Blessing 15 of 52 HelloFresh is a service I’ve been wanting to try for awhile. I like to cook, but I don’t love it as some people do. It doesn’t necessarily relax me and I sure wouldn’t call it a passion of mine. I do however enjoy eating whole, fresh and healthy foods. And, don’t get me wrong, I do enjoy being in the kitchen at times. I had a coupon for HelloFresh and, as…
Blessing 14 of 52 Well. This year has turned out to be a doozie as well. I have started from ground zero in almost every area of my life. Finances, intimate partnerships, friendships and now my home. I was conflicted for weeks on where to go and what to do. I knew I had to be out of my house by April 8th or 9th as new tenants were moving in on April 15th. I…
Blessing 13 of 52 I love trying new places. Whether that be new cities or something local that I’ve never been to; I love different experiences and adventures. Especially, restaurants. I self admittedly used to keep an excel spreadsheet of local restaurants, cafes and bars that I hadn’t been to and then cross each one off the list. It was EVERYTHING when I used to be that organized and a restaurant go-getter. So, this week…
Blessing 12 of 52 As I mentioned in my last post, the blessings keep rolling through volunteering for Hospice. I’m finding so much fulfillment and purpose by giving of my time. The patients, staff and caregivers that I’ve met thus far are really inspiring and beautiful. This week, I went on my first “Pet Peace of Mind” program assignment. It’s a gentleman that has five cats. The cats are 13 years old and have been…
Blessing 11 out of 52 Volunteering for Hospice has gifted me many new experiences this year so far. It’s been a blessing to be of service for the greater good. Using my heart gifts and give of my time is what lights me up. This week I had the pleasure of making my first round of comfort calls. Every Wednesday morning I have a list of caretakers I call to check-up on the patients. I…
Blessing 10 of 52 Things have been a little haywire lately in life (again) and I’m relying on God’s strength. Sometimes you just need a spur of the moment hotel stay and that’s what exactly what I did. Long story short, I was on the phone with my mother and she mentioned she was going to put flowers on my grandmother’s grave on Sunday. My grandparent’s grave is located in Sarasota, Florida. That’s where my…
Blessing 9 of 52 I love my church. As I’ve written in previous posts, my relationship with God is the priority. God is my foundation and my strength. Starting off the year with the 21 day fast that I completed with my church, set a new tone for the future. And, this week’s blessing happen to come through none other than church. Every so often, my church hosts what they call “Her Night”. I had…
Week 8 of 52 I have been back and forth on what to write about for week 8. One “new blessing” of the week is an obvious blessing. It was fun, it was light and is something I’m very passionate about. The other was very challenging. It’s something I had never experienced before, so it’s right on brand with what I’m trying to write about, but it was not easy. And, as I’ve learned in…
Week 7 of 52 This week is all about the learning! I loved school. No, like really loved school. When I was younger I used to fib to my parents when I was sick. Yes you read that right, when I WAS sick. If I was not feeling well, I would try and act like I was so I could go to school. I hated missing school and consider myself a lifetime student. I suppose…
Week 6 of 52 This week’s blessing has gone to the dogs. Well, if I’m honest my life has gone to the dogs. I joke that my full time job is project managing animals and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Dogs are one of my love languages and I truly have soul connections to my four legged friends. In all my 38 years, I’ve never known life without my best friends. So, this…
