Resolute Beauty Blogger- Decemeber 2014

 
 
 
 
 
Happy Rainy Tuesday!! Christmas will be here Thursday and I haven't wrapped one present yet lol!! I have so much to do as always lol!! Well here is my monthly progress of my blogging and personal goals I have set for myself. Let's see how I did thins month!!
 
Blogging Goals
 
1. Set A Blogging Schedule - I'm still sticking to my Sunday, Tuesday and Friday schedule.
 
2. Get New Calendar and Blogging Book- I'm currently planning post for January and possibly a giveaway since my birthday is next month! I've been taking notes on products I've been using, ideas I have and keeping track of everything!!
 
3. Learn More About Blogging- I've been researching on how to drive more traffic to my blog, be more engaging, and how change a few things. I've found a lot of good information!!
 
4. Attend A Blogging Event- I've still been unsuccessful at this. I have been looking around but hopefully I find something soon. My friends and I got our tickets to IMATS next year, I'm so excited!!
 
5. Change Up The Current Style- This is still in the works but I have made a Facebook page for my blog, you can follow Here!!  I'm hoping to make a few changes to how my blog looks and figure out how to get the social media buttons on my page, just gotta get over to my cousin's house soon.
 
6. Proof Read Better- I've been doing okay with this, don't see as many mistakes as before.
 
Personal Goals
 
1. Wear Dresses and Skirts More Often- I forgot how much fun it was to really put outfits together and dress up. I've been wearing plenty of dresses and skirts this month. It makes me feel more girly.
 
2. Wear Makeup More Often- I've been doing this and started posting Face Of The Day on Instagram and my Facebook page. I'm trying to put a dent in what I have before IMATS lol!!
 
3. Use BBW Stash- I've been wearing Japanese Cherry Blossom all month and started wearing Twisted Peppermint this week. I'm going to try not to buy anymore body care stuff at the semi-annual sale, lol!!
 
4. Be More Prepared and Organized- I've been half and half with this one. I try to prepare lunches and stuff the night before but some nights I'm so tired, I don't feel like it. I have been waking up early most mornings to get ready but sometimes I will sleep past that alarm lol!
 
5. Not Stress So Much- I have a more positive attitude and outlook on life. I know I sometimes dwell in the past but I need to look forward. No major meltdowns this month, I've been good!
 
6. Finding Myself and Figuring Out What I Want To Do- I'm still job searching like crazy. I'm in the process of rewriting my resume. I did have an interview but didn't get the job. I was just happy that someone called my in for one. I know more are coming soon and that right job will too.
 
Well that is it for the Resolute Beauty Blogger for December. I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and hope you enjoy time with your family and have a great holiday. I will back next Tuesday with a new post. I want to enjoy my time off and the holiday season with my family. See you guys next Tuesday!!

Sometimes its hard.....

You know when you keep thinking of something and you just feel like you have to get it out? That was me before sitting down to write this post. I had something else planned to write but I kept thinking...sometimes its hard and it just evolved from there. We all heard the sayings, life isn't fair, life is hard and so on. Sometimes life can be hard but we don't experience it for long. There are so many things that I want to do but I know I can't do a million things at once. I can't just pick and go anymore, I'm someone's parent now. There are times I want to but I know things have to be planned out now. I will get to those place I want to go, just have to be patient and plan it out. It seems like we focus so much on what is hard about life that we forget about the easy stuff. We forget sometimes about all the good things that happen and to be grateful for getting through those rough patches. You may not like your living situation but you have a roof over ...

On a personal note....Update on Blogging and Personal Goals

Happy Football Sunday!! I hope everyone has been enjoying the weekend and getting ready to celebrate Thanksgiving!! I can't believe it is this week! I can't wait to spend time with family! I thought about giving an update to the personal and blogging goals I set for myself last year with the Resolute Beauty Blogger series. You can check out my results post  HERE!!  I completed this in May of this year so let's see how I've been doing since then. Blogging Goals 1. Attend A Blogging Event- Since then I have not attended another event. I was so happy when I did find my one event to attend. I have been keeping in contact with those bloggers I met and reading their blogs. I have been finding events but there are scheduling conflicts. I hope to find another one very soon. 2. Set A Blogging Schedule- I am still sticking to my Sunday, Thursday and every other Friday schedule. It has been really working with my hectic schedule I already have. 3. Change Up Current Style-...

Taking a break.......

On Tuesday I did mention that I had some exciting news to share. I have been working part time for a while and searching like crazy for full time work. I was starting to get a little frustrated but never gave up. Well a full time opportunity came up at my current job and I am now full time status!!! I was just so overjoyed and thankful. I will have a more stable income, I can go back to school and start to make some moves. Then I started to get a little overwhelmed. How was I going to juggle being a full-time working mom, grad student, blogger and balance everything else. It has been a while since I had a full time schedule and based my blogging schedule around my days off during the week. I start my full time hours next week and just need to take a small break away from Naturalle Drea. I really didn't want to because I love this so much but I need to see how to handle everything. I will most likely change my blogging schedule around. Thank you to those who have been encouraging to...
