Y’all I am pooped! Still recovering from the market on Saturday, which was so much fun!
.
.
Just completed my Zumba class. Any other Zumba lovers here? A coworker took me with her once last Summer and I’ve been hooked ever since! I take 3 classes a week via Zoom. I can’t wait until we’re able to have classes in person.
.
.
I may be a bit pooped now, but in about 30 minutes I’ll have this crazy burst of energy and as E says, I’ll be running around like the Energizer bunny!
.
.
I’m so thankful for these workouts. They are great stress relievers and help me stay in shape. I mean if I’m going to workout, I’d rather be dancing. Wouldn’t you?
.
.
Hope your week is off to a fabulous start. How was your day today?

Ever have those nights full of crazy dreams? That was me last night. The last one was me waking up to Minions pouring cold water on my face. 🙄 Yep. Weird!
.
.
I decided that must mean I need to go ahead and get up and have a cup of coffee on the porch. Well, sort of coffee. A fuse blew in the coffee maker so we’re waiting for it to arrive. Thank God for small favors because at least the espresso side of the machine still works!
.
.
It’s going to be a full day today. Later this morning I’ll be headed out to a Sip and Shop where I’ll be a vendor selling the items I make over at @backtothesouthbling.
.
.
If you are in the Raleigh-Durham area, I’ll be at @viciousfishesbrewery in Angier from 11:30-4:30.

What are you up to today?

So before I share this year’s Fall decor, I thought we could take a little walk down memory lane of My Fall decor over the past few years.

This is the dining room from last year!

My coffee pot decided to play a cruel joke on me this morning. I tried to make a pot of coffee this morning and it said, “It’s Friday. I decided to start the weekend early!”

Me: 😳

But, never fear because it gave me an excuse to hop in my car and go get my dirty chai tea latte! Yeah, no PSL for me.

I got to have my fave morning drink so I’m ready to say hi and introduce myself to the new friends I have here!

Since September rolled in, I’ve been doing my yoga on the back porch. It’s not cool, but being outside that early and seeing the sun start to rise is so peaceful.
.
.
There’s nothing or no one out and about except me, the squirrels, some, birds, and frogs.
.
.
I’ve never been one of those people who can roll out of the bed and just go. I like to take my time and get my thoughts together so that I can focus and do all that I need to do for the day.
.
.
I wake up 2 hours before I have to start work so that I can pray, get my workout in, and just take my time and be. Those 2 hours allow me to recharge and I’m thankful I know that about myself and allow myself that time each morning.
.
.
The rare mornings that I don’t take this time, those days seem a bit off and so I make sure to get my 2 hours in!
.
.
What does your morning routine look like?

Today I took yet another trip to @carolinapottery for more Fall decor.
.
.
I can’t believe with all I have, I STILL ran out of decor. How is that even possible??🤷🏾‍♀️
.
.
This is the latest I’ve turned the house over to Fall as long as we’ve lived here. I think a part of me is just taking it slow with all that’s going on. Or, maybe I’m saving my energy for Christmas since I’m doing the ENTIRE house for the first time this year. 😳
.
.
Usually I have the house completely in Fall by now, but I haven’t finished the porch yet. I’ve decided to give myself some grace and just take it a little at a time.
.
.
Sharing the front door today. I love the vibrant colors!
.
.
What about you? Is all of your Fall decor up?

Last look at the porch, y’all! I’m going in for Fall decorating!
.
.
Do you multi task while you’re working on your home decor? I’m famous for styling AND cooking dinner or styling AND washing clothes. Today it’s styling the front porch AND coloring my roots. 😂
.
.
I mean since the color has to sit, I might as well put that time to good use, right?

So Saturday I went to one of my favorite stores @carolinapottery to get a few things to supplement the already many storage crates of Fall decor I have.

But as I always say, you can never have too much Fall decor. In fact, can you really ever have too much decor no matter the season? I think not, my friends! 😂

Having a large dining table (9+feet), I’ve yet to find a table runner that both fits my table AND that I like. Do you have that problem?

Well, I decided there was an easier way to get what I wanted! In this video, you can see my quick and easy DIY table runner trick.
