I’m back after taking a little social media brea I’m back after taking a little social media break. I enjoyed the extra time for self care of mind, body and soul. I’m feeling revived and ready to jump back in again. Thanks for waiting for me and thanks for following if you’re new here.💗⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I've been pretty productive on my blog and also completed several jigsaw puzzles. I find them mentally stimulating and relaxing at the same time.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I thought I’d share 10 facts about me and sort of reintroduce myself today.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. I was born in NY, then moved to FL, then TX for college and have called this great state my home since 1988.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. I’ve been married for over 30 years, have 3 grown children and 1 grandchild.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3. I was a pediatric Occupational Therapist before changing career paths.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
4. I’ve been a beauty and lifestyle blogger for 10 years.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
5. My hobbies include reading, gardening, nature photography and travel. I'm a planner and love lists. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
6. I’m a pescatarian (mostly vegetarian).⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
7. I'm forever the optimist (There's no time for negativity).⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
8. I'm all for empowering women, lifting each other up and am your number one gal for supporting a good cause.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
9. I don't discuss religion or politics (except with my family).⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
10. As my Instagram name implies, I'm obsessed with makeup and skincare. I'm grateful that I get "live my passion" every single day.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Tell me something about YOU!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Yup, I’ve been MIA on Instagram lately. Sometime Yup, I’ve been MIA on Instagram lately. Sometimes we just need a break from social media to figure out our why. To be honest, I haven’t figured out my why but I’m enjoying the break.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My son and I started a 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle on Sunday. My husband joined us on Monday. We’re making progress, but most of all I’m cherishing the family time.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I hope everyone is doing well and that your year is off to a good start.💗💗⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Happy Hump Day! How are your last few days of the Happy Hump Day! How are your last few days of the year going? I know that we’re ALL ready to say goodbye to 2020 and welcome a brand new year.

I’m physically on vacation in Cabo this week, but I’m mentally prepping some of my goals and action plans for the new year. Actually, I don’t think I ever take a full day off.

I’m deciding on my word for 2021 and thinking about updating my vision board for the new year. Do you do either of these things?

Morning coffee while strolling on an empty beach = Morning coffee while strolling on an empty beach = PRICELESS!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This is the best way to start off a new week. I think we may need to buy a place and just stay here for a while (dreaming).

Have you traveled at all during this pandemic or are you waiting?
