Monday Motivation

For the last two weeks, we've been living without "real" TV and subpar internet through our phones, not to mention no furniture outside of our bedrooms. This past weekend was our first weekend with a house full of furniture and a TV that could watch more than just recorded episodes. As much as I'm happy to have more variety to watch and internet that's actually worth a crap, I can't deny that not having those things forced us to spend more time together as a family, which is invaluable.

So be intentional - remember the things that matter most in life - and turn off your TV, phone, computer, whatever it is that's stealing time from those things. Because time is non-refundable.

Happy Monday!

Home Sweet Home

You've no doubt noticed things have been pretty quiet around here the last few weeks. We just moved into a new house and things have been pretty hectic. We've still got boxes stacked in corners and no furniture outside the bedrooms, but hopefully all of that will change this weekend. Once we're settled, I'll get back in the saddle. Until then, check out my social media pages (links at the top of the page).

Live at Lunch was on the road every Friday in June. We started with the Alabama State Games, got our mouths watering at the Slocomb Tomato and Panhandle Watermelon festivals, and ended the month on a patriotic note at Freedom Fest on Fort Rucker. These are my favorite shows to do - they're creative and fun, and we get to meet some pretty cool people along the way. This go 'round we met an Olympic gold medalist and two country music singers. Oh, and did I mention? I work with a pretty great crew.

If you're like me, your body lets you know when you're doing too much. For me it's stuff like acne breakouts, trouble sleeping, and an unsettled stomach. Admitting that I need a break is easy, but taking one isn't always simple. But when I'm feeling unfocused, stretched thin, cranky and at my wits' end, I know I need to scale back. Unfortunately for this blog, it's often the first thing that gets cut, as you all saw last week. I've been struggling to write anything and have several posts in varying stages of progress just waiting for me to finish them, and I promise one day I will. It just probably won't be this week...and maybe not next week either. My schedule is all over the place right now, and I'm not willing to sacrifice what little sleep I'm actually getting for the sake of a blog post. So even though I'm sort of "back" this week, I'm also still kind of "taking a break" from big posts until I get back steady on my feet and feel like my mental health is at 100% again. But until then...

Happy Monday!
