451: It Works

It is 10:49pm.

I just finished playing "would you rather" with Julien.

He asked me, "Would you Rather spend all of your life with your eyes open? Or spend the rest of of your life with your eyes shut."

I asked him if I would be able to sleep with my eyes open...

He said, "No...but maybe you could tape your eyes shut and then you could sleep." lol

I don't think he meant for that to be a super deep question, but as I just read back over it--that could lead to some pretty serious discussions lol.

These kids...

Anyways, I have completely wasted today away on Facebook.

I mean, I did bring all my festival stuff back to our place and wash some clothes, but other than that I have just been being lazy on purpose for once.

Tomorrow we return back to our place from dog sitting.

I don't think we have stayed more than four or five days consistently there yet...

Maybe six? I'm not even sure...

Anyways, yesterday I joined the It Works team.

Don't worry, I am not trying to sell anything in this blog...this is just something that happened in my life and I am hoping that it brings in some sustainable income for my family and myself.

Anyways, one of the BIG reasons I got "sucked in" by a friend is that they have these random acts of kindness days where they give back to the people that work for them...and on top of that they are doing a 12 days of Christmas Wish giveaway. And if you are on their team, you can make a video with your Christmas Wish and maybe it will get granted.

I posted a video yesterday and wished for a house.

I am so very thankful to have a place to stay...you have no idea how thankful I am...but I had prayed right before making my video about either choosing a house or a trip to Hawaii and I even had the "Hawagee fund" sitting right next to me to show in the video....but when the live feed started rolling and I started talking my heart told me I needed to shoot for the moon and ask for a house...so I did.

Will I win? Who knows...

But it is always fun to make a Christmas Wish.

(P.S. I will get those kids to Hawaii somehow)

Anyways, I am pretty excited about their products and hope it leads me to a healthier lifestyle and hopefully some weight loss.

For the longest time, after Elijah passed away I didn't want to lose the postpartum weight because I felt like it was the only thing left of my body that was connected to him.

But it is time to live healthier and lose some weight. I am taking care of myself so I can better take care of others...

But yeah...today was kind of a brain rot day.

I needed one after all the craziness I have put myself through lately.

Time for some rest though....

Good night everyone.

Please keep praying for our world. Pray for my family. Pray for me. And always always pray for my sweet Elijah.

Hi sweet boy.

Hi my sunflower.

Hi Elijah.

Look at that little face of determination.

You were trying so hard to hold your head up and make me proud.

I was so proud of you then, and still proud of you now.

You have no idea how much you inspire me every single day.

I love you my boogie.

Miss you always.
