The Best One Yet - Tea Talk

After a two week break, I'm back! Can you believe that it's already December? Where did the year go? I've been seeing quotes all over Instagram saying "May this last month of the year be your best one yet". I thought about it and there is some validity to that statement. This is the last month of the year and we should make it a good one, right?! But how do we make December our best month? How do we finish the year out strong?

In my usual fashion, I thought of a few things that I plan to do to make December 2019 a great closing to the year...

  • I plan to wrap up as many projects and lose ends as I can. I want to go into 2020 with a blank slate, which will leave me open to new projects and goals to focus on. For example, I'm currently working on three knitting projects. Yes ...three. I'm hoping to get those done before the year is over. 
  • I hope to get organized before going into the New Year. In general, I'm an organized person by nature but I do have a few things that I've been wanting to update, like my wedding planner, my spiritual journal, and my day-to-day planner. I'd like to head into the New Year with everything up-to-date, so I know exactly where I need to be and what I need to be doing. 
  • I hope to truly enjoy the Holiday Season. Thanksgiving was great, I got to spend time with my family and I hope that carry that over into December. This time is my favorite time of year, so this shouldn't be very hard but just for planning sake... I want to fully indulge in Holiday Music, make homemade cookies, have dinners/lunches with my close friends, spend time with my family and catch up on all the Holiday movies that have been stacking up on my DVR! I also have a few series that I've been watching that I hope to wrap up (The Soprano's & Friend's).
  • I'm also interested in thinking of some new Holiday Traditions to start and finalizing my realistic goals for the New Year.
All of which I plan to do without overextending myself of course. Each week, my plan is to make a to-do-list and slowly work through one thing at a time. The key is to go into the New Year feeling refreshed. And hey, if I don't get all of these things done, so what? No pressure. But a girl can dream right?

To anyone out there, I challenge you to figure out what you can do to make this last month meaningful! It can be big or small, but ask yourself, what will help you go into 2020 feeling good? Happy Holidays!

"May your days be Merry and Bright, and may all your Christmases be white"

20 Random Facts About Me

Happy Thursday! Clearly there is no rhyme or reason to when I post at this point. When I first started, I had this whole structured plan but that seemed a bit too stuffy, so now I post what feels good, when it feels right! Anyhow, I thought it would be interesting to share 20 random facts about myself. I seem that see that as a common post on most blogs, and a fun read! Here we go... My fiancé and I met because we were best friends in high school. We started dating our senior year and have been together for over 10 years. The day we get married this year will be 11!  I have a 5 1/2 year old Dog, who I still refer to as my Pup. He's a Schnauzer/Terrier mix and he's the biggest diva I know lol.  I love crafting, which I'm pretty sure I inherited from my Mom. She's really into restoring furniture and sewing. I prefer knitting best, but I don't discriminate.  Remember the show Glee? That was me in Middle School & High School. I was an all out Choir Girl and t...

Dear Teenage Self - Tea Talk

Hi friends! Lately I've been thinking about what I would tell my younger self now that I am more than a decade out of high school. I have learn so much about life since then. I've shed many tears, laughed until my stomach hurts and gone through many seasons of life. In retrospect, I admire the girl that I was then but that is not without saying there aren't many times that I wish I could go back and be like "girl, let me fill you in on this". I'm sure we all have those moments from time to time.  Here is what I'd tell my teenage self... Dear Hil,  High School will not be easy. Your in this weird paradox between being the nerdy honors student but also being pretty darn cool. You can be a bit intimidating at times but that's because you feel like you have to be strong all the time. People will like you, but there will also be people who try to make your life hell. You never really know why. I hate to tell you this but you will deal with bullies for most ...
