The Weekly R.E.P.O.R.T: Volume 1

Hey Friends, happy Friday. We are 10 day into the new year and Frankly its a shit show. One half of the country is frozen, the other on fire. We’ve got an insurrectionist and felon on his way to the White House and it is supposed to snow today in Atlanta.

Yes, hell has frozen over.

But you know what? We are going to find the joy in the small things this year despite what is going on around us. We are going to take care of ourselves when the world( or the country) seems like it’s going crazy.

That is all.

So this year, I’m starting a new series on the blog where every Friday, im going to try to come on here and give a weekly R.E.P.O.R.T. of things that I’m reading, eating, playing, obsessing, recommending and treating.

R. Reading

I am currently reading …way too many books friends. This week, I am reading the second section of Flyy Girl for the Pouring Over Books Book Club( you can still join us)

BUUUUT. me being me, since its a snow day, I am getting ready to start Death of the Author by Nnedi Okorafor. It comes out on Tuesday.

E.Eating

So I got a new food scale. Because I’m serious about getting in that protein. And let me tell you….all the food labels are WRONG. And that my friends, is an issue! Because How am I supposed to get in my protein and count my macros accurately when the food labels are either overestimating or underestimating????? I weighted everything that went in my mouth yesteray. Food that normally gets me about 1800 calories and 120 grams of protein got me 1469 calories and 98 grams of protein when everything was weighed out.

You see why I’m salty. I’ll keep you updated.

P. Playing

At being a blogger again. Ok, not playing, but listen. We don’t own any of these social media platforms. I own this domain. I own this blog. I own my newsletter list.

That’s it.

So since I pay for and own these things, this is where my energy is going back to. oh and YouTube. Go ahead and follow me over there so you can get this content…when it starts dropping. S

O. Obsessed

I am obsessed with this oil from Taraji P. Henson’s Collection.

I use it right after I shower and I GOT THAT GLOW ( points to you if you get that reference)

R. Recommending

This clicker for my kindle. It changes the pages for you. And because sometimes I want to be super duper lazy, I just ordered this so I don’t have to hold my kindle ether. Im thinking PEAK SELF CARE times friends.

T Treat

I treated myself to flowers last week from Trader Joes and they are still going strong. I arranged them myself and while I was doing it, it was so relaxing that i went ahead and added Take a Flower Arranging class to my 2025 Bingo Card.

Ok that’s it. I can’t wait to come back next week and give my “Report”!
