Monday Motivational

*Photo Credit: Ourmindfullife.com as seen on Pinterest* Oh Monday!!! (and every day actually, especially during Covid) motivation is sure needed. In the Monday reminders up above, the list reminds you of several things, the first is that no matter what it is that you need to tackle today...1. you CAN do it! This is a mindset that is sometimes hard to maintain; but having a good mindset will set the tone for the whole entire week. Know that our goals are sometimes excruciatingly hard to maintain and in that case, 2. You are ALLOWED to have a break. Overwhelmed will only create the feelings of failure and it will be difficult to get to the next level, or goal so by all means take a break. This could mean just taking a walk for a half hour or leaving it until the next day. 3. You do not have to please everyone. Which also translates into you have ONLY yourself to please. Period. Try to not get trapped into trying to please everyone around you. You cannot possibly be everywhere or do everything. Try organizing schedules or saying NO to things. This will help you concentrate on only the things that are important to you.
4. Be STRONGER than your excuses. This simply means that we could all come up with an excuse to put off something, but making up excuses is an untruth and most likely very lame. So if we can resist making excuses to begin with, we may not have to face our excuse vs. the item that needs to be accomplished.

Hopefully if you have the Monday blahs you can reorganize and get back into a great week with a killer attitude and a list of accomplishments that started on your Monday!

Dimethicone: Chemical Gets A Bad Rap

Image
What is dimethicone? Why does it get such a bad rap?  It is primarily because it is a commonly used product and an additive, and secondarily it is a man-made silicone polymer and it’s always listed alongside things like phthalates and triclosan. It is a chemical. Dimethicone is in a lot of cosmetics and in products given to you by a certified dermatologist and even in items for babies. Chemistry Photo credit: Pinterest Dimethicone is normally only used topically and found in the cream type form. Dimethicone works because it forms a barrier for and against moisture by doing one of two things, trapping it on the skin or trapping it away from the skin. It fills pores and smooths the look of the skin may fill in wrinkles and fine lines on the face, and it also provides an emollient that will sooth skin to fight the effects of sunburn and diaper rash.

Deadliest Record-Breaking Cold Weather Is Dangerous

Photo Credit: Medicentres.com Today's post is in response to the dangerous cold and record-breaking weather that is upon approximately 110 million people! I am currently one of those people in the path of this polar vortex weather, and I am not happy. Midwesterners are tough, rugged and live through a lot of weather extremes, however, what is predicted to come for the next two days is just dangerous. A little less than half of the North American continent has an extreme weather forecast right now and in the next week or so. My area tomorrow is predicted to be in the -50 (negative temps) to possible -60's !. The sub-zero temps are here already, but tonight and tomorrow will be excruciating! A meteorologist at the Weather Prediction Center is passing along information right now telling the American public the exposed skin in that kind of extreme will take only a matter of seconds to frostbite and cause hypothermia. According to the Mayo Clinic   (see  their defini

Magnolias In My Kitchen Very Simple Flower Centerpiece

Image
It's a very cold January day and not one glimpse of the sun is to be had. The ground is covered in snow and now there's even freezing drizzle/rain to add into making this a long winter's day. There's only one thing you can do is to bring warmth in, by way of flowers. I have these two magnolia stems sitting right near me, One has three blooms on it and one has two. They feel bright and remind me of summer. Those warm days where the car windows are down and the Grateful Dead are playing Sugar Magnolia on the radio. And the only thing you can do is wave your arms out to feel the breeze while you're singing the song! A lovely flower centerpiece will liven, brighten and warm my room. So I gathered a  few things: the two magnolia stems Some dried green moss, that I use often, it truly makes me think of spring and summer with its very vibrant green and even brown sticks!  2 very large bell-shaped dimpled glass containers, graduated in size the large
