Optimistic Monday

November 26, 2012

Goals for last week:
1.  Walk and walk and walk!
I got in 3 walks this week, including Thanksgiving morning!
11/20/12 3.07 miles, 11/22/12 3.14 miles, 11/23/12 3.53 miles

2.  Finish up my project dedicated to the memory of my mom.

I did it!!  If you haven’t seen it yet, the website is Give A Smile Today.

I would really LOVE it if you could all help me spread the word by posting it on your Facebook pages, blogs, twitters, etc!!  I need lots of people to sign up to be card senders.  Thanks so much for your support!!!

3.  Continue my Fall cleaning.
I have made a few strides in this massive project.  Not sure if it is ever actually finished.

4.  Film some YouTube videos.
No videos from me.  I am almost ready to film…

5.  Find a new recipe for something different to include in this year’s Thanksgiving meal.
Nothing new from me at the Thanksgiving meal.  I did make some cookies though over the weekend that were one of my mom’s family recipes.  I also made a new chicken dish one night that was a pretty huge success with my son.

6.  Actually watch some YouTube videos.
I’ve watched a few videos from a few of my YouTube sisterhood.  I need to watch more because my friends make me smile, especially when they are talking about makeup!  

7.  Clean up my email inbox.
Yes and no…  I cleaned out a lot of the old mail but continue to receive more on a daily basis.  Do we ever really catch up on on this task?
Goals for this week:
1.  Get in 4 walks this week.
2.  Film at least 2 YouTube videos.  I really miss this!!
3.  Make 2 new things from Pinterest.  It might be food or it might be a craft.
4.  Start some holiday shopping.  There wasn’t any Black Friday shopping for me.  I’m still contemplating Cyber Monday.
5.  Relax a little and read a book (fiction and happy things only).
6.  Kick off my Give A Smile Today card sending on December 1st.  I will need to organize my system before then.

Once again, I invite you to post your goals on your blog or any other optimistic type post and link up here with me!  Please feel free to grab a button from my sidebar.


Optimistic Monday

My home cooking skills are limited, but I nail thi My home cooking skills are limited, but I nail this smoothie every time!�

The star of the show is really the peanut butter plant based protein powder. It’s gut-friendly, made from just 6 clean organic ingredients and NO artificial sweeteners.�

No sponsorship here, just spreading the love to fellow vegetarians and protein fans. 

Have you tried it?��

I make mine with 8 ounces unsweetened almond milk, 1 scoop of protein powder and I like to add a handful of frozen dark sweet cherries. I usually have a smoothie in the morning or afternoon.

It comes in about a dozen different flavor options, including an unflavored option too. Let me know if you want a list of places to purchase.�

Once I start talking about something that I’m pa Once I start talking about something that I’m passionate and excited about, I just don’t stop. That’s why I decided to post some long-form videos on YouTube (where I started my journey back in 2010).

I love makeup, skincare and anything beauty. I also love clothes, jewelry, handbags and accessories. That’s what I mostly share over there. 

I hope you’ll join me over there with your morning coffee. I plan to post once a week (on Fridays) for now. 

Let me know if you want the LINK to this week’s video (also link in my profile). I’m pretty proud of it, if I do say so myself.😉

For this week’s video, I shared what I packed in my vacation makeup bag (I kept it extra light) and also few outfits that I wore (most items are on sale).

July favorites photo dump… These are some of t July favorites photo dump… 

These are some of the clothing and accessories that I loved wearing and sharing with you throughout the month of July. And apparently, all of you loved them too!💖💖

These are some of my favorites and bestsellers for women over 50, 60 and beyond. I always say to wear what makes you happy and not what society dictates.  Because if you love what you’re wearing then you’ll feel your best, boost your confidence and achieve your goals.

Age is just a number! Who’s with me?😎

Let me know if you want LINKS to any of these outfits with sizing details.💖

I’m all about affordable fashion (most of the time😉) and shopping the best sales and deals. If that sounds like you too, then give me a follow for lots more.🥰
