the journey so far
“Just relax” “just have fun!” “It’ll happen eventually” “you’re so young, it’ll be okay!”.
These are just some of the things that I’ve heard people say to me when I tell them that I am struggling with infertility.
So for those of you that don’t know much about infertility, here’s a quick definition;
In general, infertility is defined as not being able to get pregnant (conceive) after one year…
Amazon has become a HUGE part of how we shop now-a-days. I know for me, I’ve been on Amazon long before this pandemic started. Therefore, I have ordered plenty of things from them, and I wanted to share some of my favourites! You can click on the title of each item to bring you to the links on Amazon! (Not sponsored or anything, I just genuinely love these products).

I have been obsessed with TikTok lately, and I’ve been seeing this video where people “strip their laundry”. Basically what it is is that they take whatever fabric item they want (i.e: bedsheets, shirts, pillowcases, towels, etc.), and soak it in a water-laundry-detergent-borax mixture.
I wanted to try this out on my bedding. I really didn’t think that it was that dirty because I do regularly…
I am seriously obsessed with the label maker I got last year, I used it on everything! By the tittle you probably know what I’ve organized this time. Honestly the before isn’t even that bad (I did put the labels on a while ago so I don’t have a TRUE before picture.
Having a side by side fridge-freezer means that you have less space to put fridge things. I am not saying that it’s totally small…
I have been looking for a white dresser with black handles for a long time. There’s one at IKEA that I’ve wanted for a long time, but I couldn’t justify paying $300.00+ for a dresser. I decided that I might as well check out Kijiji/FB marketplace to see what I could find.
I found this dresser on FB Marketplace and although it wasn’t white, I knew I could make it work. I was specifically…
Recently I posted a picture on Instagram holding one of my new plants and I asked if I should write a blog post and a couple people said yes, so here we are! I have a few different plants in my house so I thought it would be cool to write a post now so in a few years I could look back and see if I still have the same plants!
First up is my spider plant, I think this is the one that I’ve had…
We all know those people. The people that seem to always find something wrong with a situation / cannot find light in anything. It can sometimes be overwhelming to be around those types of people (especially in the work place). It can also be overwhelming to constantly be thinking negatively. Today I’ve decided to share a couple of ways to deal with negativity.
Realizing they may have something…
Pantry organization done easy!
In light of the recent situation that is going on in the world, I seem to have a lot of time to do things at home. So, to make myself feel productive, I decided to do an overhaul of my pantry and completely reorganize it!
Before pictureHere is the before picture. As you can see, I already tried to organize the right half with labels, buuuttt life happens and everything is kind of…
I had written a post a few months back about how it’s okay to change paths, and really, it is. I was at the point where I had such a negative experience with nursing school that I didn’t want to continue. I wanted to do something that made me feel excited. Heck, I still feel that way! I was convinced that I wasn’t going to finish school and graduate.
However, come June when all of my friends…
I was soooo excited to create this DIY for the wedding. I saw it on Pinterest and I was determined to make it. Here was my inspiration:
From:https://nouba.com.au/diy-country-wedding-new-zealandI thought that this little set up was just the cutest, so off to the thrift store I went!
My DIY haul (for this DIY though I only used the flower picture). The others were for other DIYS (to…
How To Make Beautiful Wedding Decor Out Of Dollar Store Letters
From the moment I got engaged, I knew that I wanted to make the bulk of my decor. There is something so special about having pieces that you made at your own wedding. I also enjoy doing crafts so it was also a lot of fun!
I knew for our head table that I wanted Mr & Mrs letters on them. I looked around on Kijiji and Facebook market and everything seemed so overprices and not what I was looking…
Brady and I went for our honeymoon this part January and it was so amazing. We decided to go to Mexico for two weeks because a) it was our honeymoon and b) it was Brady’s first ever vacation!!
We stayed at the Bluebay Grand Esmeralda and I have nothing but good things to say about it. They had amazing food, staff, and rooms. The only thing that wasn’t the greatest was the water at the beach…
Hello Friends!! I haven’t written a post in SO long (I got really busy with wedding stuff, then school and work etc.), BUT I am back! I wanted to make this post about my makeover to my basement spare room, which I did all the way back in July.
As you can see here, she was pretty bare. Concrete floors, no ceiling, old panelled walls (it gave off a really dungeon/creepy vibe). I knew that I…
Hey folks! Long time no see!! This summer has been extremely busy and has just flown by. I haven’t had much time to myself because as you may (or may not) know, I got married!! Planning for this day took up so much of my time, but I wouldn’t trade that for the world.
I wanted to share some of the pictures from the day and how the day went in general. A lot of the decor was a DIY, so I’m…
