Hey y’all! Thank you for stopping by! I missed you! As you can see I missed a couple of Flashback Friday’s. I’m hoping I can get back into the groove of things though.

I am so happy that it is a new month (and my birthday month at that.) 2015 has been really crazy for me and June was really THE WORST month that I have had in awhile. I got out of it alive so I am trying not to dwell on it too much but it was a really rough month for me. I’m not going to go into details at the moment, but maybe at a later time I will talk about it. Mainly I had a bunch of health issues that really took their toll on me. My advice? Take the best care of your body that you can and be happy for your well being.

This week the weather has been kicking my ass. I’m still recovering from my health issues and this heat is really slowing that down. It has been so hot and muggy so I have been feeling exhausted and miserable. I returned to work on Monday after a week off and my body was fighting everything that I had to do. When it was close to the end of my day of work I was so relieved I just wanted to sit in my car and sleep. *sigh*

Anywho, I’m looking forward to this weekend because lots of time with family & friends and next weekend is my birthday so I am looking forward to celebrating that. I hope that you had a great week and enjoy your weekend!

What do you have planned for the weekend? Let me know in the comments.

Hey y’all! Happy Friday! I hope this past week was a great one and I hope that you enjoy your weekend as well. Any graduates out there reading? If so, congratulations! Let me know what you have planned next in the comments section.

My sister graduated from Community College recently and my nephew graduates from Preschool this weekend. I can’t believe it has been almost 20 years since I have graduated from high school! Where has the time gone?

If you read my post last week (or follow me on Twitter or Facebook) you know that I haven’t been feeling well lately so I have mostly been laid up in bed feeling like crap. I got a ear infection, sinus issues and other crappity things going on. BLEH

In and out of feeling miserable I was catching up on blog reading around the web and here are a few of my favorite reads from this week:

Pulling Yourself Out of A Ditch: I really needed to read this at this time because after last summer and my health scare I promised myself that I would pull back and start taking better care of myself which also includes working less and living more. This was a great reminder!

The Daily System That Makes Me Get Things Done: Great tips on getting your days organized and getting things DONE!

3 Reasons we need to slow down in life + business: Maya’s 1st reason is taking care of your health. Since I am working on a blog post about that (and my personal experiences) it really resonated with me.

Be kind to your self.

Hey y’all. Welcome to another Friday. I hope you had an amazing week.

This week has been a rough one for me. I was able to make it to work a couple of days but by Wednesday the yucky feelings I have been having lately really knocked me out.

I woke up for work feeling extremely fatigued, congested, my body ached everywhere and I had the worst earache that I have had in a long time.

According to the doctor my ear canal is swollen and I may be having other complications. I have to get some blood work done this weekend to get more answers.

Until then I have medication, vitamins, ear drops and lots of rest to get me feeling better again. If I have the energy this weekend I would like to go walk to the beach and relax on the sand.

I hope all of you are doing well and thank you for stopping by. If you notice people around you are getting sick take some Zinc & Vitamin C. Don’t wait until it is too late.

What do you have planned for this weekend?

Aloha! Welcome to Flashback Friday’s here at my blog. This is my weekly update on what has been going on in my life during the week. Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope you get a chance to look around at the other posts that I have written. If you’re interested in subscribing you may do so on the right hand side (you may have to scroll down a bit to find it.) I look forward to getting to know you!

Last weekend was super busy for me and I loved every minute of it. I attended 2 different graduation parties, a graduation dinner (at Red Lobster where I enjoyed way too many biscuits) and we also had a BBQ at our home which ended with making s’mores over the fire. I got to spend a lot of time with family so it was a great end to a hectic week. By Saturday evening I was worn out but it was great because I was able to sleep in on Sunday.

On Sunday night I planned to go to bed extremely early, but we decided to watch a movie instead. I’m glad that I stayed up because the pick of the evening was Annie (2014) since nobody had seen it yet. Growing up I watched the other version many, many times and I was not disappointed at all with this latest version. I’m not very big on musicals (as an adult) but I really enjoyed this version. The cast was great and I would definitely watch it again. I can’t believe the one I grew up watching came out in 1982! It has been awhile since I watched it and would love to watch that one as well.

What are your plans for Memorial Day weekend?

Welcome to another Flashback Friday!! I hope you had a wonderful week. Mine was a little bumpy but nothing that I couldn’t handle. I ended up with an earache this week which made me feel miserable and not want to do anything but curl up in a ball. Being a grownup is hard sometimes – you can’t always stay home and get your Mommy to take care of you. You have to push through sometimes and go to work – so I did. Unfortunately I haven’t been getting a good nights rest very much so I have been walking around like a zombie for awhile. Even though sometimes I can sneak in a nap I still feel really tired. Hopefully this weekend I can spend some extra hours snoozing so that my body really feels refreshed and ready for next week by Monday morning. I like to be alert and ready for the day when I have to work not dragging.

I really like my job – it can be tedious at times and a lot of information to take in but I am enjoying it. I am hoping that I am doing a good job (they haven’t gotten rid of me yet, so that is a good sign.) It is nice that I get to work from home a lot of the time and it is not as stressful as my old job was. I hope that I can stay and grow with them for awhile. Yay for me! It is actually a bit of a relief not being in charge anymore. I loved being a manager and training new people but sometimes it was too much going on but being the manager I couldn’t step back and take time whenever I pleased. So this has been a really great experience for me.

Besides working I have been trying to get my life more organized. I want to change my room around a bit and hopefully get a desk to put in there if I can find the space. I have been trying to get rid of things that I no longer use to make more space and I am also scanning as much paperwork as I can so that I can shred the hard copies so I have less paper mess as well. I have a lot of plans for how I want my life to run by the time I return to school and the more organized everything is the smoother the transition back should be.

I am super excited for this weekend because a couple of people close to me are graduating from college – including my sister. She is getting her Associate’s Degree and I am so proud of her. After the summer she is headed to Nursing school so in a few more years we get to celebrate with her again. This weekend is going to be full of a lot of celebrating and time with friends and family members. I hope that my body is ready for this because I know by Sunday I am gonna be full of joy but exhausted!

Any 2015 graduates out there? If so congratulations on all of your hard work!

How was your week? Anything exciting happen?
