Motivational Mondays with Trisha: Sea Shells

I've returned to a Summer State of Mind. We're halfway through July. As much as I'd love to shift to fall, it would be a disservice to the Summer Lovers out there. That's why this week we're drawing inspiration from sea shells. They are pretty and aren't restricted to the ocean. I've found them along... Continue Reading →

Motivational Mondays with Trisha: Spy x Family

A Spy, an Assassin, and a telepath try to save the world on their own. Whose the telepath? their adopted daughter Anya. Could you imagine actually hearing your parents thoughts?! It definitely makes for an interesting situation. If you've been here a while it may seem like I'm running the block this week. You'd be... Continue Reading →

Motivational Mondays with Trisha: Palm Trees

You know what's interesting about the Summer? There's tropical themes decor all over the place. When truthfully, many prefer visiting places associated with these themes in the winter months. In an effort to embrace my least favorite season, I decided to find motivation from Palm Trees. They're actually very resilient. Sure they'll only thrive in... Continue Reading →

Motivational Mondays with Trisha: Sunshine

You know that saying if you can't beat em, join em. That's how I'm feeling about the sun right now. It's officially summer and the heat is going to sit on us without the frequent spring showers. So, I figured why not embrace one of the good things that come out of this season. The... Continue Reading →

Motivational Mondays with Trisha: Less Reactive

You know, it was hard finding quotes for reactive antonyms. They were all negative, which almost made being reactive look like a virtue. The opposite of reactive is someone that is out of touch with their emotions, which then turns into toxic behavior. That's not what I wanted to promote today. Turns out, adding "less"...

Motivational Mondays with Trisha: Explore

When you hear the word explore, What's the first thought that comes to mind? Is it adventure? Traveling? Does it sound expensive or uncertain? It can be all these things, but it doesn't have to be expensive. In fact, you can make getting to know your county better a cause for exploration. I know it... Continue Reading →

Meme Mondays with Trisha: Brooklyn Nine Nine

Honestly, this post came about, because of our first meme. I was minding my business scrolling Facebook when suddenly...I saw the Pontiac Bandit aka Doug Judy. So, of course I had to read the meme. From that point, I double checked my archive to make sure we haven't had a Brooklyn Nine Nine Monday before.... Continue Reading →

Motivational Mondays with Trisha: Carnivals

We're knocking on June's door. With Memorial Day (May 27, 2024)  around the corner, towns are putting up signs for local parades and carnivals. It's the time of the year where entertainment comes to you (in the U.S. at least). In the spirit of fun, I drew inspiration from carnivals. They are a summer staple.... Continue Reading →

Motivational Mondays with Trisha: Studio Ghibli

I'll admit I haven't seen every Studio Ghibli film, but I do plan to borrow the films my library has available. I just have to carve out time to enjoy them. Over the weekend, I decided I wanted to watch Howls Moving Castle by myself. Meaning all mommy request we deferred to Daddy. Why was... Continue Reading →

Meme Mondays with Trisha: Mother’s Day

You know, there's been a run-on joke about what Mothers really want for Mother's Day. To do absolutely nothing. To indulge in our favorite hobbies without interruption. To temporarily turn off that Spidey sense of children embarking in reckless behavior. Alas motherhood is a year-round with little to know daily breaks. So, why is it... Continue Reading →
