Endometriosis awareness doesn’t end when March doe Endometriosis awareness doesn’t end when March does. 💛

For me (and millions of women) this is a daily battle, not just a “month.” Chronic pain, endless doctor visits, tests, and constantly fighting just to be heard… it’s exhausting, and it’s real.

This month has been especially hard. So many appointments, so many unknowns, and the emotional toll of advocating for your own health over and over again. Women’s pain deserves to be taken seriously the first time, not after we’ve fought to prove it.

I’ll keep using my voice, no matter how small this platform may feel, to raise awareness for endometriosis, chronic illness, and the realities of women’s healthcare. Because change only happens when we keep speaking up.

April brings a new chapter for me- my surgery is finally coming, and I’m holding onto hope that relief is on the other side. 🤍

But please remember: just because Endometriosis Awareness Month is over doesn’t mean this disease disappears. It affects millions of women every single day.

Let’s keep the conversation going. Let’s keep advocating. And let’s keep fighting for better care. 💛 #endometriosis #endometriosissupport #endometriosiswarrior #endometriosisawarenessmonth #endometriosisfighter

These realistic faux hanging ferns just saved my porch decor AND my energy levels 🙌 I found them at @loweshomeimprovement and I’m officially converted, they look so real without the daily watering, mess, or stress.

As someone with limited energy, switching from real plants to low-maintenance artificial greenery has been a game changer. My porch still feels lush, cozy, and Pinterest-worthy… just without the upkeep 💚

Now I’m curious, are you team real plants 🌱 or team faux plants 🌿?!

Between regular appointments with my PCP, referrals to specialists, booking consults with surgeons, seeing multiple OB-GYNs, cardiology appointments, and all the follow-ups in between… my calendar is basically just doctor visits at this point.

Living with a chronic illness like endometriosis means constantly advocating for yourself, seeing new specialists, running tests, and hoping someone finally has answers. It’s exhausting, expensive, and honestly overwhelming sometimes.

I keep wondering… will there ever be a month where I don’t have multiple medical appointments? Or is this just the reality of living with chronic illness? 😆

Did you know yellow is the official color for Endo Did you know yellow is the official color for Endometriosis Awareness Month? 💛

Which is ironic because I honestly hate the color yellow… but I hate endometriosis even more. 🤣 So this month I’m wearing yellow nails for the cause.

And honestly, it’s a great conversation starter. If someone asks about my nails, I get to tell them about endometriosis awareness and why it matters. Because the more we talk about this disease, the more people start to understand it.

It still blows my mind that 1 in 10 women suffer from endometriosis, yet so many of us struggle for years to get diagnosed, treated, or even taken seriously. Women dealing with chronic pain deserve answers, research, treatment, and funding.

So if wearing yellow nails helps start even one conversation about endometriosis symptoms and women’s health, I’m all for it. 💛

I may be one small voice on the internet, but I’ll keep talking about endometriosis this month and every month after, because this disease affects my life every single day.

This was my second round wearing a Holter monitor, because the first time everything came back “normal.” And if you’ve been following my health journey, you know what I’m dealing with is definitely not normal.

Between the shakiness, heart episodes, and living with endometriosis, something is clearly going on. I don’t know yet if it’s POTS, endometriosis related, or something else entirely, but I’m desperate for answers at this point.

The hardest part? Being told over and over that “your labs look normal.” Meanwhile it’s affecting my job, my daily life, and my quality of life. Why do so many women have to fight to be taken seriously in healthcare?

The good news is I actually had another episode on Wednesday while wearing the monitor, so I’m really hoping it finally caught something.

Praying this round wasn’t for nothing and that I can finally get some real answers and a diagnosis soon. 💛 #holtermonitor #pots #potssyndrome #endometriosis #endometriosisawarenessmonth

Fall Home Tour 2022

I thought I better give y’all a fall home tour post, before I start tearing everything down and decorating for Christmas! Because, if you know me, then you know I love to start decorating early.

There’s just not enough time in the season to enjoy that magical glow, so I try to enjoy it as long as possible. But anyway, I wanted to let my fall home decor have a moment too. Because I really do love it as well!

All the rich, warm tones of fall makes my home just feel so cozy. And I haven’t done a fall home tour post since 2020, so I figured I’m a little overdue for one!

View into Kitchen

This post contains affiliate links. Click here to read my disclosure policy.

Fall Front Porch

Starting off the fall home tour will be my front porch! Y’all know I absolutely love to decorate with mums and pumpkins. And this year was no different!

Fall Front Porch

I won’t go into too much detail here, because I shared all my tips and tricks for decorating a fall porch last year. And nothing much has changed since that!

Side View of Fall Front Porch Steps
Pumpkins Close Up
Pumpkins on Steps

I was surprised that my ferns from the summer and plants in my vintage crocks were still thriving while I was decorating the porch for fall. So I figured I could just leave them there and let them continue to shine!

Rocking Chairs on Front Porch
Easy Pumpkin Toprairies

I also still have my easy pumpkin topiaries still on display that I made last year too. They have held up really well for a cheap little fall craft project!

Fall Vintage Market Signs
Indian Corn on Fall Porch
Close Up of DIY Fall Vintage Market Signs

Another one of my DIY projects from last year, these vintage inspired market signs, are still a staple in my outdoor fall decor too. The corn one goes perfectly with my little Indian corn in my antique box as well!

Mums and Pumpkins on Porch

Fall Living Room

Next up on the fall home tour is my living room with all the cozy fall accents! One of my favorite things in the living room is my easy fall centerpiece I have on our coffee table.

Fall Centerpiece on Coffee Table
I also love to look through Liz Marie Galvan’s Book, Cozy White Cottage Seasons, to get some seasonal decor ideas too!

I made that several years ago and still use it to this day because I just love the deep color of the amber bottles paired with the fall florals. It’s a perfect fall match!

Close Up of Fall Florals

I’ve also been using these fall floral stems in my vintage crock for a few years now too. They go perfectly in there and the good news is Amazon still carries them as well!

Fall Florals in Crock
Linking these pretty fall floral stems below:

You also may remember us installing our living room mantel last year too. And I love to be able to style it for all the different seasons now as well. Like for fall, I just placed a simple fall garland on top and love it!

Fall Mantle
I got this garland from Zulily, and I highly recommend looking there for cheaper seasonal decor!

Our little reading nooks in the living room are also all decked out for fall as well! You will probably recognize some of the old decor I’ve used before here too. I try to reuse as much as possible, but still like to add in a few things here and there.

Fall Reading Nook
Pumpkin Scroll
Linking one of my favorite floor lamps below. I like it so much, I got another one in a different color for my office!

Like the antique brass candlesticks and clock on the shelf are new this year and are from Liz Marie’s QVC line. And if you’ve been around here long enough, then you know I am obsessed with everything Liz Marie does (I was even lucky enough to meet her at Vintage Pickin’ before too!), so obviously I had to get some of her pieces!

Fall Entryway

Our fall entryway is technically in our living room too, but I figured it needed it’s own little moment here too. Especially since we did that whole entryway refresh earlier this year! I love filling my dough bowl up with pumpkins every year too!

Fall Entryway Table

It’s actually full of pumpkins that I painted myself several years ago too. I think that was one of my first DIY projects and back when I was just dipping my toe into the blogging world! We sure have came a long way since then!

Pumpkins in Dough Bowl

Fall Coffee Bar

Now, onto one of my very favorite places in my home, my coffee bar! You’ve seen it season after season before, and really I don’t keep it too much of the same. I try to add new things on it and again, keep some of the old items as well.

Fall Coffee Bar
Linking some of my coffee bar accessories below:

A new piece I added this year was the DIY Fall Cutting Board sign that I made a few months ago too. It’s the perfect little spot to display it!

Coffee Bar Fall Tiered Tray

I also have another area right across from my coffee bar where I keep all my coffee syrups. It also serves as a space to display more seasonal decor as well. Shocker, I know right?!

You can get the custom glass jars with the labels personalized too by clicking on the pictures below:

Fall Dining Room

Right next to my coffee bar area is my dining room. I kept my tablescape pretty much the same as last year’s fall tablescape. Although, I did change up the centerpiece with the DIY Mercury Glass pumpkins I made.

I also kept my dining room open shelves pretty simple with just a few fall touches here and there. Again, I used some amber bottles for some warmth and color. And some faux hops for some floral touches as well.

Fall Open Shelves

Cozy Fall Bedroom

Next up on the fall home tour is my cozy fall bedroom. I got all the pillows and throws last year from the Hearth and Hand line at Target.

I also always love to have a styled tray in the bedroom too. Although, I usually place it on the dresser and not the bed for obvious reasons. Just had to style it pretty for the photos though!

Fall Bedroom Tray
Bedroom Tray With Candle

But I always have a cozy fall candle from Antique Candle Co. burning and those cute faux maple leaves in the vase are the perfect little fall touches on the tray.

Fall Wreath on Window

I also switch out the mini wreaths on my antique 1920 windowpanes in the bedroom every season too. I typically use the traditional fall colors like pictured above and then will change it out to something with more of a pine vibe for Christmas.

Fall Guest Bedroom

Last on the fall home tour list is our guest bedroom. I always style the guest bedroom too because my brother will sometimes come over and stay a few nights with us throughout the year. So I like for the room to be seasonally appropriate and ready for that as well.

Fall Guest Bedroom Decor

My favorite piece in the guest bedroom is the vintage rocker in the corner that we got passed down to us. It has been in my husband’s side of the family for many years and I am so lucky to have it now!

Fall Guest Bedroom Corner
Fall Guest Bedroom Shelves
Fall Bedroom Antique Rocker
Linking these open shelves below, they come in several different finishes and are so fun to style for every season:

And last but not least in this room is my distressed mirror shelf that I styled for fall by simply placing a garland on top. I got the garland from Zulily, and this is the perfect place to find a variety of cheap garlands!

Fall Guest Bedroom Mirror

And remember my cute recycled wooden base with the terra cotta pots I got from The Nested Fig?! Well, I made it more seasonally appropriate by just placing a few white pumpkins on top!

Well, I hope you enjoyed this little Fall Home Tour of mine! And, you better get ready for a Christmas Home Tour coming up soon as well! I’m about to deck these halls and I can’t wait to show y’all!

    I so enjoyed your fall tour! It is hard to choose just one area or piece I loved most. I agree with you, I am a HUGE fan of Liz Marie. Her story is one I hold near and dear to my heart and is why I began following her. Pictures drew me in, but her story made me stay. Your fall shelves had me eyeing them for a closer look, I see several pieces I’d love to collect! Thank you for sharing!

Endometriosis awareness doesn’t end when March doe Endometriosis awareness doesn’t end when March does. 💛

For me (and millions of women) this is a daily battle, not just a “month.” Chronic pain, endless doctor visits, tests, and constantly fighting just to be heard… it’s exhausting, and it’s real.

This month has been especially hard. So many appointments, so many unknowns, and the emotional toll of advocating for your own health over and over again. Women’s pain deserves to be taken seriously the first time, not after we’ve fought to prove it.

I’ll keep using my voice, no matter how small this platform may feel, to raise awareness for endometriosis, chronic illness, and the realities of women’s healthcare. Because change only happens when we keep speaking up.

April brings a new chapter for me- my surgery is finally coming, and I’m holding onto hope that relief is on the other side. 🤍

But please remember: just because Endometriosis Awareness Month is over doesn’t mean this disease disappears. It affects millions of women every single day.

Let’s keep the conversation going. Let’s keep advocating. And let’s keep fighting for better care. 💛 #endometriosis #endometriosissupport #endometriosiswarrior #endometriosisawarenessmonth #endometriosisfighter

So of course I had to share these edited cat pics with y’all because they’re too funny to keep to myself 😻

These realistic faux hanging ferns just saved my porch decor AND my energy levels 🙌 I found them at @loweshomeimprovement and I’m officially converted, they look so real without the daily watering, mess, or stress.

As someone with limited energy, switching from real plants to low-maintenance artificial greenery has been a game changer. My porch still feels lush, cozy, and Pinterest-worthy… just without the upkeep 💚

Now I’m curious, are you team real plants 🌱 or team faux plants 🌿?!

POV: You’re chronically ill and your doctor list i POV: You’re chronically ill and your doctor list is longer than your friends list. 🤣

Between regular appointments with my PCP, referrals to specialists, booking consults with surgeons, seeing multiple OB-GYNs, cardiology appointments, and all the follow-ups in between… my calendar is basically just doctor visits at this point.

Living with a chronic illness like endometriosis means constantly advocating for yourself, seeing new specialists, running tests, and hoping someone finally has answers. It’s exhausting, expensive, and honestly overwhelming sometimes.

I keep wondering… will there ever be a month where I don’t have multiple medical appointments? Or is this just the reality of living with chronic illness? 😆

If you’re also navigating chronic illness, specialist appointments, and endless doctor visits, just know you’re not alone in this. 💛

Did you know yellow is the official color for Endo Did you know yellow is the official color for Endometriosis Awareness Month? 💛

Which is ironic because I honestly hate the color yellow… but I hate endometriosis even more. 🤣 So this month I’m wearing yellow nails for the cause.

And honestly, it’s a great conversation starter. If someone asks about my nails, I get to tell them about endometriosis awareness and why it matters. Because the more we talk about this disease, the more people start to understand it.

It still blows my mind that 1 in 10 women suffer from endometriosis, yet so many of us struggle for years to get diagnosed, treated, or even taken seriously. Women dealing with chronic pain deserve answers, research, treatment, and funding.

So if wearing yellow nails helps start even one conversation about endometriosis symptoms and women’s health, I’m all for it. 💛

I may be one small voice on the internet, but I’ll keep talking about endometriosis this month and every month after, because this disease affects my life every single day.

I finally got to take my Holter heart monitor off I finally got to take my Holter heart monitor off this morning… and let me tell you, I will NOT miss this thing 😅 But now I’m left with this itchy red mark as a little souvenir.

This was my second round wearing a Holter monitor, because the first time everything came back “normal.” And if you’ve been following my health journey, you know what I’m dealing with is definitely not normal.

Between the shakiness, heart episodes, and living with endometriosis, something is clearly going on. I don’t know yet if it’s POTS, endometriosis related, or something else entirely, but I’m desperate for answers at this point.

The hardest part? Being told over and over that “your labs look normal.” Meanwhile it’s affecting my job, my daily life, and my quality of life. Why do so many women have to fight to be taken seriously in healthcare?

The good news is I actually had another episode on Wednesday while wearing the monitor, so I’m really hoping it finally caught something.

Praying this round wasn’t for nothing and that I can finally get some real answers and a diagnosis soon. 💛 #holtermonitor #pots #potssyndrome #endometriosis #endometriosisawarenessmonth
