Five Simple Things (August 19)

Hello.

Here are five things this week.

1. This Ambience.

Sometimes the light hits just right.

2. This Doormat.

Found this great doormat at our local food co-op and I just love it. It's made from eco-friendly materials like natural coconut fiber, dyed with AZO-free pigments, which is a definitely plus. I went on a hunt online trying to find it and I couldn't, but the brand is Down to Earth and it's their Basics collection, and here are one similar.

3. These Items.

Lots of good things came in the mail this week. Kinder Beauty Box, Dae Hair, Tan-Luxe (recommended to me), and Sephora samples. All of it was great and I am absolutely loving the eye brushes in the Kinder Beauty Box and the shave cream. I am also loving the Monsoon Deep Conditioner from Dae. The tanning lotion came from a recommendation and I love how it feels, and the tan is definitely a look of being sun-kissed.

4. This Cheese.

Cheese samples are definitely my thing.

5. This Kitty.

Always an aesthetic kitty.

Positive affirmations this week:

Setting boundaries will cause your life to change. Speaking from personal experience, you will lose people, even family, you will make people mad, you will also be shunned by the people you thought would love you no matter what. But, the best thing is, those people lack respect for you and setting boundaries calls them on their lack of respect. It's okay to lose people. Once you set those boundaries and practice keeping them, the right people will stay, and the right people will come into your life. Boundaries are your way of creating respect for yourself and self-love. It's hard to lose people with those boundaries, especially family members, but overall, it's their loss, because you deserve so much more than that. You can do this!
