“Let’s Chat, Hello 2021”

Featured

“Hello 2021!” Happy New Year! I pray you all had an amazing Christmas.. I had such an amazing holiday and much needed break and vacation with my family.. I enjoyed every moment.. My birthday trip was also so much fun.. I’ll do a separate blog post to tell you guys all about it… The holidays looked different this year, but I pray you all were able to celebrate despite everything that’s going on.. Thank God we survived a pandemic… “2020” was indeed a stressful year for everyone of us.. We all experienced highs and lows throughout the year.. So many people lost their loved ones, jobs, etc… It was definitely a tough year.. We all experienced so many losses and many of us were left at our lowest points at times.. Through it all we survived and we are here to tell our story.. God has been so good to us in the midst of it all.. I am grateful and thankful that I didn’t get sick, and God kept me in the midst of a pandemic… He also kept my family and close loved ones safe as well.. It was beyond scary at times seeing so many people around me get sick, but I kept the faith.. I prayed daily and made sure I followed all safety guidelines and protocols.. I was also able to safely travel and I’ll share more of that in a later blog post.. Despite all the loss in 2020, I was able to accomplish a lot of my goals that I set.. I was able to finish my first year of graduate school, crushed my savings goals, paid off debt, credit score improved greatly, and a few more goals I’ll share at a later date… Through it all God is good and I’m blessed to be alive and well.. I have so many goals to accomplish this year “2021” and I’m excited and I can’t wait to share with you guys! I also graduate this year… Xoxo…

“Home Decor/Life Chat…”

Hey guys! I’ve been pretty busy with school this year… Classes during the summer were pretty tough and intense but I made it out… I have finally completed a full year of graduate school (Thank you Jesus) I have one more class to take this year and I finally get a break! I’ll start back up next year and I’ll be graduating next year.. (“Fall 2021”) and I cannot wait! I’ll be looking for (photographers, makeup artists etc.) I’m excited… This year has had its ups and downs.. We recently had a death in our family that was so unexpected… I know death happens daily but it hurts the worse when it’s so unexpected and my cousin was so young.. “

“We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.”

Please continue to keep my family in your prayers… I’m praying the rest of “2020” is better….

Home decor update: I have been doing a lot of home decor updates lately.. I recently updated my office area and I purchased the cutest: Wicker Basket Swing Chair from Overstock.com and it was on sale for $200 and they still have it! (Grab it now) I also had a 15% off coupon I found online… I’m always on the hunt for cute and affordable home decor… I also love adding plants to my home… Plants are easy, affordable and they make your place look more “polished” I also love “Real Plants” I’m not really about that “Faux Plant life”

Here are a few pictures below! I still have some updating to do! I’ll share those later! Enjoy xoxo!

Cute short set from: Material Girls and I am wearing a size “Large”
“Becoming” by Michelle Obama is an awesome read!
Perfect space to read and drink my tea! I do a lot of reading in my new class so this is the perfect spot!
