Optimistic Monday

March 18, 2013

I’m trying to get back on track with my some of the regular posts on my blog.  What better way to do this than with my Optimistic Monday post and a review of my goals.

My Goals for last week:
(or maybe it was the week before?)

1.  Write some blog posts and get them scheduled to go up while I’m on vacation.
I kind of failed in the scheduling of posts while I was on vacation.  I did sit still long enough to get a few posts up, but not really anything too exciting.

2.  Run errands and complete by Wednesday or Thursday.
I did get all of my errands done in a timely manner.

3.  Be packed for vacation by Thursday.
I was packed up and ready in plenty of time.  The only thing I ended up forgetting was my contact lens case and eyeglasses.  I was able to buy a new storage case easily but had to do without my glasses.  They are just for distance, but I like to take my contacts out in the evenings and wear glasses to rest my eyes.  I guess it’s not too bad considering it’s all I forgot to bring.
4.  Film 2 videos and upload both this week!
I filmed a few videos but didn’t upload because I didn’t like the way I looked in them.  Oh well…

5.  Mail out packages and cards for my Give A Smile Today list.
Yes, I mailed a few things before I went on vacation.


6.  Take a walk on the beach!!
I took MANY walks on the beach.


My goals for this week:

Since I have an extremely busy week with my kids’ schedules, I’m not going to set too many goals this week.  We’re having my daughter’s senior class over Monday night for dinner and fellowship.  Tuesday is a high school golf tournament for my son that I will attend.  Friday is Prom for my daughter.  I’ll just take one day at a time and it will all work out just fine.

1.  Get over this jet lag ASAP!
2.  Walk 3 times and try to do some pilates.
3.  Get up at least 4 blog posts.
4.  Film a few videos, including a few reviews that I’ve been wanting to do.

Do you have some goals that you are trying to accomplish this week?
Share them below in the comments section!

Have a fabulous week!

My hubby and I recently took on a landscaping proj My hubby and I recently took on a landscaping project to block the view between our yard and the next door neighbor.šŸ”

We ordered some Sky Pencil Holly trees from the @fastgrowingtrees website and had our beautiful trees in just a few days.

We dug the holes (okay, hubby did that part), planted the trees, added mulch and then watered. Our project turned out great and now we’ll have the privacy that we were looking for.🌳🌳🌳

Check out their website for your next landscaping project. They have all the plants and trees you’ve been looking for and you can’t beat the convenience of having them delivered straight to your door.🤩

People always ask me the secret to my shiny, healt People always ask me the secret to my shiny, healthy looking hair and I’m here to tell you that the products I use make a big difference. I’ve been using Gisou Honey Gloss Ceramide Cleanse Shampoo and their Honey Gloss Ceramide Hydrating Conditioner. 

My hair is shiny, hydrated, smooth and silky. And I love the way they make my hair smell too, it’s like a sweet honey with floral and citrus notes. 

The shampoo deeply cleanses with a blend of Fermented Mirsalehi Honey, ceramides, and AHAs to restore hydration and support the hair’s microbiome. 

The Honey Gloss Ceramide Therapy Hydrating Conditioner is infused with silk protein for softer, stronger hair.Ā 

They also have a hair mask, a hair oil and 2 different hair perfumes that are on my list to try next.

You can grab these fabulous Gisou products at @Sephora. Your hair will thank you.

The Fall collections have already been dropping an The Fall collections have already been dropping and I’m here for it, but first we need to discuss the late summer collection from @jjillstyle that just dropped. #ad

They’re great pieces that are the perfect weight to wear now and then later with some fun layering.

I’m wearing wide leg ankle jeans, the softest tee and the most fun chino material peplum style lightweight jacket. Most styles are available in regular, petite and tall (XS-4X).

Have a great day!
