My Fur Baby, Wally 🐕

Let me tell you about my Fur baby, Wally.  My husband, whom I met in 2021 (a story for another day), had a beautiful chocolate Labrador.  Wally was his baby, as he had Wally when he was 5 weeks old.  I’ve seen photos and Wally was the cutest puppy.

I was always scared of dogs. When I started dating my now husband, I felt I was in a dilemma.  I didn’t want to go to his home because I knew he had a dog.  When we became serious, I told him he had to make a choice between me and his dog.  He couldn’t make a decision and asked me not to make him choose.  I could tell this dog meant a lot to him, so I asked to meet Wally.  I told him to bring Wally to my house so I can meet him in person.

Needless to say, I became obsessed with Wally.  I immediately became his dog momma!  I loved that dog so much.  People would tell my husband that I love Wally more than I did him.

I could go on and on about this special dog.  For now I just want to say…

Happy birthday in rainbow heaven to my yoga partner, breakfast buddy and protector.  If you ever had or have a dog that you are close to…then you know.

They are super loyal, lovable  and will always be by your side.  I could count on Wally to get up at 6:30am and lay at the end of the hallway every morning waiting for me.  That was our bonding time.  And when I would go into the office, he knew on those days to get up at 5:30.

There will never be another Wally.  Unique and one-of-a-kind…the best dog ever ❤️ 

Let the Challenge Begin…

My birthday is officially 90 days from today.  I have decided to do a customized 90-day challenge.  The goal is to accomplish those challenges by December 7th.

What are those challenges you are asking???

Well, let me backtrack for a moment.  Recently, I completed the 75-day soft challenge.  Well, it was really a 100-day soft challenge, as I extended it for an extra 25 days.  I enjoyed it so much that I wanted to do another challenge.  I, however, wanted to customize it to goals that I have.  I want to achieve and work towards certain things in my life.  So what better way for me to focus on it?  Challenge myself.  I noticed that when I have a challenge, I work hard to complete it.

Since my birthday is coming up in 3 months, I wanted to challenge myself to complete things I’ve either been working on or things I said I wanted to do before the end of 2025.  So here are the challenges I need to complete:

  1. Reopen my online jewelry boutique
  2. Learn to control stress
  3. Lose a specified amount (5 lbs left to my goal weight)
  4. Read a total of 15 books (just completed book #8 and started June 3rd)
  5. Get pregnant ( the most important challenge I want to achieve)
  6. Get higher paying campaigns
  7. Post a blog once a week
  8. Post on Instagram and TikTok at least 3 times a week
  9. Save a specified amount of money
  10. Journal everyday

I feel pretty confident in my quest to complete my challenges successfully.  As I previously said, let the challenge begin…

Until next time, talk to you soon 💋
