Struggling

Image result for Struggling Quote




This past weekend I saw some photos of myself that truly made me just want to break down and cry. Struggling with my weight and it isn't getting any easier for me. I eat healthy, I do exercise (could do more) and yet nothing seems to be working. My medical issues come into play when I think about my weight and it has just been killing me these last few months. I am trying to Breath and work through it but there are days I just want to hide away and break down crying. This too shall pass, but when?

Wine Vibes

It's always so great when you get to explore and enjoy a wine weekend, especially when you get to do it in great company. My cousin Kelly is amazing and 2 years ago suggested that the Boylan women start a wine tasting tradition where we can all get together, catch up and best of all Drink Wine!! This past weekend was nothing short of AMAZING! We got to welcome in a new Boylan Woman (Natalie) and enjoy some delicious wine and other treats along the way.

First stops were The Olive Press and Jacuzzi Vineyards which just so happened to be in the same location right across the room from each other.





We then headed over to Cornerstone of Sonoma  where we got to walk through artist inspired gardens, have a wonderful lunch and wander through the amazing shops.
















It is always such an amazing time to be spent with family and always seems to go by too quick. Looking forward to more adventure with these Wonderful Ladies. <3

Purpose

Lately I have been feeling as if I am lacking a purpose. I feel like I go through the motions of life the way I am supposed to. Wake up, go to work, come home, eat, sleep and then just repeat it all again. The last month I have been fortunate enough to have every weekend off; which let me tell you has been quite amazing.

One of my Best Friends Graduated from college and I was fortunate to be there for her along her journey and to celebrate with her an her family.




I have had the opportunity to soak up the sun with my friend and her family while they were camping locally.



Visits with my Family, no matter how draining they can sometimes be are always welcomed. Especially the ones I also get to share with Friends who are my family as well.




I look over these small things and realize that I have so much to live for. I see their smiles, hear their voices and know that I do have a purpose far greater than myself. I may get caught up with the mundane everyday of work but then I just need a moment to step back and realize that there is more for me to appreciate and be thankful for.

Like Beautiful Sunny Day's spent outdoors with a cup of coffee and conversations from a good friend.

An upcoming trip to spend time with some of my favorite ladies in the whole world who I not only get to call Family but Friends as well. While meeting the newest addition to our lovely clan.

Everyday is a blessing and I am learning to appreciate the days that are slow and take time for myself and to remember that I don't always have to be on the go. I don't always need to be surrounded by others. I can take the time to Breath and rejuvenate for the adventures that are yet to come.
