In Review

I begin the month of March with an update of the last few weeks of February. This Valentine's Day weekend we went to Tennessee to visit my family. My husband and I attended a really nice banquet at the Tennessee Aquarium. Though I wasn't feeling my best, as I chose to wear a dress that did not flatter my body at all, I thought it was special to spend Valentine's Day alone with my husband. I also received the most thoughtful gift ever, a beautiful pink journal and a pink pen with a diamond heart and engraved on it were my name and website. I was so excited, no one supports me more than my husband and this gift not only showed his support but his belief in me and my passion for writing.

After returning home, later that week, my husband and I went on a date, something we do not get to do much of, to the Louisville Orchestra. Being a musician, I really enjoy classical music and it was so great to share that with my husband. The next weekend I got sick, my body ached all over and my throat was very soar. I spent the entire week without energy and no desire to do anything, hence no blogging for the last 3 weeks. I still haven't completely recovered as I have a continuous cough that doesn't want to go away.

This past weekend my good friend Rebecca and her family came to visit. It was so nice to have them over and catch up since we last saw each other back in October. I miss having my good friend living in the same town, but I am glad that we can keep in touch and see each other a few times a year. It's great to have close friends that no matter where life takes you, they are just a phone call or email away. Though my best gal pal lives 3 hours away, I have my best friend right be my side. Today's blog is on honor of my husband and best friend, who supports me and pushes me to be the best that I can be and loves me no matter what.

OUR PUERTO RICO VACATION

La Isla del Encanto… the island of enchantment… that is the popular name given to the island of Puerto Rico. In summer of 2017 we visited Puerto Rico on our family vacation.. we spent 8 days on the island.  This was the first time my boys and I had been to PR. Tony used to spend his summers there, as a kid, with his grandparents. I particularly enjoyed this trip because we had the opportunity to visit several places during our stay.  We flew from Fort Lauderdale, FL to the capital city of San Juan, Puerto Rico. Shortly after arriving we drove to the southwest central part of the island to visit Tony’s grandmother in the town of Adjuntas.  ADJUNTAS Adjuntas is known as the land of the sleeping giant because the mountain range looks like a giant sleeping on his side.  It’s located in a mountainous range so the climate is mild. The days we were there the weather was overcast and rainy, but pleasant because we didn’t experience

Disney races are a big deal! I never knew just how popular they were until the year I was left out of the Wine & Dine race beca use it filled up in a matter of two hours. It was now 2017 and I was not going to let that happen again. I sat anxiously checking the time every 5 minutes waiting for 12 o'clock. I had both my laptop and phone open to the RunDisney registration page. As the clock struck twelve I rapidly jumped on! Jackpot! I was able to register! Now that registration was behind me, it was now time to think about the most important part...what costume was I going to wear! My favorite part of Disney races is dressing up and finding awesome costumes. My friend and I kept going back and forth on what costumes we should run in.  Our first idea was to run as cute snowmen, thinking the theme would be Christmas once again. But the theme had changed and it was now going to be Fall Feast. Our first thought about going with Beauty and the Beast characters becau

HOW I KEEP MY HOME ORGANIZED

The new year puts me the mood to rearrange my house. In the time we have lived in our current home, I think I have literally moved the furniture in my living around in every possible way, which means I have most likely exhausted all possible ways to rearrange my furniture, lol. The very moment I begin to put away Christmas decorations my wheels begin turning and I start to wonder, hmm... would my living room look better if I moved the sofa over here… or would this plant would look better over there?     I love to decorate and arrange my house to be more comfortable and function better. This sort of thing makes me very happy!  I love to have a well organized and neat home that suits all of my family’s needs. Being a stay at home mom and housewife, my home is where I spend my entire day, it’s both my place of work and my sanctuary.  So I want it to the best it can be.
