Life lately…life has been a little chaotic lately. I try to be as transparent and honest on this blog as I can be, but sometimes I don’t talk about things that are super personal because I don’t feel comfortable doing so or because I’m protecting my family’s privacy. That being said I would like to ask for prayers and/or good thoughts/vibes for my Dad. He is having a procedure done on Monday and I would really appreciate it. Thanks!!
Back to a little life update…this past weekend was my baby niece’s first birthday!!! My sweet MJ is seriously the sweetest, happiest baby I have ever seen. She hardly ever gets upset, she loves food and stuffed animals, and is all smiles all the time. Love you sweet MJ!!!
School. Ugh. I think I have a bad case of senioritis and I still have a year to go. I just have absolutely no motivation to finish any of my work and there are only a few weeks left in this semester. I need to get over myself and just finish strong.
I have so many posts planned for this blog but I can’t seem to get around to posting them. I think my senioritis is carrying over to blogging. I am also planning a new blog design and have some other fun things in store for my little space here. One day soon…
I had an Invisalign appointment yesterday and my dentist says I am progressing nicely and I got my next three sets of trays. When I finish those I will be halfway done!!! That’s super exciting to me!!
I also went to the chiropractor yesterday and got adjusted again. When I got home I used Deep Blue essential oil and Deep Blue rub on my neck and then I took the most amazing nap of my life. If you are sore in any way from whatever then I highly suggest trying Deep Blue. It’s amazing!!
Work? Well it’s work. Neither bad nor fabulous, not really too busy but not slow by any means. Just work. That’s a good thing though, I like “just work”.
I have been eating out a lot lately. I really need to get back on the cooking dinner and meal planning train. I am just feeling so uninspired in the kitchen lately. I am accepting any and all suggestions for your favorite easy recipes!!
So I guess that’s what I have been up to lately, what about you??

Apart from the school part my life lately is similar to yours. Work is busy but I am ok with that, too many posts to post but not actually finished with the content.
Prays for your Dad.
Chubskulit Rose says
I will include your dad in my prayers. I know how it feels to have someone in the family not feeling well.
Paula Parker says
What a cutie you have! It seems like life is soooo busy lately. I am glad you found a great product to help you out.
Terry says
Speaking of the chiropractor. I need to either exercise more or go to mine. I would rather exercise, but sometimes I get lazy.
Jeanine says
Your baby niece is so sweet. Happy birthday to her. I’m so sorry to hear about your dad. I will for sure keep him in my thoughts for Monday!

Running, running, and running some more. That pretty much describes the past couple of weeks!

That looks like such a fun Birthday party, I really love the cake design a lot; it is so cute!
Chanelle says
Sending your dad lots of good vibes!! I’m no longer in school, but suffer from workitis. :-) Did you purchase Deep Blue at your local retailer? I recently injured my back and sure could use some of that!
Liz Mays says
Your niece is super cute! I’ve been on my feet all week trying to get things done. It should calm down soon.
Kathy says
Cute photos! I’ve mainly been working on blogging. Haven’t been doing much else lately.
Lisa Bristol says
I will keep your Dad in my prayers. I hope everything goes well for him.

I feel like it’s Groundhog Day…every day! I think that happens after you have kids! And to think that BEFORE kids I ‘didn’t have enough time in a day to do everything!’ I WISH now! lol!
Nina Say says
I vividly remember the feeling of senioritis. It was no fun at all. Hang in there because it is totally worth it!
breanna says
Thinking of you. First birthday, oh my goodness what great memories! Life lately sure is hectic but so worth it!
Ann Bacciaglia says
The first birthday is always a great day. It is always hard to believe that a year has gone by so fast.
lisa says
What cute pics! I can’t wait for constant warm weather and the end of my kids soccer season! It has been a crazy week with games every day.
kendall says
Such a cutie! I love the photos – and essential oils are a favorite of mine lately – just can’t get enough!
Kelly Hutchinson says
I remember when I was in school and trying to take are of the house and family and work too. It was so overwhelming at times. You keep up the hard work!

Life seems to become more chaotic the older we get doesn’t it? Your little niece is just adorable, love the Minnie Mouse theme her birthday party had :)
Robin {Masshole Mommy} says
That birthday party looks like so much fun. I will definitely be sending good thoughts to you dad and your family.
Mistee Dawn says
Prayers fro your Dad and Happy Birthday to that gorgeous little baby! I love Deep Blue, too!
Roselynn says
Our lives seem pretty similar except for still being at school. Though it hasn’t been too long since I graduated so I know the feeling very well.
Rosey says
Happy Birthday to your niece. She’s a cutie. I am definitely sending good thoughts your way for your dad!
Gabriel says
Chaos is a good way to describe it, we are trying to surf the wave of madness here too. Kids going a million different directions, work, blogging, creating….
