CPT Time

-
Growing up it wasn't outside the norm to be late for social events. It would be further from the truth to say it was intentionally done to be fashionably late for a grand entrance. I can admit it was due to the mismanagement of time. The perfect recipe for being tardy is a late start getting ready. Speaking for myself, a late start either happens when I want extra sleep or when I randomly start multitasking. Before I knew it I'd look up at the clock and my “get ready time” would have shrunk! We all know when your getting ready every minute counts.

I work in the healthcare field so I know that it is recommend to arrive 15 mins prior to your appointment to fill out necessary paperwork. In some cases when you're waiting for your appointment and the office is running behind because someone showed up exactly on time or late. We call this the tumble effect. I'm personally not a fan because of this before lunch because it shortens my break😑

No shade, we all have that one friend is always late. I have been guilty of giving false start times to add cushion to their tardiness lol. Friend, if your reading this, I love you lol. The problem is eventually if give a false bumper time more than once it will back fire and they will assume they have more time every time.

What I started to be more cognizant of being on time I started using navigation apps to tell me how long is takes to get there with tack on an extra 15 minutes. These apps were not around back then. I can at least say I’m no longer the one who arrives last. To be fair, I only have myself and my fur baby to get ready. For the mom’s out there give yourself some grace. At the end of the day we are all doing our best!

See you on time for the next event! =)

The staff was professional and well experienced! I flew solo otherwise I'd still  be waiting for a partner LOL.

Smash Avenue Foxwoods   $$$ Ledyard, Ct Score: 8/10 Nothing better than a little demolition to destress! I was sweating under the jacket so dress lightly when you go.

Jelly Jar Centennial Milestone

-
Image
Growing up I've always loved the segment of the  Today Show  that highlighted 100th birthday milestones. Each centennial's picture was placed on a Smuckers Jelly Jar and Al Roker would read their hobbies and current locations. Belive it or not this was the motivational push that inspired me to start a wellness conscious lifestyle. For some, this might sound far fetched however my grandmother was 102 years old and her sister was 106 before they became heavenly  ancestors. Although genetic longevity is a good start I understand maintaining a healthy lifestyle is a must. Only appropriate to insert a random southern saying...Lord willing and the creek don't rise. If I'm honest I've never gotten an explanation on the creek rising part. Tell me in the comment if you know LOL Okay so your probably wondering what my plan is.  Five years ago I became a Flexitarian  and yes it's a real word LOL. I made the choice to minimize meat and dairy products. As we all

Viral TikTok Filter Stirs Up Mixed Reactions!!

What's the fuss? The first Tiktok filter is called, Teenage, which shows a split screen of a “younger” version of you and what you currently look like today. Apparently it has been a trigger for some app users especially for those who had difficult teenage years. Initially I thought the reactions were because they were distraught about how they've aged. Then I stumbled across a reaction of a crying lady who saw the troubled teenage version of herself. The other TikTok filter is called, Bold Glamour. This filter includes a full coverage makeup that includes lashes, highlights, deep contouring and for some people it chisels your jawline. The complaint is how the masculine jaw alteration makes them feel self conscious about the results.  I’m sure there will be more social media filters to enjoy and scrutinize. I can attest they definitely keep things interesting! One could only hope that those who were struggling with the past see this as a gateway to professional counseling.  -Ni
