Thankful Everyday

I survived the Rocky Run! It was so cold that day and I made it! I will actually train next time I have a race lol! I hope you guys don't mind these personal post but I just felt like writing a lot more lately.  I can't believe Thanksgiving is next week! When did that sneak up on us? Next time we know, Christmas will be here and then 2018!! It is crazy how this year has gone by so fast. This time last year I was counting down until my wedding and we're coming up on 6 months in December! 

 It just seems like this is the only time of the year that people are thankful and very giving. I know it is the season of that but what about the rest of the year? You should be thankful all year for everything, even the small things. It really didn't hit me until adulthood about being thankful for everything. There were moments where I wasn't working and looking like crazy for a job but I was thankful to still have a roof over my head and food to eat. I was thankful when I was working again and didn't take it for granted. I used to see people complaining about getting up and going to work and I was wishing I had a job to complain about. 

There are some people in this word who do not have a place to call home, don't know where their next meal is coming from and don't have the luxury of having the issue of deciding what to wear. You know know what could happen tomorrow or weeks, months from now. I'm just so thankful for life, love, employment, family and friends. I'll be celebrating the holidays as a Mrs. this year and I'm excited! I'm just thankful for the things I do have now. 

What are you thankful for? Comment below and let me know. Have a great start to the week and see you guys Thursday!!

HAVE YOU CHECKED OUT MY PREVIOUS POST??

Okay, I'm doing Vlogmas this year but going to do it a little different. I'll let you guys know but I'm excited.

My son has two pages front and back now for his Christmas list? Who is getting all these toys? Lol!!

My friends and I are going to IMATS next year!! I haven't been the past two or three years! I'm excited.

    I'm thankful for my family and friends that have stuck by my side through thick and thin. Also for my two nephews and the fact that I have been a pretty big part of their lives and get to see them grow from babies to little boys. I'm also thankful for the strength my mother has taught me to have and the life that I have made for myself.

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...
