Alright, so I’ve been feeling like a Negative Nancy lately (for obvious reasons!) so today I’m focusing on some positive things from all areas of my life. The past week has been a great one and I don’t know if it’s because I’m just so busy or because my emotions have finally gotten their act together. Either way, I’m grateful this week has been different!
First things first, I came across a cockroach bigger than a golf ball today. Now I know that’s not exactly rainbows as it is making you want to barf, but the positive thing is I only have TWO more weeks working in the crappy city I’m in and dealing with junk like this. (Because really, if I see one more cockroach I may actually just pass out. You don’t even want to know.) Now that’s not to say that where I’m going I won’t come across things like this…but I can promise you that if I do, it will be rare. And not daily like it is now. WOO! (Also, who wants to throw up right now?)
To add to that, it’s only two weeks until I get to drop my hours again! I’m not exactly sure what this looks like or when it will exactly happen, but it’s a goal that’s within sight! I’m excited to be home with my babe a little more. We attended a birthday party at one of those play gyms this past weekend and OH MY GOSH, did the boy looooooove it! So I’m hoping to get him involved in some kind of activity since it’s already bitterly cold here and going outside in frigid temperatures will not be one of them.
I also have a huge project in the works (that’s also sucking up the majority of my time!) that I can’t wait to share with you. This past year has been such a blessing to my blog and I’m so so honored to have partnered with some of my absolute favorite brands. I can’t wait to spill the beans!!!!!
You all know CrossFit is my “me” time, and I’ve recently added yoga back into my workout regime. I can actually feel myself gaining strength between the two, and I’ve noticed my body being able to do things it couldn’t do before. This is huge for me because it’s a big distraction from all the pregnancy nonsense. I’ve hit a few PRs, and I’m so motivated to keep going. I owe this to fantastic trainers and amazing friends who inspire and encourage me daily.
And of course, my husband is just always amazing.
I’m beyond thrilled to be starting to push out of my funk. And I’m thankful that you all have stuck it out with me during the process! This blog has been truly a blessing to me, one that I didn’t think could ever be possible. I’m so grateful for the people I’ve met along the way. The internet is a weird but wonderful place. 🙂
I absolutely love your style!
Thanks Laura! <3

So glad to find your blog via the linkup. Hope we can get connected on social media 🙂
Thanks Abby! It’s a great top for any girl’s closet 🙂
I am a tough girl but roaches will always make me freak especially the big ones, glad your not going to be there for much longer:) and love the look and the beanie is it light weight?
Aloha, Kathleen
Yes, the beanie is VERY lightweight! Definitely not a cold-weather beanie. 🙂
Yuuuck…(about the cockroaches) A few years ago, when I used to go out to the city more, I would see cockroaches sometimes. Grossed me out! Loving your outfit! Great casual outfit
They’re disgusting! And make me feel itchy just thinking about them!
Such a fun outfit, lady! Love the flannel, it looks super warM! Stopped by from join the gossip! new follower, too!
Thank you! I’ve been digging flannel lately!
Ugh, cockroaches always make a bad situation worse. It will get better, at least that is what i tell myself. Your beanie is adorable!

Love how you styled these boots – so casual chic! And I think it’s great that you’re actively looking for the positive in life – everyone gets into those funks and then things start to look up again. Amazing blog girl, you’re killin it! 😀
