    10 Things That Didn’t Break Me | #LateNightThoughts

    It’s too early for this. Why am I still awake? Well, told be told, I rarely sleep. My body just got used to not sleeping til about 7 in the morning-ish. I know it’s horrible, don’t remind me. Well, I’m sitting here on Twitter, Twitter is where I go when I am bored. I forgot what post I first saw, but I saw a #ThingsThatDidntBreakMe trending. With a little bit of clicking here and there, I found the first post about it. Yay! I thought to myself, this could be fun. I like to join in on these trending hashtags…

    #FabulousFebruary

    The other day, Tyler said the month of February should be #FabulousFebruary. Meaning we should support and encourage each other. Seems simple enough right? I bet you’re all.. “Natalie another raw life update post, really?” Yep. Because, posting at least one every month is pretty good therapy. I want to be able to look over these one day and be blown away from the things I actually went through.

    15 Things That Make Me Happy | #Happiness

    I choose to be happy! Once you’re able to love yourself, you can find happiness within. If you asked me a year ago what made me happy. I’m not sure I could think of something besides my kids (of course). For so many years, I always was the people pleaser, I would bend over backwards to make people happy. But deep down, it wasn’t making me happy. So when a friend asked me, “what are your goals for 2016?” I said, “to be happy..” Sounds cheesy.  To be happy is just that. To find happiness in the little things. While life not…

    Overall the year wasn’t horrible, but I wish I did things differently. But what can you do. Here’s a look back on 2015! You just move on and hope for a better outcome. I’m so ready for 2016. I’m tired of dwelling on the past and ready to do me and make 2016 about moving on to better! I hope you enjoyed the happy moments from 2015. I don’t want to talk about the not happy moments, those aren’t as fun.

    Insomnia Rants about Life at 4am | #LateNightThoughts

    You know that feeling you get when you’re in the boat called life and your floating in this boat and you’re without a life jacket. You’re rushing to keep your boat a float. But just like any one person, no one is perfect. So your boat has holes in it, you can try to patch these holes and stay a float. Or you can choose not to do anything and sink with your boat. I feel like once I get one hole patched another hole gets un-patched and there’s this never ending cycle of trying to fix things. I can’t control. Trying…

    #TLCvoxbox Box Reveal by Influenster

    It’s been awhile since I got a voxbox, it’s about time Influenster! just kidding, seriously though. First thing I noticed is how smaller the boxes are. They used to be bigger, maybe it’s just this box, but a friend said the boxes have been getting smaller, that pretty sucky, but it is what it is. Influenster said this was gonna be a “box for mom” some “TLC for mom”. So I’m thinking, candy, lotion, something for mom to feel special.. Because, hello, chocolate makes me feel special. 1) Shell Fuel Rewards Card – FREE  The Fuel Rewards Network program at…
