March In Retrospect...

Even though I said it wouldn't be, March was another slow month for me here on the blog. Seeing how few posts I did makes me really determined to step things up in the following months! All of that being said here are a few things that happened this month: 

1. I talked about the Sunshine Award and nominated some of my favorite bloggers. 

2. I talked about how important the little things in life are. 

3. Spring break seemed like a bust at times but I had a wonderful day out shopping with my mom. 

4. I became obsessed with True Detective and binge watched it in one week.  

I'm excited for April! Good things are coming and I can't wait to share them with you :) 

Peace and Love,

M.I.A....

Things were essentially dead here on the blog last week- let's just say that my Spring break didn't exactly go as planned. We started off the week with a snow day on Monday and after fighting a sore throat for a few days I broke out into a full on virus. As if spending Spring break sick wasn't bad enough my mom and I were supposed to go down to Nashville to start looking at apartments and spend time with our family down there. Unfortunately we had to cancel our trip. I was so sick and couldn't imagine spending 12 hours in a car. All that to say that I was pretty out of it and spent most of my break in bed watching "True Detective" and sleeping. I was beyond heartbroken that we had to cancel our trip but it just makes me more excited for my trip down this summer and I know that it was the best decision given the situation. But now I am rejuvenated and have a bunch of ideas for this little blog of mine! Here's to brighter (& healthier) days ahead!!

The Little Things...

Sometimes I wonder if I am too materialistic. I always get so excited about new purchases and I can spend hours "window" shopping online. But then I also think, "What girl doesn't love shopping?" And it's not like I spend excessive amounts of money on things. All of that to say that I am working on spending less time on things and more on my spiritual well-being. But still, you can't deny that feeling you get when you come home with a brand new nail polish or a new book. Currently I have three little things that are putting a smile on my face. The first is my Essie nail polish in Beyond Cozy. I am a huge fan of gold nail polishes and this is my favorite one that I have tried! It has just the right amount of shimmer and it always makes me smile when I look down at my hands during the day. Second is my MAC perfume in Turquatic. This is a beautiful, fresh scent that is just lovely for Spring and Summer. I got this as a gift last year and have been obsessed ever since! Finally, there is nothing better than getting a new book! I had been hearing such great things about Crash the Chatterbox that I couldn't hold off buying it. It sounds like it will be perfect for some of the things that I am struggling with right now and I can't wait to start reading it.

That's it for today, lovelies! I hope your week is going well and that you are finding the little things within it that are making you happy!

Peace and Love,
