I missed last week’s recap so today you get a two-for.  It’s been a very busy 2 weeks for me, and not necessarily in a good way.  BUT I have a new mantra!  I read it yesterday, and it really resonated with me.

My new mantra

It makes me feel so much more ready to tackle the world!

Here’s what’s been happening on the blog for the last couple of weeks.

I hope you all have a FABULOUS week!

Weekly Recap

by Melanie Adams

It’s Sunday, which means it’s weekly recap time!  It’s a HOT one here in Memphis today!  I need to get some yard work done so I don’t get a nastygram from my homeowner’s association but I think only my front yard will get done in this heat.  That’s all they can see anyway.  I’m looking forward to cooler temps.  We’ve got highs in the 70s forecast this week.  70s!  In July!  In the south!

In case you missed it, here’s what was on the blog this week:

  • I shared the contents of my Spring Fling Vox Box from Influenster in, appropriately named, Influenster Spring Fling Vox Box.

  • Better late than never, I finally recapped my experience with the Feel the Force Premium Package, which was part of Star Wars Weekends.

  • Finally, I told you about a few things that have gotten my attention lately in Things That Got My Attention.

  • For those of you who are fans of my Facebook page or follow me on Instagram or Twitter, you got the first glimpse of a new product I’m testing called GO Tape, a new kinesiology tape.  I’ll be reviewing it and giving a lucky reader a roll of it in the next few weeks so be watching for that.

    GO Tape--be watching for a review and giveaway in the coming weeks.

Now let’s talk about my July goals.  Last week I told you I’d update you weekly.  As I’m typing this, I realized how redundant that could get to be in a hurry so I’ll update you at the end of the month.  If anyone has any specific questions about how I’m doing, I’ll answer them.

I hope everyone has a great week!  What fun things do you have planned for the week?  Let me know in the comments.

Happy end of 4th of July weekend, y’all!  This weekend completely flew by for me!  Was it really 3 days?  Because it only felt like one.  Guess what I did today!  I made my award-winning peanut butter pie again, this time for my mom.  She’s having her ladies over for their monthly garden club meeting tomorrow and she wanted me to make it for them.  I promise I will share it with you soon!

How was your July 4th?  I spent mine with family.  My family always gets together for a big party at someone’s house.  This year it was at my cousin’s.  One of the highlights was homemade ice cream!

Not only was it a busy weekend for me, it was a busy week on the blog, too.  Here’s what I posted, in case you missed it:

  • I shared my friend Vicky’s company, RUNway Gear and opened up my giveaway for one of her headbands in RUNway Gear and Giveaway.  By the way, there’s still time to enter.  Today is the last day so, hurry!

    One lucky ready will win this headband from RUNway Gear.

  • I posted about how I’ve been feeling like the year is slipping away in Year Half Gone or Half Remaining?
  • I shared my July Goals.
  • Finally, I gave y’all my recipe for a slush, perfect for a hot day in Independence Day Slush.

    Yummy slush!

With next week’s update, I also plan to start updating y’all on how I’m doing toward my goals.  It’s all about accountability!

Have a great week!

Happy Sunday, y’all!  It’s the first Sunday of summer and it’s a hot one here but I love it!  How are y’all spending your day?  I made my award-winning peanut butter pie for a friend to take to a party today.  I’ll share the story of why it’s award-winning one of these days but for now I’ll just leave you with a pic.
