Do What You Love [Hump Day Hugs]

This week's hug:

Work at something you enjoy and that's worthy of your time and talent.

We all have different talents. Some are great communicators. Some are artists. Some are meant to challenge your mind. Some are meant to pick you up when you fall. Some are meant to put you back together when you break into a million pieces. The question is: are you using your talents and time to do something you enjoy?

When you are doing what you love, there is no greater gift than the happiness that comes with it.

You are given the opportunity to make the world a happier place because of the positive energy that flows through you when you do what you love because you feel unstoppable.

There is no weight on your shoulders when you get up each day because you know that no matter what happens, at the end of the day, you'll still be doing that one thing you are meant to do. I think we all want to feel this way about our day. It is something we need to pray for and work for.

Happiness comes from within. Find your happy place and work hard to get there. Take your talents and turn them into a career that you can be proud of, that you will love, and that will be worth your time and effort each day.

This happened two weekends ago! :)

Cassie has all weekend off to read and clean and do crafts!

Mary applied for a few jobs and signed up for volunteering.

We are on day 26 of our new healthy lifestyle.
Not that anyone's counting though...

Crappies

It has rained for Mary for the past 3 days

It has also been chilly; Mary hates the cold!

Cassie has had an emotional and long week at work. She is glad it's the weekend!

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!

Hump Day Hugs #5

It's just me today, ladies and gents! Mary is busy, busy, busy. :)

So, you just get my two cents on the topic.

Many people will try to judge your spending and life style habits, don't let it get to you. It's your life, your money and no one else's business.

Money is a necessary evil, but you deserve to own pretty things because you've worked hard for your money! You should get to use it how you want. I am certainly not condoning spending a whole paycheck in one night out and going broke, but but it's okay to buy a nice pair of shoes every once in a while. Or, that cupcake looks pretty delicious too! The point being...don't be stingy with your earnings.

After all, as I always tell my husband....
