My March 2016 In a Nutshell


Hey, all! This is one of my monthly nutshells for you to read today! Hope you enjoy!

March 1st, 2016: Went ahead and got groceries for this day and even got Starbucks, too! Even made dinner for that night as well.

March 2nd, 2016: Did my usual chores and watched a movie called "Miss You Already" and I will warn you, if you rent it from redbox be prepared to get your tissue box out. Just warning you now! Even meditated tonight, put laundry away and tidied my room up before bed (weird on the chores I know).

March 3rd, 2016: Got a new video filmed for my YouTube channel today; did take my panicked dog to the vet; even tried some of the new Citrus Green Tea Latte with coconut milk from Starbucks today- super yummy! Highly recommend it! Saved the rest for tomorrow morning.

March 5th, 2016: Got my health guide all finished up today; edited my new YouTube video for my channel; watched "Across the Universe" on Netflix (if you've never seen that movie, I highly recommend it!); also did some yoga before I headed to sleep that night.

March 6th, 2016: This day was weird I woke up at 6am to discover I had chest pain (thanks, anxiety!) and since I was up super early, I did take a nap later on (which was super needed). Got my chores done and even made dinner, dessert, and an appetizer today. I even recieved old 1971 Betty Crocker recipe box from my Grammy (super awesome by the way).

Did some yoga tonight as well and planned stuff out in my planner, too.

March 9th, 2016: Woke up and did the stretching routine (as best I can) out of Kate's book "Pretty Happy" (I've never had so much energy for that day!); got one of two YouTube videos filmed today.

March 21st, 2016: Had my last therapy session (for a while as my therapist is heading on maternity leave soon); she gave me a book as a nice reward called "The Purpose Driven Life" by Rick Warren and I couldn't wait to read it! She also gave me some "homework" to do while she's on maternity leave (it's like super easy stuff to do. not complicated by the way). Went to Target (again!) and walked around and I got a few things while I was there- Stevia packets, mystic mango kombucha, burt's bees mango lip balm, and one other thing I forgot. Even meditated tonight, too.
