I always enjoy hearing what works for other people and I like sharing things I like, it's part of the reason I have a blog. I've been doing these monthly posts for 10 years and they also provide a nice little snapshot in my life at a moment in time! See more here! Some affiliate links may be included!
The flu bug finally hit us here so really the things we have been liking most lately are Advil, nyquil, the vaporizer, etc. BUT...the boys are back in school and I am sometimes breathe out of my nose so trying to get back to regular life!
1) Rounded Rectangular Frame
A small frame in our bedroom has been somewhat broken for years but when I was getting all the normal decor back out after Christmas, I decided that it was broken enough to get rid of and replaced it with one of these. I like the wood tone and the rounded edges is something just a little different. I bought 2 more just to have.
I found these last fall and they have become the boys' usual Friday lunchbox dessert (I split the box between them). I've stolen more than one when packing their lunches and they are pretty good. Chocolate filled little cookies. Maybe I should buy some just for myself sometime... (We got Matt a box of the strawberry filled ones for Valentine's Day and he liked those too.)
I've been working (a little) on this gallery wall and when I ordered 20 frames for it, I got some Michael rewards to use. Some browsing on their site led me to this vase which I immediately liked and bought pretty soon after that (with the sale and rewards, I got this + the next time for a whole $4). I think it's fun shades for spring. I liked it much more than the "blue" one (which looked more purple to me).
Somehow I've started hanging wreaths on our back door too and it still gives me a little jolt of seasonal joy every time I go through that door (which is multiple times a day). I just switched to this one for St. Patrick's Day, a holiday Matt never mind that I shop for (he has no complaints about any Halloween or St. Patrick's Day decor...any other holiday doesn't need anything, according to him). Do I need extra things? No. But it's fun.
5) Get Healthy U TV
I had been doing the same workout most week days for....way too long. I knew I needed to change it up but it just felt like way too much work to figure out what I should change it too. When Janssen talked about a deal to get a year of workout videos for 86 cents...I figured that was a good place to start! I signed up and then it took me a few weeks to figure out how to get the workouts on our apple tv (turns out...really easy) but since then...I have been loving these workouts. Not really in the last week being sick but before that I really did benefit from them. I was nearly immediately sore, knew I was working muscles in ways I hadn't before. I switch up my workouts constantly, usually picking a couple options the night before, depending on how much time I think I'll have. I especially like the Barre and HIIT workouts, usually doing around 22 minutes on week day mornings. (Although there are at least a few mornings a week I just get in 12 minutes). A year now costs $1.49 which is still a steal and definitely worth trying out for that price. There are just so many options at so many length and difficulty levels.
