“The earth will not continue to offer its harves

“The earth will not continue to offer its harvest, except with faithful stewardship. We cannot say we love the land and then take steps to destroy it for use by future generations.”
Pope John Paul II

When the year started, one of my New Years Resolutions was to participate in beach cleanup every month with @healthebay - welp. January and February went well. March and after, not so much. After coming to Colorado to quarantine, I realized I could still make a difference.

We have a country club in our neighborhood and there in the parking lot sits these dumpsters. Between trash blowing out of them or trash coming from club members who don’t live in our beautiful neighborhood who leave their trash behind, our streets were becoming littered. So instead of passing it by, when I go take Scout for a walk, I also take a trash bag. The first time I did it, I filled up a bag, dumped it in this dumpster and filled the bag again before we got home. It’s a 30 minute walk.

Is this changing the world? Not at all at once. But seeing trash and not letting it stay there does add up. We should be leaving this planet better then when we got there.

It seems like making a difference these days is out of reach and difficult to do. But if you see an issue, see how you can resolve it, no matter how small the act may seem.

So much is out of our control. Let’s do what we can to give back to our home and the our people.

Sending y’all so much love🖤

P.S. Since we’re in a pandemic especially but always, if you’re going to pick up trash, bring your gloves!

With all of the anxiety I’ve been feeling lately over things I can’t control, I’m going to start ending the day with poetry. So that the last thoughts in my mind aren’t of stress and chaos tornados but of stardust.

Sweet dreams, love🌙

Don’t mind me, I’m just fallin’ for you🍂

Oh! And I just put up a blog post with some cozy playlists for you to curl up with. Give it a listen and let me know what you think.

Sliding into Halloween like...😎

This year, Halloween activities are RISKY BUSINESS but we have plans for a movie marathon, special baked goods, and a cozy night in.

What are your plans this year?

So do you think this year is SALVAGE-ABLE?🛠

Lately, I’ve been brainstorming things I can do now to finish out 2020 that will start 2021 on a better note then the one that’s currently playing.

SAVE THIS POST for ideas and brainstorming:
💡Getting into a movement routine : note how I didn’t say “work out” or “fitness”. Just do something to move your body. Whether it’s trying out a new workout class, practicing some yoga between zoom calls, or taking a walk. Get your body moving!
💡Start journaling. If free writing isn’t your thing, try some prompts like what you’re grateful for today. If you want me to share the prompts I use, lmk!
💡Give yourself some goals. 2020 has felt a bit aimless so give yourself a few attainable goals.
💡Watch @thehomeedit ‘s new show on @netflix and get organizing! Buy some organizing tools from the dollar store or ikea!
💡Reach out. To your friends, families and reconnect if it’s been a minute in the quarantine time warp
💡Listen to motivational podcasts or sermons to get your heart right
💡Pick a book to curl up with. Either an introspective book or one that’s pure fun. Whatever you’re needing
💡Rearrange your space. Get rid of clutter and buy that piece you’ve been eyeing.

I have tons of these so if you want more, lmk and leave a comment if you have one to share!

P.S This is my idea of a mechanic. I’m hoping if I dress the part, all the helpful knowledge will just come to me😜
