Good morning blog friends! I am sharing a few highlights from 2 link ups today. First up is Amazon Prime. Today I have a few finds from 2025. Tomorrow I will share fashion finds on Amazon.
I wanted to have an alarm I keep on me for safety reasons.
Anyone else out there dry brush? My niece told me about this, so I try to do this several nights a week.
I ordered some new sheets last week that are cooling sheets. I will see how they feel when it really gets warm. I am thanful it hasn't been too warm yet!
I heard great things about this polish on several influencer Instagram accounts. This is a very neutral polish and it will last about 4 days without chipping, which is pretty good for me without using gel or dip.
Dance shoes
Most of you know I have been taking dance lessons the past 6 months. I finally bought me some practice shoes. They are really comfortable too!
My weekend began by spending time with my great nieces and nephews. I celebrated my great niece's 3rd birthday Friday night.
Me and one of her big sisters. This girl always gives me the biggest hugs and I can't get enough of them!
I spent Friday night at my parents to help with my mom while my dad had somewhere to go. I came home Saturday and it was torrential rains and storms all day long. So many roads in our area are flooded. I am so thankful there is no rain in the forecast this week! I was able to get a few things done at home and had some sleepy time tea in this mug I found while going through old things.
Sunday, I went to church and had community group that night. The in-between times were hard, as Sundays often are for me. I cried a lot, but have realized to embrace all my tears and know they are a constant part of healing that is just part of my journey until Heaven.
Have a great Monday!

I have not heard of dry brushing- will check it out! Your pictures from your weekend are so good. The birthday party looks fun and festive. Sorry for your tears on Sunday. I hope that overall you felt uplifted and loved despite painful emotions. Have a great Monday!
ReplyDeleteThanks Maria. I am thankful for a new day!
DeleteThose cooling sheets sound intreguing, i've always slept SO hot and it has just gotten progressively worse. I might have to check them out! Your greats are just adorable. Spending time with littles is always time well spent!
ReplyDeleteI agree! I treasure those little people so much.

DeleteAre those the slippers that you burned the night we sat around the fire?! This made me laugh. I'm so glad we got to see each other on Friday, and that you spent time with your greats and family. I'm excited about our Friday night this week! I'm so thankful for you, and our many phone calls. I love you so much, my friend. Happy Monday!

ReplyDeleteIt is a good one to have.
DeleteI'm sorry you had a tough Sunday. The rest of your weekend looked fun! That safety key chain looks like a great safety option. I do have a dry brush but don't think to use it that often. Thanks for reminding me. Those slippers look so cozy!

ReplyDeleteThank you Andrea. I am thankful for a new day and hopeful for my week!
DeleteI'm sorry to hear you had a rough day. I imagine quiet time at the house is the hardest. I'm going to check out the nail polish, and think about the dry brushing too. I just bought some of elf primer/sunscreen that you recommended. Love it so far!
ReplyDeleteThanks. Some days just seem a little harder. That sunscreen is one of my favorites!
DeleteI've had a dry brush for quite awhile now but have yet to actually try it!
ReplyDeleteIt is a new, relaxing habit!
DeleteWhat a great weekend! I love the purplish and found it the cheapest on HSN. I have a dry brush but haven’t tried it yet. I should!

I'm so sorry to hear that you had a rough day. I love that sweet mug.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you treated yourself to some great dancing shoes! They look fantastic! I'm so sorry you had some tough moments, but so glad you have good friends and family to share some good times with. I kept seeing the terrible flooding in Memphis on social media! Those storms were terrible. We got a ton of rain, too. Glad this week is sunny!
