Hey Friends Happy FRIYAY!   Let Me Tell Ya ~ It Has Been A WEEK  –  but more about that below . . .

First Let’s Talk About This Tropical FABULOUSNESS From CHICO’S!

So many of us just aren’t traveling right now, so I thought I would add a little VACAY VIBE to your July!

Y’all, I was so excited to add a few new things to my closet this season.  I felt like these prints from Chico’s were a MUST!

I love purchasing clothing that I sincerely enjoy wearing.  These pieces from Chico’s continue to be some of my favorites!  Worn together or with separates you already own, these tropical prints are sure to be in your wardrobe season after season!

Let me know if you find something too – I feel sure you will!

Beauty From The Inside Out:

Well y’all – I had a biggie on Tuesday – its been a year since radiation and surgery and I had a mammogram one-year follow-up.  STRESS-FULL!  First, let me just say, I Am So Happy- All Is Clear!!

But y’all – I was actually a bit surprised at how anxious I was about this test.  I know we’re only human and Lord knows 2020 has been stressful enough without adding cancer to the mix, but I was seriously not at my norm.  During the past 18 months as I’ve navigated through this breast cancer journey, I can honestly say that I have been at peace.  Well, mostly . . .  I mean, at least 90% calm and peace-filled I would say.  But for some reason, I was full-blown anxious the week prior to this office visit – and it kinda threw me for a loop.

I kept trying to trust and rely on God, but I just didn’t FEEL it.  I’m telling you this because so many of you give me such props for how I’ve handled this whole cancer journey and I want you all to know that We ALL have those moments of doubt.  Thankfully, we also serve a God who is there for us and LOVES US ANYWAY!  So very thankful for grace and mercy.  God Is Good At Every Turn.

Y’all enjoy the weekend!  Stay cool and stay safe my friends!
