30 Things for Turning 30

I'm 30.  I know 30 things.
My 30th birthday was a month ago.  I meant to post sooner for this however, tomato, tomahto, September, November.

I am compiling 30 things I feel pretty certain about.  You know, since it's legit that I'm like a wise adult officially.  I mean, all my cousins who are at least 6 years younger than think I'm 35+ already so there's that.

1. My fave: Water. Drink it, live it, love it.
2. Smile often.
3. Eat breakfast.
4. Read fiction.
5. Don't eat a cookie because it's there. Enjoy treats as just that; a treat that's special and one you can't have any old time.
6. Faith and sweat even a playing field.
7. It's not bad to have 1 credit card for those crazy moments that can come up.
8. Buy the shoes.
9. Eat eggs.
10. Meditate. It's mind, eye, physically opening to much more.
11. Go the distance with education.
12. Laughter is so good and so necessary.
13. Give time to people more than gifts.
14. Traveling really is worth any expense over material purchases.
15. Workout some where, some how, some way.
16. Don't forget where you come from.
17. Work hard, be nice. End of story.
18. You can't unring the bell; think before speaking.
19. Wear the "wrong shade" according to Cosmo if you dig it.
20. Eat clean more than not.
21. Share with a friend. Bring an extra breakfast sandwich for your office buddy.
22. Ask for forgiveness and grant when you can.
23. Stay in touch with your family/friends not in immediate distance.
24. If you can make a living off of a passion do it.
25. Spend time as a server.  You'll meet all kinds of people and learn how to hustle.
26. Organize ambitions.
27. Just drive sometimes.  Windows down, music up.
28. Send thank you notes.
29. Hug hard and full.
30. Wake up every day and start with gratefulness.

To the next 30, friends.

Until we meet again,
M

Self care reset

We all hear the buzzwords self care more than ever these days. Every where you turn, a lifestyle blogger, health guru, or magazine article shares insight on ways to treat yo self to some basic T. While I love modern discussions as much as the next girl, I’m aware sometimes it just doesn’t fit and you have to reset what isn’t working. For example, some weeks I am just done by the tine Friday hits. Hell, a rough Wednesday or Thursday has crept in there, too, requiring a pause and reflection for how best to naturally beat a funk or a “feeling of less than stellar”. Here my top self care reset ideas for your consideration: Drink water: Warm it with some lemon, try some green tea for an antioxidant boost, or just plain old room temperature is a sure way to get the boost to feeling a bit better. Face it: Fewer things feel as good as a really great face mask. I love charcoal in particular lately and always feel refreshed and restored and ready to ‘face’ another day. See w...

Simple blessings

I’m lying in bed, next to a snoring husband and my baby girl dogter sprawled out cozy as can be, while the rain falls down upon our roof. Gone are the days of spending a Saturday night downtown at a club, throwing beers back in a honky think, or galavanting around to anywhere with the lights on. And I’m not mad about it. Not even a little bit. There is tilt no place I’d rather be than with hunter, Roni and our comfy sweet little home happily netflixing and writing this here post. It’s a good feeling indeed. I count my blessings extra on nights like this and say a few additional prayers for love and comfort to continue on. I truly don’t ask for more than health, happiness, and love. Anything else is gravy. To simple blessings for all.
