Weekly Inspiration

Hello Lovelies!
"Cherish the time you have with people because nothing lasts forever, and things can change really quickly."

I think with this week being Thanksgiving, for those of us here in the United States, that this quote is kind of perfect. Thanksgiving is all about being with family and being thankful for what you have, it's also about cherishing your family. 

Unfortunately because I work retail I won't be able to be with my family this year, I'll be working and have to deal with the dreaded Black Friday (Thanksgiving Blitz) shoppers. Last year was really hard on me, it was my first black friday and my anxiety hit me really hard. I'm really hoping that this year won't be as bad, but I'm not getting my hopes up. Last year I was a cashier, this year I'm not sure if I'll be a cashier or if I'll be crowd control.

Your Thoughts (Survey Time!)

Hello Lovelies!
Since I've been trying to clean up my blog and get back into a routine, I decided it was time to do a survey and see what you think needs to be done. This isn't the first time I've done a survey, but it's been a while and I think it's time I get some new updated feedback on what y'all like and what you want to see in the future.

If you have a few minutes please take this survey, I just want to pick your brain. I want to know what you like, don't like, what you want to see more of, less of, etc! I also left a spot at the bottom of the survey for you to leave any extra comments or ideas! Thank you so much for sticking by me even though I haven't been as active over the past year!

Here's the survey!

XoXo,
Lori

Currently: November 2016

Hello Lovelies!
It's been a while, probably a year actually, since I last did a Currently post. I'm not sure why I stopped doing them, I've always had fun with it, it's a quick easy post, and I get to share with you what's going on.

So here's what's going on in my life this month!

Links to Love

Hello Lovelies!
So far it's been a pretty good day, I went to the gym this morning and now I'm super happy! Today was my first time back in the gym in about 2 1/2 months. I thought I had lost all of the progress I had made this year, but I actually did better than I thought I would.

I was able to get in 4 miles in 20 minutes on the bike and I did 60 leg presses with 70lb weight. Before my hiatus from the gym I was leg pressing 100lbs, so I'm definitelynot where I used to be, but I'm not too far off.

My goal today was to test myself and see how much I could handle without irritating my newest injury and my chronic pain. I did really well and experienced very little pain, so I'm excited to get back in a routine.

Anyway, that's enough of that for today, so here's this weeks Links to Love!
