Give it Up?

It's been suggested, by some close to me, that I give up trying to blog and get a hobby makes money. However, I don't think I really blog that much anyways or about anything too interesting due to my awful computer, and that whole issue of not wanting to embarrass or call out those close to me by writing about them on the Internet, ha. I think the only way I could truly write a really consistently good blog would be if I wrote about more real things in my life and those around me. BUT even if I was comfortable with that I would bet money most people in my life would not be. Maybe I'll start an anonymous blog. Hmmmm. Also, what hobbies can I start that would make money? I'm sure if I devoted the time and know how to it I could make money off of blogging but I'm a self-aware woman and don't think that's going to happen.

I seriously considered selling Mary Kay on the side but hubby is so not on board with that idea. He has this crazy idea that I get stressed out easily and wouldn't end up liking something like that. I don't think I'm super crafty but maybe I can learn and start making something cool and sell it online and out of my home....Hmmmm....Or I like to dance and have to say am pretty good at it...nah. That could get messy. I suggested we get some more instruments and start a family band but that was shot down however I think it would be killer. I'll have to think some more on this...

We all struggle sometimes to balance everything we need and want to do in a day. Common advice is that we need to make the time for things that are truly important us.

The key to fitting a workout into your day is planning.  Creating, and sticking to, a workout routine is all about the planning. Set yourself up for success by planning ahead and thinking of a workout as a given part of your day. This doesn't mean you can never take a day off but once routine is established it's so much easier to stick to. Conversely, once it's broken it can be more challenging to reestablish. More than two days off, the harder it will be to get back at it. If you really want to workout, try what works for me to make a morning workout happen. 1. Plan It.  Write it in your planner.

The Female Vote

This past week there have been countless articles about the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment, which granted women the right to vote. I was so excited I bought a shirt off Etsy.   August 26 th  is recognized as Women’s Equality Day, commemorating the 1920 adoption of the 19 th Amendment to  the U.S. Constitution . As with most of our country's history, the suffrage movement was not without its own issues of racism and discrimination. Black women were not widely included in conventions nor always recognized for their work in the movement. While we celebrate 100 years of the female vote, it's important to remember that women in many states still faced years of unfair obstacles and discrimination in trying to vote. Black women (and men) continued the fight for true voting rights and in 1965 the  Voting Rights Act  was signed into law. This significant legislation provided clear legal support to ensure equal voting rights fo...
