I was typing out the title to this post and couldn’t believe that I was writing 2018 in the post. The new year is finally here. Believe me, the last few months of 2017 have just been entirely draining and I am ready for the fresh start and the new year. Though we started out with negative temps and snow and I am not a fan of either. The snow is fine before Christmas but after Christmas, not so much. I think this year will have a lot of big things happening and so I have decided that my phrase for the year will be “Don’t Give Up.” It probably sounds cheesy, but I think I will need that reminder quite frequently.
Now it’s time to dive into the first post of the year. I feel like I have been lacking inspiration and creativity lately, but hopefully soon I will have some other post ideas and try to post 2-3 times a week through this year.
Current Book: Before Happiness by Shawn Achor. I listened to him on Oprah’s podcast and decided to check out his books. Needed some inspiration to kick off the New Year.
Current Podcast: The Chasing Joy Podcast. I have had a few episodes downloaded of this podcast for a while and finally listened to them while to and from Florida on the plane. Now I need to catch up on the other 40+ episodes she has.
Current Guilty pleasure: face masks, my sister got me a couple for Christmas and now they are added to my Target list
Current drink: I would still go with collagen…I’m hooked.
Current Food: ham + cheese + crackers, so simple, perfect weekend snack lunch
Current want: I was watching a youtube video and heard about the HP Sprocket printer for your phone. Ummm so neat!! I’m just going to wait to see how long I can stare at this on Amazon before I end up purchasing it…
Current obsession: new camera lenses and awesome photos from the beach over Christmas
Current craving: All the food…workouts catching up to me and hungry hungry hippo over here
Current excitement: new year and getting stronger in my weightlifting
Current beauty product: This is a new category for now, but with the cold winter weather, I purchased a moisturizer from Paula’s choice and have been loving it for my face. I am not typically a person who uses lotion or moisturizers but lately when I have been washing my face, I need something to put on it after or it feels super dry.
Thanks Amanda for letting me think out loud.
