You Asked, I Answered

Hey everyone! I hope you have had a lovely January and a lovely week. I have had a very tiring week. It was a week that I did enjoy, but at the end of this week, I'm so exhausted. Today I'm bringing you a similar post to one that I did at the start of my blog almost 7 years ago. Back then it was called What My Friends Want to Know and the structure is the same.

How to Make a Welcome Bag for Your First Time Guest

Hey everyone! I'm glad you are here! I love guests. Okay, so I may groan sometimes when my doorbell rings, but that's usually late at night or like way too early in the morning. But, I really try to make all guests feel welcome. And since there are teenagers in the house there are lots of first-time guests now. Which is why I have made Welcome Bags!

Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. - 1 Peter 4: 8-9

Hey everyone! I'm thrilled to have you here today. I'm cozied up right now enjoying the night with a good book and my journal. It's been a day and I'm just wanting to just chill and relax.

New Year Wish List 2020

Hey everyone! Do you ever do just a plain want list? Well, it's a plain and a need list. I have found myself making this for years without realizing it. What is great about this list is I have it written down so I won't forget and these things play in my mind all the time.

20 Nonfiction Books for 2020

Who doesn't love a good challenge? Well, for me it depends. As I tell my best friend all the time, "I know my limits." But this year I am making my own challenge for myself. I want to read more nonfiction. I'm more of a self-help or Christian nonfiction genre.

Hey everyone! Let's talk about something that has been plaguing me for a while now. How do you have some self-care at work? Sure it is easy to put on a face mask and hop in the tub at home, but I don't think they would appreciate me hopping in the sink at work with goop on my face.
