Look After Yourself Friday

Let’s get this party started and do a ROLL CALL!

Who’s here and ready to kick off your shoes and relax your feet on this glorious Friday?

Y’all, I am about to pour a glass of wine and relax. This week, I moved nonstop and checked many things off my to-do list, and I have to admit I feel like a badass. I took a rest day on Sunday. Well, I was forced to because of my sore ribs, and then I slowly eased back into my regular routine. 

By Tuesday, I was off to the races and moving like a champ!

While I was relaxing on Sunday, I had time just to be, and that’s just what the doctor ordered. I feel refreshed and brand new. That sore rib experience reminded me that we all need to have a day when we do nothing. 

And on that day, tell everyone to leave you alone! Back off, or someone will get hurt.

Maybe for some of us, that day is today. If it is or isn’t, I would LOVE to know how you are going to look after yourself.

How I’m Looking After Myself

Well, I already spilled the beans and told y’all that I’m about to pour myself a GIGANTIC glass of red wine and play in some makeup I bought from Sephora. Then I’ll wash it off because I know nothing about makeup, but it’s fun to pretend I do.

Tomorrow, my husband and I will have a date night, and I have no idea what we will do. This isn’t good because it’s my turn to plan it, and well, let’s just say I’ll be throwing this date together at the last minute (I hope my husband isn’t reading this; if so, I’m just kidding).

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. Get out of the house, read a book, enjoy the sun kissing your skin, and drink plenty of water. But most of all, tell someone you love them and dare to be vulnerable.

You could have chosen any blog to read, but you chose mine, and I’m honored!

  1. You feel like a badass because you are a badass! It feels like it’s been a long week, so I am happy the weekend is here. I’ll be spending some time by the pool and enjoying some homemade salsa and guacamole! Happy weekend sweet friend.

  3. BAYBAY, after these last two days of moving, I am soaking in a lavender Epsom salt bath with patchouli incense burning, and I am letting my body relax and reset itself.

    Happy weekend, Bella!

  8. Today is Sunday and I am catching up on reading and commenting. My younger daughter is on the dance team so my Fridays are nonstop atm. Saturday I coordinated a wedding in my banquet room. Today I gave myself a break. The house needs cleaned, and guess what, it will get cleaned later this week. I took a nap today, read a book, made yummy turkey tacos for dinner, and Ray and I are going to watch a movie if time doesn’t get away from us. On to the next week. I am glad your rib is feeling better and you kicked your to-do list’s butt.

    2. Good!!!! I’m so glad you feel that way. So many of us do this to ourselves and we have to stop. Bee thankful for where we are right now and then take it from there. We aren’t perfect and that’s a beautiful thing.
      Thank you so much for reading.
