Top Posts ~ 2022
Good Morning Everyone,
I tried to get some rest this weekend. I was pretty much unsuccessful. I need to get back on a better sleep schedule this week. My body is not reacting well to not having enough rest. My body tends to get really “tight” when it is tired, and it shows on the scale. Not fun! Other than that, it was a very productive weekend. I got a lot of purging done! I am so excited! I am moving things and packing things up in my stepson’s room. I’ll be glad to have it completely maybe sometime this year! Now on to the top blog posts for 2022.
Choosing the “top posts” of the year is always so hard. I do love going back and looking to see what inspired me. What new things did I try, purchases, places that I visited. In the end I always pull back and realize how blessed I really am! Thank you, Lord, for everything!
Now let’s see what my favorites were in 2022!
In January…
So many great finds this month. I still love that teapot and teacups!
I loved learning about this quote from Maya Angelou. I still have it saved in my phone!
February ~ 2022
I was so glad that I took a day to go and have lunch here. I may need to schedule this again.
I still think about this from time to time. Although I did just get to travel alone to San Diego without my daughter and husband. There is something that renews the spirit when you travel alone. It makes you focus on you and what you actually like.
March ~ 2022
The Grandmilliennial Style of Ms. Rhimes
Still cannot get over this fabulous apartment of Shonda Rhimes!

April ~ 2022
This was the home tour that got me started with the Guild. This moment will always have a special place in my heart.
I will be honest. Most of my blog posts in April I loved! Here they are!
May ~ 2022
This blog post came just in time. I needed to hear why I am on the course that I am on and not to get into the gutter with those who are not worth it.
This was the same month where I joined the Guild and the Sarah Flint Family!
June ~ 2022
A Chicago Trip ~ Sarah Flint BA Meeting
I had not been to Chicago in over 10 years! It was a nice short trip, and I made more friends!
So many fun things happened in the month of June. I took a visit to the Cake Bake Shop, had a small backyard oasis, and went to my first peony festival!
July ~ 2022
Touring the Magnificent Breakers
I simply LOVED Rhode Island. Mr. Shockley and I are hoping to visit again soon.
July was another great month of wonderful things. You may read all of the posts here.
August ~ 2022
Lady of the House~ What is that for You?
In August I shared my trip to the Ralph Lauren Store in Manhattan and more mansion tours!
September ~ 2022
My First Spa Visit ~ Woodhouse Spa
I loved this! I actually go once a month now for a pedicure and will be getting my first facial next week! I will be sure to share the experience.
My First Guild Luncheon ~Woodstock Country Club
This was another fun event! I love all of these new experiences that I had in 2022. They made the year more fulfilling!
Plans for my 40th was another great post as well as my September Favorites. I always enjoy sharing those.
October ~ 2022
During this month I went to my first concert! Going to see Diana Krall is an experience that I will never forget. It was wonderful.
Of course, this month would not be complete without me sharing my 40th birthday celebration! I still can’t believe that I am 40. Honestly it sounds good saying it.
November ~ 2022
This is the month where I shared my visit to Nashville, Tennessee. We did not get to stay long but seeing the Sarah Flint store and having dinner at Restoration Hardware were great introductions to the city!
And this year’s Thanksgiving celebration was simple and quiet.
December ~ 2022
My Christmas Table setting was fun to create this year. My December favorites shared more of my adventures for this month and being in my first fashion show was a great experience! It turned out better than I thought it would.
2022 was a wonderful year for me and my family! I am not sure what’s in store for us this year, but I am always praying that the Lord is with us and that everything we do, and plan is according to his will. Life has its ups and downs but trying to remain grateful is always at the center of my heart. Thank you for reading!
