The Friday Fit: Let's Do This!
Welcome to my new series called The Friday Fit! This is my chance to share +/- seven things that I’ve been loving and/or inspired by lately. For me, it’s extremely important to reflect and continuously find things to be grateful for. Consider this my weekly exercise to reflect on all of the GOOD things happening — big and small. Perhaps this will encourage you to do the same. 😊
Daily mile walks with BK and Lil Walter Harvey, we’ve hit a two week streak!
My evening routine, I’ve been consistent with taking my vitamins every night since January and I’ve noticed a big difference. I take Ritual Women’s 18+, Equilibria CBD (25mg soft gel) for anxiety and a restful sleep. You can read more on my CBD journey here. I also take magnesium for migraines and sleep - definitely consult with your doctor prior to taking.
Managed to imperfectly apply this peel + stick wallpaper that was generously gifted and miraculously I’m still married. All jokes aside, we struggled to put it up and still have another room to do. Send prayers. Dressing room details available here.
Made Chrissy Teigen’s Spicy Miso Pasta and it did not disappoint. I’m still dreaming about it.
My sister, Kristen, produced her first big news story on two new solar farms that are now serving customers near Danville, VA. Couldn’t be more proud of her!
Celebrating every last bit of summer in our backyard while sipping on Blue Chair Bay’s Skinny Piña Colada. (By the way, you can still use CARALYN for free shipping on BCB in select states here.)
TGIF and Happy September, my friends! I’ve been seeing an influx of fall outfit inspiration on my feed and as much as I love fall fashion, I’m not sure how to feel about it yet. I’ve started sharing on the blog and on my IG feed but I’m still rocking summery dresses and shorts around the house. I cannot believe this weekend is Labor Day! We plan on spending as much time as possible outside with a socially distant get together or two in our backyard.
This past week BK and I have been working on a lot behind the scenes and preparing for the rest of the year. It has taken us some time but I think we’ve finally found our groove in working together since he was furloughed in March. He’s been a huge help. BK may/may not have agreed to do a Q+A on my stories next week so stay tuned for that!
We’ve been trying to keep LWH active and we’ve been going on daily walks in our neighborhood each morning, they’ve become my favorite part of the day. I cherish the quiet time with my boys. We also started watching New Girl on Netflix, if you haven’t already seen and you’re looking for a lighthearted TV show — it’s a good one.
I look forward to sharing more each week with you, I hope you enjoyed The (first ever) Friday Fit! Feel free to leave any questions or suggestions below, thank you for reading!
