I Just Like to Smile

Hump Day Hugs have been revamped and are ready for action!

This week's hug:

Become the most positive and enthusiastic person you know.

Now, we have to say, we're pretty good at this. We look for the silver lining in most situations. That's not to say that we don't have our Debbie Downer days because we are human so we totally do, but for the most part - this is us: positive and enthusiastic about life!

But, we get it. Some days it's hard to plaster on that smile and face the world. You may be having a bad day, but your smile might be the only one someone sees all day. And, just remember that somewhere out there in that great big world, someone's got a smile waiting for you too.

And, in case you didn't know, it takes less muscles to smile than it does to frown. So, put on your happy face and make someone's day today. We promise it'll make you smile more!

Hump Day Hug #8

Okay...honest moment for today...these hump day hugs are getting a bit...tiresome?

We're not really sure what to call it.

We had this great idea to use a list of 20 Things a Woman Should Live By, but it's too "You're Better Than Everyone Else." Do you know what we mean?

 The list isn't positive enough...if that's possible.

We still want to do hump day hugs and tell you all how awesome you are {because you totally are} so we're going to come up with our own each week instead of using a list.

But, since Cassie is working 4 ten hour shifts this week, she hasn't been available for much planning.

So, to make this all easier, we're just going to post the whole list of 20 Things a Woman Should Live By for your reading pleasure!

Happy Hump Day, Ladies!!!

More Than Words

First things first...

I hope your morning felt like fall because ours sure did!

This healthy lifestyle is definitely something you have to wake up every day and choose to follow. Having to make the right choices when out to eat or out on the town is tough. It helps that I have Cassie sending me reminder posts of why we're doing this and to make good choices. This is why I chose this quote this week. We've only just begun, but we're going to keep it up!

This is my quote for the week in reflection of what I accomplished last week through healthy eating and daily exercise. I have to remember {read as: remind myself multiple times a day} that if I have a goal, I need to do something about it. The goal is not going to achieve itself sitting all nice and pretty on the shelf. 

So, Mary and I have made it thought week one of our new and improved lives. The honeymoon phase of working out and making good choices is over. Now, it's time to get down to business and stay committed!

Something Nice to Say

Did you miss us??

We hope so!!

And soon, you and I might be able to coerce Mary into telling us all about her adventures across the pond!

In the meantime, here are this weeks words of wisdom.

I can't begin to describe how true I find this quote. No matter what happened in the past or what we've dwelled on, life keeps going on around us. Life keeps moving on whether we choose to or not. So...embrace it! Move past it!  Life goes on and so do we!

I had a completely different quote picked out for today, but I changed my mind this morning because this is how I know I'm going to be today. Our AC went out...again so I'm cranky from lack of sleep, & I had to go to Lowe's at six this morning. I feel like that would make a great opening to a joke...or a horror film, you choose - "A woman walks into a home improvement store at 6 a.m."

But, I digress. Some days you know are going to be bad. Or, maybe you know the whole week is going to be terrible. Instead of going for the age old mantra "Grin and Bear It," choose this delightful, lady-like rendition! I know I'll be chanting it to myself all day today! Care to join me?
