Grace, Love & Kindness + Life.

Today has been a really great day. And nothing really 'extrodinary' has happened. I woke up, thanked God, spent time with Jesus, my husband left for work, my son left for school... I ate oatmeal for breakfast. I gave Max a bath, did the dishes from last nights dinner I made. My hair appt was at noon. I got home a little after 3pm from that- of course that always makes me feel like a new person. Kaylee Mosley is amazing, go see her! So as I sit here and called a couple people I have on 24 day challenges, and made my list for tomorrow, I figured out why it's been a really great day- aside from my hair being fresh and fall-ish colored.. I am BLESSED. I am alive. I am HEALTHY. I am in pretty good shape. I'm apart of the BEST company around the world- more than just vitamins y'all.... My kids are healthy, happy and LOVED. I have a fabulous husband who loves me more than life itself. I have amazing friends that truly care about me. Then, as I t...

It's astonishing to me as to how much technology advances daily. Do you realize that the Ipod was released only in 2001? 13 years ago YESTERDAY to be exact. Yes, October 23rd 2001. That's the original bulky Ipod y'all... Looks like this Raise your hand if you had one?? I didn't. Matter fact, it was 2001 when I had my first cell phone, and I shared it with my then husband. It looks like this... True story. My how we've advanced. This photo below, displays life BEFORE an Ipod, BEFORE CD's were big... BEFORE a cell phone was anywhere near affordable for your everyday person.. Matter fact, check out the antenna. Circa 1998 here folks... my 15 year old self. So the point I'm going for here, is we're so advanced, we can't even leave the house without the latest and greatest cellar device... I myself own the latest released Samsung Galaxy S5. And it's amazing.. . And that's not even apple. The late Steve Jobs did an awesom...

The day of 'No Facebook Wednesday' or as I'm saying it (it'll probably catch on quick... NFBW) Use it, it's free---- You're welcome   has officially passed. I survived. Did you? Screen shot of this morning- still no facebook app on my home screen. I must say, I got SO much done yesterday. Maybe to take my mind off the fact that my addiction was put in the back pocket. It was defiantly will power. I talked to my friends who joined me, and encouraged them to keep pushing! I found that the hardest part of my day was ( laugh.. go ahead ) the bathroom, and at red lights. True story. It for sure made it easier that I wasn't seeing the big F every time I swpyed to look at at my phone... Other wise I'd see this count go up- this is as of this morning. It's almost 9 and I've still gone without . As I said, a very productive day. I believe I will do this again, and hopefully get to where I don't have to feel the need to go on face...

I wrote in my journal all weekend while in Tyler, Texas. My husband's stompin' grounds from birth until 20 somethings. I was pretty proud of myself. I even picked up the Jon Acuff book I have been dying to read.  Then as I wrote, and as I tried to read, and talk to the nurses about what I do for a living... my phone would stare at me in the face, as it's doing at this very moment. You see I had something awesome to write about, or at least I thought so.. .  But then that little smart phone device would call my name and the F on the home screen that stands for 'FACEBOOK' or as I like to call it 'FRANKLY I will suck all your time away from you' app. How do we discharge ourselves from social media? Where is the break? I don't know why I feel the need to check it when I see even '1' notification on it.  Now back it up real quick, I'm not dissing on Facebook, or social media at all. It's been a really great marketing tool for us ...
