Happy February!

updated on February 1, 2021February 1, 2021Leave a Comment on Happy February!

Hello everyone! Happy February! This is a month full of activity. We’re celebrating Black History Month, birthdays, Valentine’s Day, and so much more. We’re also hoping for a respite from COVID-19. I’m really hoping things get better soon.

  • I so love our church family! Our Honeybee received birthday treats from church friends who have become family. Such an amazing treat. #sweetdtreats #homebakedgoods #birthdaytreats #birthdaysweets #ricekrispytreats #birthdaycakes #unicorn #unicorns #unicornlover #birthdays #treatboxes #birthdaygirl๐ŸŽ€ #smallbusiness #localbusiness #supportlocalbusiness #moistcupcakes #yummytreats #myfriendsareawesome #entrepreneurlife

Iโ€™ve seen these beautiful setups throughout the streets of my city for a while now and I always think how adorable they are. With the pandemic, I wanted my loved ones to experience all the hype of their birthday without the danger of the crowds. SO...I contacted our local @cardmyyard franchise. They were so easy to work with and so very friendly. They not only did a fantastic job under cover of night, but they did it twice. Yesterday was my husbandโ€™s birthday! For some reason I couldnโ€™t post on IG yesterday so Iโ€™ll make sure to follow up with his shout out later as I still want him to have his shine too. If you are in the 540, 571, or 703 area code and want the local family we used, just send me a DM! I highly recommend! ๐Ÿฎ. ๐—ญ๐—ผ๐—ผ๐—บ ๐—ญ๐—ผ๐—ผ๐—บ. Have a family and friends birthday party via Zoom. I hosted one for my husband yesterday and it was great especially for friends he hasnโ€™t seen since the pandemic and some since high school!!! He was as so happy to see them. Iโ€™m having a mini one with my mom so she can see her oldest granddaughter online. She hasnโ€™t seen her in person in a year so you know sheโ€™s ready! Free account gives you 30 minutes and thatโ€™s really all you need for singing happy birthday and opening gifts with cake. ๐Ÿฏ. ๐—–๐˜‚๐—ฟ๐—ฏ๐˜€๐—ถ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ ๐—ฒ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜†๐˜๐—ต๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด! One thing about this pandemic is the convenience of no contact is everywhere. Take advantage. Arrange curbside pickup for the balloons๐ŸŽˆ, cake ๐ŸŽ‚, flowers ๐Ÿ’, and ๐ŸŽ. Itโ€™s safe and contactless! Shoot, you can ever do a birthday meal! ๐Ÿฐ. ๐—ฅ๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ฑ! My dad and siblings really wanted to be able to say happy birthday on zoom to my husband yesterday but schedules are hard sometimes. No worries! My brother recorded a really nice birthday greeting for S. and we were able to play it for him...safely with no contact. Love it!

If you are having a chaotic, stress-filled, frustrating day...breathe. Itโ€™s okay. You have this. Hereโ€™s what has been helping me. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ๐—ง๐—ฎ๐—ธ๐—ฒ ๐—ถ๐˜ ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฒ ๐—บ๐—ผ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜ ๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐—ฎ ๐˜๐—ถ๐—บ๐—ฒ. One task, one second, one minute, one hour, one day. Check off that task list one item at a time. Today, donโ€™t focus on the big picture.

I really love lists and I like to check or cross off things as they are done. Itโ€™s satisfying to me to see a list that has been completely crossed through. I actually feel accomplished. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ๐——๐—ฒ๐—น๐—ฒ๐—ด๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ. Oh, I wish I could do it all.

I cannot feed the baby, answer an email, and cook dinner at the same time...well, I can but it isnโ€™t pretty or peaceful. I have no problem tagging my partner in, and neither should you. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ๐—™๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—น ๐—ฏ๐—ฒ๐˜๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฟ? I hope so.
