Bootcamp Fun
Do you know those work out videos where the instructor is teaching and behind them are three people doing different variations of the same workout exercise. They suggest you follow based on your level. Well that’s what it’s like working out with these three.
Most of the time when we are finished they ask me to grade them based on how well they did.
It’s a great and funny way to start our day.
Enjoy The Present
Everything is temporary...even love.
I was talking to my friend the other day who started dating again. He’s been great at helping me in the past. He’s a secure attachment style. I had my share of being anxious attachment style that I always envied his capability to date so securely. I remember when I first met him a year and half ago we hung out for 6 hours just talking.
He really helps me look at situations differently.
It’s funny how my other best guy friend is a secure dating type as well. He recently ended a relationship and I knew the minute he said she was anxious and avoidance type at the same time I knew they wouldn’t last.
Why? Because everyone wants a relationship where two people are secure and don’t need eachother. They want to be with eachother. There’s no anxiety or tension or stress. It’s pure enjoyment. Intelligent conversation. As adults you can’t date with a 18 yr old mindset. You have to be mature and secure and so many people do not date that way. Married people
don’t even have adult relationships with eachother. So many date with that younger mind set that creates unnecessary arguments and drama and jealousy.
You have to break the cycle. Everything is temporary you never know how long situations will last but the more secure you become and independent the better off you’ll be.
So many girlfriends I have are avoidance dating types. Focused only on career and themselves. They don’t have time to date. It’s not true. I am divorced mom
Of 3. I work and homeschool all day. It’s not the idea situation but I still make time to date. So it’s not about time. It’s about avoiding something. It’s about saying I am going to stay in my happy bubble alone because I want to avoid issues dating triggers.
I don’t recommend that either. I recommend becoming secure and happy within that you can have healthy discussions and relationships without being anxious or avoidance.
Game Night : Googly Eyes
I didn’t have any meetings planned so I took advantage of the opportunity to have some fun with the kids. I used to be really into board games with them then we took a break now we are back on the band wagon.
Last night we played Googly Eyes. https://www.goliathgames.us/product/googly-eyes/
It’s a lot of fun. It’s like Pictionary but you have to wear these glasses with different distorted lens while you’re trying to draw. It’s pretty funny.
My mom joined us and asked how difficult can it be. Well when she put on the glasses she went to grab the pen and instead grabbed the pen top to write with.
Needles to say it’s not easy to draw while the images are all distorted. There are three different difficulties you can land on and you have to change the lens to match the card. Yellow is easy. Green is medium. Blue is hard.
You also have a set timer. You get 15 secs for easy. 30 secs for medium and 45 secs for hard.
Check it out if you’re looking for a fun game with the kids.
What games do you recommend?
My Wish For You
I hope the wait is worth it. I hope you have goodness in all of yours days. I hope whatever you’re holding on to has been worth your sacrifice. I hope you find what you’ve been waiting for.

Actions Speak Louder Than Words
I reached a stage where I only want to be around those who make me feel good and help me grow along my journey.
Aim for that.
Walk away from anything that isn’t that.
Heal For Yourself
They may have not caused your pain but it’s your responsibility to heal to be able to accept their love.
I touch on this subject a lot because I see so many people who aren’t healed. Who have a ton of triggers and pain.
No one is responsible for your healing. I still am healing. Everyday I work on it. It’s not my boyfriend’s responsibility to heal me. It’s mine and I can’t accept him and trust or love him if I didn’t heal my wounds.
It’s a lot of work loving someone who is carrying hurt and pain. I have before and it’s exhausting. Don’t do that to people. Heal. Be ok with your situation and learn and grow. Heal so you can fully love and accept love.

What’s Your Word?
I keep seeing this. Over and over. Articles. Posts. Even the image above is from a post I saw. So I finally jumped on the bandwagon and thought about it.
What’s my word for 2021? I don’t think it’s so much of the word but the result. What do you want for this year or change for your life? When you think of your life what word shows up.
Enough was mine. It’s all enough. I want to accept things fully as being enough. I am enough. Everything around me enough. My relationship is enough. My duties as a parent and worker is enough.
Meaning it’s the best of me and I will know it’s enough. I have all I need and want at this time in my life. This chapter. I have enough. I am not going to strive to get more material things or push myself to exhaustion. I am already enough. You’re enough too.
I have just the right amount of things.
I never thought I would reference to it like that. Just the word kept coming up in my mind. Enough. I have just enough to make me feel completely whole. Not lacking. Not too much. Just enough.
It actually feels amazing to say that.
*Meaning of Enough: 1 : in or to a degree or quantity that satisfies or that is sufficient or necessary for satisfaction : sufficiently. 2 : fully, quite he is qualified enough for the position. 3 : in a tolerable degree she sang well enough
Happy Sunday
Be proud of how far you’ve come. You’re not who you were. That’s progress. That’s healing. That’s growth. 💓

Spread Some Love Even In Sad Times
A tragic situation happened this week and my cousin turned it into spreading love. She baked us all heart shaped cookies and did the rounds of dropping them off to all of us.
When a time to heal meant to spread love it showed how you can change some situations around, how short life can be and it’s never too much to tell people you love them.
Spread love whenever you can. Even when sad situations approach you.
Words Matter
Ever sit and think and then replay a conversation in your head?
Like you can hear their voice and a wave of emotions come over you. You wish you responded differently or didn’t fake it as if you didn’t let it brother you. But then when the conversation replays in your head that’s when you wish you didn’t take it. You wish you responded differently.
Words matter. Always. Watch how you make someone feel. One day your words will replay in their head. Your words do matter.
Always!
