EMPTIES: January 2022
Last month, I emptied some of my favorite products, which means I hated to see them go. Keep reading to see what I used up last month and why I loved them.
LINK-END ROUND-UP: February 4, 2022
January just wrapped up already in a couple of day. So, how has your 2022 been treating you so far? Mine has been pretty chill and a little relieving, because I no longer have the holiday stress. Plus, some things that I was stressing about the later quarter of the year no longer plague me. I realized that a lot of those things worked themselves out or weren’t worth my time. My theme for 2022 is “Get At It”, which means that I need to stop overthinking and just live life. So far, I have been nailing!
This has been a long week. Currently, I’m working from home, because we are under a nice big ice chill and there are a lot of people without power. Fortunately for me, my power only went out for 6 minutes yesterday and I’ve been good ever since. I did go into the office briefly for my annual performance review/raise talk, which also came with a promotion. So, I’m obviously very excited about this new opportunity that I’ve praying for, to be honest. 😀
As for this weekend, I plan to defrost and do a some blog content planning, because I definitely dropped the ball the last couple of years. However, I’m ready and some posts and contents ready to share. Also, I would like to find the time and energy to put this wallpaper up behind my bar cart area. Getting that area and my dining area finally together is at the top of my list in regards to home decor. I’ve been putting off to wait to see if I was going to renew my lease. Thankfully, the increase wasn’t too steep – 10% – so I signed it and I’m here for another year. Happy about that, because this location has been perfect for me and the space is great, too.
I hope you all have a good weekend and stay warm and check in on your family and neighbors, too! Check out the reads int this week’s Link-End Round-Up.
LUST-HAVE LIST: February 2022
Happy February! It’s Black History Month, the month of Love, and I’m sure some other things! However, I have some high hopes for this month, because I’m aspiring to live a life abundance. I know that sounds very “hotep”, but it’s true. Personally, I owe myself backpay for how hard I’ve been on myself over most of my life and it’s time to pay up. No better time like the present to get right with me for me.
In the meantime, here are some items I’ve been eyeing recently and need. Actually, I’m going to gift a couple of these things to myself as a Valentine’s gift to me. I mean, I love me and I need to start showing and proving that to myself. Keep reading to see the items I’m wanting this month, because all of them are worthy of my money.
Did you know that January is Hot Tea Month and that January 12 is National Hot Tea Day? Well, I just learned this the other day, but I’m all for it.
Currently, I’m fasting off coffee for most of the month and it’s been a little rough. However, my stash of Stash Teas has been keeping me going. FYI, this isn’t a sponsored post – Stash teas are just my current go-to teas at the moment. Keep reading to see my favorite tea combinations throughout most days.
