July Goal Results and August Goals

I still can't get over my son turning 5 next week and going to kindergarten. It seems like I just brought him home and just staring at him wondering what to do next. He has just grown so much and looking forward to watching him grow more. Today I am updating you on my July Goals and the ones I have set for August. You can see the previous post HERE!!

Get through a book

Well if you count my textbook, then no I have not lol! I really thought I could get through this one but it couldn't fit in my schedule. I have started reading this daily devotional book that one of friends wrote last week. So far I am doing well with that. I really miss reading, hopefully I can fit in in my crazy schedule lol!!


Stick to schedule for schoolwork and blogging

I am so happy that I made this schedule because it has been super helpful. I feel so much more organized and in charge of my time management. I don't feel so overwhelmed and crazy now lol! I just love that I did this and have been sticking to it!


No meat during the week

This was a big challenge for me but I've eaten no meat for Lent and got through it. There were only a couple days that I forgot but I did so well with this.


August Goals

Try out some of those Tasty recipes floating around on Facebook lol
Be more prepared for the next day
Stick with morning workout
Practice wing liner more often

So that is it for my monthly goals. Did you have goals set for last month? How did you make out? Comment below and let me know. See you guys Thursday!

HAVE YOU CHECKED OUT MY JULY FAVORITES??


~**Drea Notes**~

Have you been watching the Olympics? I love gymnastics and can't wait for track to start.

I've been trying to eat healthier and snack better. Its so hard when I want cookies and doughnuts. It is hard trying to find something to curb the sugar cravings lol!

Can't believe my blog is turning 3 at the end of the month!

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...

Updated: How I currently store my makeup

Hey guys! Back in January, I took everyone through my entire, well majority of my makeup collection. I showed how I used to store my makeup. You can see that original post  here.  I had everything stored in my empty Birchboxes. It was working for a while until I went to two makeup shows and I didn't have a place for everything! As I was cleaning one day, I saw that had this tall storage bin with stuff that I don't even use anymore and thought it would be a great place to store all my makeup and still have it organized. Here is a picture of where my makeup is currently stored. I believe I purchased this 7 drawer unit at Walmart years ago and glad I kept it! It has come in handy. I'll take you through what is in each drawer. I'll start with the top of the unit where all my brushes, setting sprays (that I haven't used yet lol), OCC lip tars( I couldn't find anything to store them in but that red cup lol. I'll have to decorate it later.) and other items...

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 ...
