Long time no talk! Well, three days but it feels longer.
There was no chance to post on Friday, since I was practicing my pilates class like crazy and also had teacher training that day…and all weekend, so I unfortunately didn’t have the chance to update at all. No biggie. How was everyone’s weekend? Hopefully, it was a marvelous one.
My weekend was pretty darn good over here, busy, but it was still great! Let’s get to the good stuff and take a peek at some happenings lately…
Most of the time I’d like to think I’m a pretty good person. However, I have this little quirk where I tend to blow ideas way out of proportion. No matter how little the situation or event is, I have this really unique talent where I imagine the worst case scenario. Actually, maybe beyond the worst case and it’s not something I’m too proud of.
While blowing things out of proportion isn’t something I wish to have in my life, I can sometimes appreciate this quirk as it’s a reminder that I have room for improvement. There’s always stuff I need to work on, and that will make me learn and grow during the process. And I know I can keep doing things to challenge this way of thinking. There’s also cases where this type of thinking holds me back in life, since I tend to way over-think life situations.
Once I express these thoughts, they can turn around in an instant. My fears ultimately sound completely unimaginable once I get them off my chest, and hear feedback from others. These experiences leave me feeling humbled ,and I always gain a learning experience on changing my perspective. We all deal with ebbs and flows, but we only have control over what’s happening the the moment. These are a few things that have allowed me to relax the past few days…
Happy Monday! After a few sleepless nights, I managed to sleep in until 8 AM this morning. I’d call that a major success. A very surprising, unusual, but marvelous way to start the week.
I can’t recall the last time I’ve seen that number after a nights sleep. Maybe it’s a mental thing, but I feel much more refreshed for this coming week. As I said before, I feel like I have a bunch of things happening all at one. So it’s a bit of a mix of anxiousness and excitement at the same time.
This being said, I decided to spend the weekend doing things I enjoy, spending time relaxing, instead of running around like crazy since I know that’s what I’ll be doing for the next few weeks. It was perfectly justified and sometimes spending a weekend filled with relaxation peps me up for the upcoming events.
My weekend consisted of things like…
Oh hey there. Happy Monday to everyone! Why yes, even though it’s Monday it can in fact be marvelous.
Another weekend down, another week begins! I have a feeling the next few weeks are going to FLY by since I have a lot coming up, which reminds me I need to get some things figured out within in the next few days. Such a procrastinator. It was one of those weekends where I should have been crossing things off my to do list, but instead did other things I simply enjoy more like…
Pancake Mornings…
Today happened to be quite a beautiful day. Not only was it bright and beautiful outdoors, but my mind was filled with inspiration, positivity, and radiant energy. There are lots of things I want to change in my life, but this feeling isn’t one of them. To keep up this surge of happiness, I’ve started to realize the things I need to start believing in more.
We are the only one’s standing in the way of our true happiness. Only we have the power to be the best version of ourselves. After sitting with these thoughts, I’ve come up with a list of life realizations that I believe in.
Hello Friday! And thank goodness at that, since it’s in fact a super long weekend. Not only three days off, but four. As if you didn’t know this already.

Happy Monday friends! Hope your week is off to a great start so far!
It feels like I’ve been gone forever, in reality it’s been three days. I also missed by first blog anniversary! I still can’t believe I’ve been blogging for a year now! Stay tuned later this week for a giveaway.
If you saw on twitter, my blog was in commission for most of the weekend, or so I thought. Somehow, I managed to block my own IP address from my website. Not even sure how that’s possible, as I don’t know how to black others. Oh man, this would happen to me…
In honor of a new week, let’s celebrate all the marvelous happenings lately. Monday’s are always a great time to reflect on the past week, rejoice the new things, and make new positive commitments. It’s a great start way to start the week, so let’s get to a few marvelous things.

Good morning friends!
Sometimes I find myself putting too much power and thought over things I’m “supposed” to be doing or putting too much focus on the future, when really the only thing that matters right now is the present – right now – in the moment…
Here are my list of things happening at the moment…
Eating…
Morning all!
Today wasn’t anything exceptional by any means, but after having a hard day it’s always good to look back and appreciate the mini delights in life that make me really grateful for everything in my life.
My anxiety, stress, and sleep haven’t left me feeling the best lately. However, I’m always reminded I have the control to reverse these thoughts, and come out from these situations by appreciating everything that’s delightful.
Delightful…is having the morning to sit down for a leisurely Breakfast.
