Bye 2020! Hello 2021!

 And just like that, Christmas has come and gone!  In a mere 4 hours, 2020 will be too.  As we ponder what 2021 has in store for us, I want to hear your New Years Resolutions!  Comment in the comments

Mine, you may ask, is simple.  Not gonna go crazy with a lot because I never stick to them.  

It's simple, to lose weight.  If I don't do it now, I'm never gonna do it.  So now that my seasonal job is over, I'm going to make myself get up and use the gym we have in our apartments.  At least do some sit-ups every day.  Gotta get rid of this fat! Of course, it comes with eating right as well.  I'm sticking to Chicken and fish!  If anyone has any food advice, please feel free to write to me in the comments.  

I will be recording my progress and maybe posting it on Instagram if I feel confident enough.  I've always been insecure about my body so hopefully, I can inspire someone, anyone to do the same.  Wish me luck!

And I shall wish you luck on your new year's resolutions as well!  Don't forget to follow me on Instagram @lovablelilamy

 And Remember!  No Excuses!!!!

Happy New Year! 

Bad Blood

I have a small circle of friends for a reason.  Within that small circle, seems I have a frenemy.  Perhaps I can chalk it up to that person being very young and him not knowing better.  However, he's "grown" so he should be able to handle a little confrontation.  Besides, he is the one who started it.  Being as it is the end of the year, and I don't want to go into next year with bad blood, I've decided to write it out instead.  
I've been working a lot lately since the holiday season has started and haven't had any time for my small circle of friends.  I did get out the last two nights to chat and have some wine.  The first night, the frenemy and one of my original best friends kidnapped me!  We had makeup and wine night! Each of us had fun and it was muchly needed.  
Fast-forward two days, I went to one of my original best friend's house to do the same thing, minus the makeup.  
She brought to my attention that the frenemy told her to "watch her stuff around me".  
I was flabbergasted!
Mind you I've known her for much longer than the frenemy.  Still, I would never steal from them. 
Trust me there have been a million times I could have but I'm not that type of person.  I cherish my friends, even if we don't speak for a while, my best friends will always have my heart.  
To those people, they know who they are!
Anyway, I guess I was feeling some type of way because I felt like the frenemy was trying to come in between me and my best friend but she assured me she's known me long enough to know my character and she knows I would never.  
I've asked both of my best friends for advice and have decided to let it go.  Like I said, I don't want to go into this new year with bad energy.  And I'd like to encourage you to do that same.  Let the bad energy go.  Do not let your past reflect your future.
Happy New Year!

Its Been A While

Sorry I've been M.I.A.  Just haven't been the best version of myself so no inspiration to write.  I have even been a grinch for most of the holiday season which is not like me at all!  
However, there is nothing like Christmas movies, a glass of wine, and sitting by the fire to make your heart swell with the Christmas spirit!  My daughter is currently making smores! Yummy!  
Like me, I'm sure many of you haven't had the best year but being as it is the holidays, we must endure! 
The Christmas spirit has given me hope!  I know that sounds cheesy but during these dire times, a little bit of hope never hurt anyone right?
So, let's not let the negativity ruin our Christmas cheer.  And let us not forget Christmas is not about the presents, Its about the warm fuzzy feeling you have when you're with the people you love.
Let the Christmas movies and songs warm your heart like they did the Grinches and mine!
What's your favorite Christmas song?
Mine is O Holy Night
...
Oh and one more thing, don't forget to wish our lord and savior a Happy Birthday.
Happy Holidays!
