Puppy play dates...SO 2021. Ok, so I feel

Puppy play dates...SO 2021.

Ok, so I feel like you guys need a puppy update! Benzo is a little over 5 months now and he is thriving (though he is very very small for his age). This is his friend Winston, who is younger than him, but happens to weigh double his weight 🙊🙊

Benzo is a true lover. Kisses all day, just wants to hang with the grown ups, and is constantly trying to win Ems over, but she’s still coming around. His color is blue/tan merle and I see his coat changing shades as he grows.

Benzo knows how to sit, stay, go to his bed, and his potty skills are getting there! He has learned to ring the bells by his bed, or by the door if he has to go outside. It’s not perfect, but I’m very impressed!

We crate him (and Ems) when we leave the home, and minimize his unsupervised time around the house. He also goes “on anchor” otherwise known as a 4 foot leash near his bed, throughout the day, so he knows where his spot in the house is located.

We hired a trainer and started on day 2, when he came home! Seriously... worth every single penny.

Fun fact: Benzo has the LOUDEST mouth. Like... he’s an angel (now) but C and I had a tough first 2 weeks. He wailed in his crate (and basically any time he wasn’t in our arms) until he lost his voice for a few days. It was touch and go for a while, and I definitely needed those reminders from C every time I wanted to go pick him up so he’d stop screaming.

These days, he enjoys eating, sitting on mom’s lap, and cuddling up in the toy basket. Him and sister have their own account now @frenchie_rx 🐶

Do Nothing.

Sounds easy... right?

Last year I read a fascinating book and I can’t stop going back to review it, and listening to every podcast the author, Celeste Headlee speaks on.

Do Nothing.
How to Break Away from Overworking, Overdoing, and Underliving.

It’s funny because although this book sits in the self-help section, it’s more like an “anti-self help book”, as the author mentions.

Anyone else out there realize how obsessed we’ve become with focusing on becoming better, stronger, fitter, more efficient, more successful, HAPPIER...? There are countless resources out there that will tell you how to get there and how to work for it. So many resources claiming to have the “hack” for making your life easier!

Problem is, what if some of those things don’t involve working MORE or harder, but LESS instead?

I can tell you one thing this past year has taught me, and that is to “work” less. To let the constant pressure and push to do more and be more, go. That includes searching for answers to make myself less stressed, calmer, more positive, the list goes on.
I learned to sit in some of my days off with nothing more than a cup of coffee, my dogs, and C, and become comfortable with NOT working, or scrolling, or reading about how tomorrow I can become more efficient with my time and “get more done”.

When did spending our free time doing nothing, become lazy?
When did choosing rest over work, put you behind? Behind what exactly?
Unfortunately for some of us, we are never satisfied.

“We are investing our time and energy and hard-earned money in things we think will make us more efficient, but those things end up wasting our time, exhausting us, and stressing us out without bringing us closer to our goals”.
“Essentially, we are working our way out of happiness and well-being. We’ve lost the balance between striving to improve and feeling gratitude for what we have”.
- Celeste Headlee 😘

Have you felt this way lately?
Any of you read this book?

Spending this New Years Eve in a totally different

Spending this New Years Eve in a totally different spot than the rest of 2020... the other side of the couch 😂

We’ll see if I can make it home from work before midnight 🤷🏻‍♀️ ya just never know! @freixenetusa will be waiting for me though. I guess I’ll share it with C too 😂

There’s no reason for me to recap 2020 on this post. I know this year has been difficult, yet one filled with GROWTH (for all of us). I can only hope that you all will take a quiet moment today, and reflect on what you have in life, as small as that may be. Keep it simple this NYE 🎇

✨✨Happy New Year friends ✨✨

What I’m leaving behind in 2020✨

What I’m leaving behind in 2020✨

* worrying about things I can’t change
* impatience
* sweets that aren’t “worth it” for me (I have found SO many amazing recipes and locals who bake using whole + natural ingredients)
* spanx- thanks for helping me through 2020, but every time I put them on/off I almost dislocate my shoulder
* feeling like I have to control everything (I blame my job!!😂 but it follows me home)
* saying “yes” to things because I figure I can make it all fit into my schedule, when in my gut I know I should be saying “no”
* days off spent working
* late nights watching TV- time to get through all those books I purchased
* mindless scrolling
* feeling like I have to keep up with anyone
* a scale (truthfully, I never weigh myself bc I don’t think the number alone matters but I have been tempted this year)
* our old backyard (which I love) but it’s time for a remodel y’all!
* last but not least... having expectations for myself to be anything other than who I am ☺️

I don’t expect 2021 to be perfect, but I do hope for more peace and unity 🙏🏻

I would LOVE to hear what you’re leaving behind in 2020😘

*Out of office* 🎅🏼

I realized lately that I’ve been traveling at light speed for months! It’s time to hit the pause button 🆘

I mention this because I know there are many of you out there feeling the same- overwhelmed, tired, and stressed out.
Working hard is rewarding, and I’m a fan of that, but maybe this holiday you need a little break? Give in to that too. 😘 You deserve it.

C and I walked 8 miles around town last weekend, and found so many random things to laugh at, and be grateful for. I kept thinking I had to get home to finish a project, it was hard to get out of the mindset. In the end, it was a day for spontaneity and I definitely need more of those in my life.
It’ll just be us and the frenchies this Christmas but I can’t wait to take it all in. And another thing... I feel in the spirit much more when I dress for it! These leggings are from @goldsheepclothing and still available!

What are your plans for Christmas this year? Are you rewarding yourself with a little downtime?
