The ABC's of an Inspired Life

This used to be on a poster above my bed when I still lived with my parents.  It really is a very inspirational poem when you are feeling like you can't take anymore!  Hope you like it!

The ABC's of an Inspired Life

Ask for what you want.

Be who you say you are.

Care about others.

Dare to live your dreams.

Ease through the day.

Find the best fit.

Give to another.

Hug a friend.

Inspire someone to greatness.

Jump over a boundary.

Kick a bad habit.

Leap across a fear.

Mention something uplifting.

Never say never.

Open your mind and heart.

Pursue your innermost passions.

Quit complaining.

Restore your smile.

Set your sights high.

Trust yourself.

Use all the day.

Value everything.

Wait until it feels right.

Xpress yourself.

Yank weeds from your mental garden.

Zoom into the now.

On another note...tomorrow we go to the doctor and I am getting more and more anxious about what the doctor will let us do...I really hope that she will let us induce, but we will have to wait and see.

Nothing seems to be going right at work today, so I am currently at a stand still with getting things ready for my leave, which does not make me feel good...but they will only be without me a few days since I will be working from home while I'm on maternity leave...I know, dedication right ;)  I can honestly say that I love my new job...who would have thought Local Government could be so much fun and interesting...it's better than banking that is for sure! 

Well, if I don't post tomorrow after my appointment then everyone knows I'm in the hospital!  I can't wait to meet our Ladybug!

The future depends on what we do in the present. - Mahatma Gandhi

Me at 40 weeks...can't believe it is almost over!

December 2022--Week 4 Meals

  Day 1: Christmas Day!!!  We had the a huge family meal at our house on Christmas Day!  Baked ham, baked beans, mac and cheese...all the fixings!!!  I hope you and your family had a great Christmas!  I know we did!! Cookies for Santa! Leaving their glitter dust so Santa can find the house! Opening presents Christmas morning! Day 2: Lasagna Soup with Breadsticks  It was still really cold in NC the day after Christmas, so what's better than a soup on a cold day?  I tried my hand at the lasagna soup recipe and my family gave this a 4 out of 5!  One thing we noted, we would probably add a little more broth, as the noodles sucked up the juice and it was less of a soup.  This recipe also calls for hot sausage...if you aren't a hot sausage person, this may be a little too spicy.  We are probably going to use mild next time we make it!  Lasagna is one of my favorite Italian meals, so this was a good spin on it! https://barefeetinthekitchen.com/lasagna-soup/ Day 3: Crockpot Swiss Steak

Hello again!  Are you ready for Week 2 of meals? Night 1: A family favorite!  Steak, Baked Potatoes, Baked Beans and Crescent Rolls! There is no recipe for this!  My husband loves ribeye steaks, the more fat the better he says LOL.  I make the baked beans the way my mama made them.  A can of Bush's Baked Beans with brown sugar, molasses, ketchup, and Worcestershire sauce, pop in the oven (uncovered) for about 30 minutes at 350*.  They are SOOO good!   Night 2: Brooklyn and I had our Little League Cheer Christmas Party, so we had lots of food from the cheer moms!  Scott, Kaitlin and William hit up Bojangles.  Kaitlin had a game and William had basketball practice!  Divide and conquer night for sure! Night 3: Homemade Pizza rolls with Salad I wasn't home for this meal because I had a Board Meeting at work, so Scott made this one.  If I had of prepared better, this is one that you can make ahead, freeze and take out what you want to cook, but I didn't have time.  Something tha

December 2022--Week 1 Meals

  Week one of meals started December 4th!  I didn't take pictures of the meals, I'll do that in January, but I will post the links to the recipes for everyone! Night 1: Slow Cook Poor Man's Stew!  This was delicious!  One thing I'm really bad for, is taking out the ingredients that I don't like (onion, green peppers, etc.) but this challenge, I told myself I would make the dishes true to form!  This made a lot of food, I was able to give some to my parents.  My parents essentially live in front of us, my mom is always asking us "what's for dinner" (I'm telling you, my husband is an amazing cook!).  So anytime we have something left over, we make sure we give them some.  December in North Carolina has been really cold, so a stew on a cold Sunday was perfect!  Anything I can throw in the crockpot and forget, is my kind of meal!  This was a keeper in my family!   https://100krecipes.com/slow-cooker-poor-mans-stew/  Night 2: Crock Pot Chicken Pot Pie w
