A Look Back

March 15, 2011 | Uncategorized

I thought it would be fun today to do a look back at where I was a week ago, month ago, and year ago today! To me this is one of the fun things about blogging. I can always look back and remember fun memories!

Well…a week ago today I had just moved into my house and didn’t have internet yet, so I blogged a message from my phone..Please Don’t Leave Me!

A month ago today was February 15, the day after Valentine’s Day. I blogged about When Things Don’t Go As Planned. I was very frustrated as I wrote this post, dealing with handling adversity and when plans change/don’t go my way. This has been a very trying year for us and I haven’t always had the best attitude, even though I know I am the one in control of my attitude! Just call me stubborn! I am happy to report SOME things have gotten better, but we are still dealing with some “changed plans” that are hard to swallow. As is life I guess! I am really working at trying to change the way I react to negative situations to have more JOY!

A year ago today I was in DISNEYWORLD with my mom! Sad times. Why did I remind myself of that? I didn’t blog that week, but I can tell you we had fun in Disney, but it was SO CROWDED, COLD and WINDY! I vowed to NEVER go in March/Spring break again! HERE is the post I wrote when I got back. Apparently it was a quite chilly early spring!

Speaking of Disney, the countdown is on for our cruise! 71 days and counting! Seriously, I’m counting. I have a countdown ticker on my phone!

Isn’t it funny how things change in as quick as a week, or as long as a year? I am a sentimental fool so I love looking back! My favorite way to look back is to see when I am improving in something, so be on the lookout for before pictures for my 6 weeks to 6 pack abs pictures!

    It is crazy how fast time changes things….and when I think back to last year, I was extremely busy with an infant and hadn’t gotten serious about getting back into shape yet!

    Time flies for sure! I love how we can learn so much in a month or even just a week! Can’t wait to see the cruise pics! 🙂

    So jealous of your cruise!! My boyfriend and I were invited to go on one this summer but it’s not going to work out.

    Did you say somewhere that you used to work for Disney?? What did you do there?? My boyfriends sister is “friends with Mickey.”

I started noticing little signs during my normal day. Just occasional bloating, gas, and that slightly “off” feeling. So instead of ignoring it, I listened. I slowed down, moved more consistently, and added Align Probiotic to my routine.

It’s one capsule a day and the #1 doctor-recommended probiotic brand for over 15 years‡. I started taking Align to help relieve my occasional gas, bloating, and stomach discomfort* and now I feel more comfortable moving through my day. @alignprobiotic

And now… it finally will be. 🤍

We’re not leaving Tennessee, just making a local move that puts us closer to my daughter’s school, closer to our day-to-day life, and honestly closer to the version of life I’ve been hoping for since we moved here. (Aka not so much time in the car!) 

Still Knoxville. New chapter. Lots of boxes. Please pray. 🏡📦

Between dogs, snacks that never make it to a plate, and whatever is happening in my entryway on a daily basis… I needed something that could actually keep up in one go. This one’s been doing the heavy lifting so I’m not doing 12 different cleanups for the same mess. 

Life doesn’t happen in neat, single-surface moments. From pet hair to crumbs to tracked-in grass, real homes have layered messes. The BISSELL PowerClean DualBrush™ is designed to handle it all in one pass without switching tools or going over the same spot twice. 

Promotion: List Price $359.99, on sale for $259.99 ($100 off) from 4/5–5/30. Limited time only, don’t miss it. Link in bio to shop while the deal lasts 👀

I clipped the 4x fuel points digital coupon on the Kroger app, grabbed a Mastercard gift card at Kroger, and turned a quick errand into a little win-win situation by adding in a handmade colored card and personalized note. She gets to pick exactly what she wants. 💛 

I get 4X fuel points while I’m already out running around (because of course I am). Simple, thoughtful, and honestly kind of perfect. 
Head to your local Kroger, clip the coupon, and grab a Visa or Mastercard gift card, but the offer is only good through May 12! Link is in my bio!

Disney dads aren’t born… they’re created one character meal at a time. 🏰 

Tag a Disney dad in your life! (Maybe one you helped create? 😂👀)

Lately our go-to has been Zbar Protein Snack Bars, especially the new Strawberries ‘N Creme flavor that is made with organic whole grain oats, real fruit, and protein to help support growing kids. It’s a snack she loves and I feel good about too. 

It’s a great little reset so she can get right back to doing what she does best, playing her heart out 💕
