When you’re struggling to get started with chores/ cleaning; find something small that doesn’t require much energy. Pick a chore that you can do sitting down with your favorite show on. Movement inspires more movement. Getting started with something, anything creates that dopamine that you get from accomplishing a task. Use that little chemical boost to start on the next task. You know you will feel better when the laundry is folded, the dishes are done or the floor is swept. Bless yourself and your family by starting that first task! You can do this!

When do you start thinking about what you’re making for dinner?
I am a stay at home with years of experience and now I am nanny to my grandson several days a week.
🥘plan tomorrow’s dinner tonight!
Pull the meat out of the freezer and put it in the fridge.
🥩I defrosted my ground beef over night. His second nap of the day I mixed all my ingredients together for meatballs and stuck that in the fridge. I peeled my potatoes and put them in some water and then went to put my feet up until he woke up!!
🌟when it was time I used my scoop to form the meatballs, put them in the pan and popped them in the oven. I started the potatoes in my Instant Pot. Dinner was ready in 20 minutes!

Tech doesn’t mean you can’t pull it in to your decor style. I will probably end up painting this candle holder but I love the style and size. It make a nice home for my Google Home

I LOVE coffee. I love iced lattes but the really yummy ones are high in sugar. This morning I got creative and made my own. It needs a little tweaking but it is really good. The protein shake actually frothed really well! Look at that foam! 🤩

I love being outside. I also love creating spaces that make our home a place we WANT to be…our sanctuary.
This is an item that has absolutely helped create that feeling for me.
I got my Eno hammock on prime days and then my mom bought me the stand as a birthday gift. I LOVE it!!!
The stand is quick and easy to put together. I actually timed myself taking it down and packing it away. Less than 3 min 45 sec!!! And its just as quick to set up
It’s comes with a carrying bag so you can take it with you camping.
I spend many a morning sipping my coffee in my hammock.

MAKE YOUR STYLE LAST and protect your hair. Saturday afternoon I did my hair…the whole shebang: wash, condition, apply root lifter, blow dry and then style and spray with brushable hair spray. This pic was taken THIS morning—Monday morning and the only thing I did was comb out the back and re-establish my part.
My trick: my silk turban. You can use a turban or a bonnet. It can be silk or satin. They work equally well.
Holds your style while sleep and prevents breakage when you toss and turn throughout the night. Some people say their hair is less greasy looking after using a bonnet at night. Sooo many benefits.
⭐️⭐️⭐️
The link to my silk turban is in the comments. It’s comfortable and stays on all night.

Decor doesnt need to be expensive

Some of my absolute favorite pieces are things I’ve crafted myself.
Pictured are some wine bottles I painted and then added some wooden tags and ribbon to. pretty sure the tags were half off when I bought them.
The little bucket with heart bouquet was from Dollar Tree. The felt hearts were half off at Michaels Stores

I love for my home to welcoming not just for my guests but for my family and myself.
Create a sanctuary you and your loved ones can’t wait to get back to 💖
