I have another day off from my 9-5, when I planned my calendar back in July I thought we’d camp longer - but “due to circumstances” two days was plenty. However, I love that I have a day that I can totally dedicate to looking forward, to setting goals, to thinking about all my people who have fallen in love with oils with me, to meet needs, send happy mail, remind others how to use what they have already bought.
Yes, laundry, packing up Halloween decorations, grocery shopping, and all those mundane activities are on my list too - but they are not nearly as fun.
Putting a few drops of Valor in my diffuser this morning to promote positive energy as I set out to tackle my goals this week.

Brené Brown said, “ I don’t have to chase extraordinary moments to find happiness- it’s right in front of me if I’m paying attention and practicing gratitude.”
As we process the election and enter the holiday season let’s be intentional about cultivating gratitude! The Manchester Beach KOA is a destination our family has visited for years on Veterans Day Holiday. This picture is from the first year we went and had the pleasure of a hayride. It is a get away that allows us to reset, walk on the beach, disconnect from WiFi and sit by the fire. Although we typically get to sing Karaoke and and play competitive frisbee golf we can zig or zag to make sure we meet COVID guidelines and safety precautions and still have an amazing time away. We are grateful KOA has their fancy Kabins with restrooms inside.
Share below what you are most grateful for today.
It’s appropriate to share this week is International Stress Awareness Week!
I don’t know about you but right now it’s more important than ever to be aware of how stress is affecting us. Seems pretty appropriate to me!
Between being a mom to two teens still learning at home, a special education administrator to 20 teachers still “distance teaching”, and watching our county that is in a deep divide, managing stress is very real.
Shout out if you want me to share some of my routines and tips for reducing stress throughout the week.
