Happy New Year...

A few days late.  But hey, life happens.  And it has been happening a lot to me lately.  I am not ready to share, but once I am, I will.  I promise.

So what does 2016 look like for you?  Did you make your New Year's Resolutions?

In the past, I haven't wanted to make any, because I wasn't great at follow through.  (In case you couldn't tell by the numerous posts about how I promise to be around more often.  Hey, I'm human.)  But follow through is something I have been working on.  And I am getting better at it.

Anyway, so I didn't necessarily make any resolutions for 2016 on New Year's Day.  But I had made them before New Year's Day.  Of course, I want to lose weight, like most do, get healthy... yadda yadda yadda.  But I've been working on getting healthy for a while now.  I am seeing small results.

I have resolved, however, that 2016 will be my best year ever.  Big changes are on my horizon.  Not only in my personal life, but in my business.  There is an energy surrounding us right now...  What can I say?  I can actually feel these changes happening.

This past year, I have worked harder than I have in a long time.  And I enjoyed every minute of it.  I have met new, amazing friends, and strengthened old friendships.  But this next year is going to bring me to places I have never been.

So some of the things that this year will have for me are that I will be running another half marathon at Disney.  I can't wait, but then again I can.  Such conflict about this.  I plan to further my business and actually accomplish what I've been wishing for for many years.  And I will post many pictures throughout my journey.  I also resolve to be a happier person, to be more involved with my kids, and make a whole lot of new memories with them.  We made a lot this past year, but this next year will bring so many more.

So tell me what you are looking forward to in this new year.  Have you made any resolutions?

Day 2/3 of Essential Oils

So I have been using the essential oil blend, Allerg-ease, for a few days now.  I am not sure it is working.  And I'm not sure that I am doin it correctly.  

This is why I haven't gone full force with essential oils.  I don't feel like I know how to use them properly.  I did have another brand of essential oils' rep tell me to use one of their blends, for a totally different ailment, back to back to back...  As in put it on, wait a few minutes, put it on again, and repeat.  Now, I want to believe in them.  I want them to work.  I am not a person who likes taking medicines.  

But so far, I am disappointed.  They haven't helped my allergies yet.  In fact, I've had to add another medicine to make it through my day normally.  So I am taking my Allegra, Tylenol Sinus, and using these essential oils.

So weigh in...  Who uses them?  How do you use them?  What brand?  Do you diffuse, use them topically, or ingest them?
