Hey everyone! So I have not been able to catch up with everyone’s comments from last week’s post, but I will do that this week. I saw some of your responses and I’m glad that most of you are safe and healthy. It is crazy what has gone on in the world, and I’m so incredibly sad to hear of everyone who has been negatively impacted both with health and even all of the small business owners out there. I have been doing my best to support our small business owners at a time like this. When we took these pictures, my fiance and I actually stopped at a local business. They make snow cones, and are located right next to the bridge that leads to the beach right near where we live. We started talking to the owner and asking him how business has been because this is when spring break and tourist season starts. He’s doing ok considering, but I just feel so bad for small business owners right now. Our businesses have been doing ok, and the one is considered an essential business, but my heart hurts for the business owners who will possibly lose everything, if they have not already. I know that’s not something I should be worrying about, and I should be worrying about the health of the world, but y’all always get to hear things that have been heavy on my heart. I guess, what I’m trying to say is at a time like this, if you can, try and support small businesses that are still open and functioning.
With everything going on, I’ve started adding another topic to my Youtube channel. As y’all know, I’m very anti MLM and that is predominantly what my channel is about, however, I’ve decided to start adding true crime. True crime is another passion of mine, and has been ever since I took my first psychology class in high school. I was always watching the news with my mom and I remember when the OJ Simpson case was constantly being broadcasted to the world. It wasn’t until I started taking my psych class that I was truly interested in the mind of someone who is disturbed. Is it nature or nurture in some cases? That’s what interested me a lot.
I’m going to make the true crime topic a weekly thing as long as I can actually do the proper research in time and create a good video. So if you are at home and bored, my first one was a mix of anti MLM and true crime, but this past Friday’s video was more of a conspiracy type video. I’ll add them below along with the weekly linkup. These videos are longer than most of my videos, but I truly enjoy true crime and researching all of the details. My mom is finally back to blogging, she took some time off because it’s been really hard for her to be able to get dressed and take photos because I mean, she’s been at home and crafting to pass by the time. I actually told her to put her Christmas decorations back up and watch Hallmark movies to pass the time and lift her spirits haha.

Monica, you look amazing, mu friend! I love this simple sassy LBD. And true crime is so fascinating! We just started watching Making a Murderer last night and we are hooked! I also loved Don’t F*** with Cats. So freaking good and creepy! I am glad your mom is back to blogging! Heading there to see what she has going on!
Stay safe and healthy and positive, my friend.

I found my psychology classes so interesting I actually became a psych. major… then went back to get my masters in education.

I would love to go back to school and get into psychology. I interested me back in college but never really took it upon myself to read/learn more. It’s really sad that a lot of people and business are suffering right now. We are doing our best to support our local business owners but as is it’s only so much. I am glad that you guys are doing okay and hanging in there. We are too. Pulling my hair out slowly with homeschooling but in the grand scheme of things, it’s nothing compared to the situation of the world. Happy Wednesday!

The sun typically lifts my spirits so I typically try to spend some time outdoors several times a day. I think it is good for the kiddos too. Getting dressed has been good for me and trying to find what makes me happy and moody to try to be happy more!

It’s very difficult to absorb all the effects of the virus. I am glad you are doing okay and got your mom back to blogging. I enjoy her blog too. You look fabulous in your LBD!
Stay safe!

I love the simplicity of a classic LBD. I’m now actively avoiding big companies where possible and trying my best to support small, independent companies. Amazon and Zara will survive so I’m not giving them my money! Stay safe xxx
