My husband has been really into golf lately, which apparently means it’s now his mission to teach me how to play. The only problem? I’m not totally convinced he’s qualified for the job. 🤣

What do y’all think… should I trust his golf lessons or find a new coach? 😂

Then again, I probably shouldn’t be talking because I’m terrible at mini golf too. If I can’t even survive a game of putt-putt, I don’t know what chance I have on a real golf course. 😅

Tell me… is your spouse always trying to teach you their favorite hobby too, or is it just mine? ⛳️😂

Y’all… I need some advice. 😅 Has anyone ever had t Y’all… I need some advice. 😅 Has anyone ever had their pinky toenail almost completely fall off for absolutely no reason?

Mine is literally hanging on by one tiny corner (like 90% detached 🤢), and I can’t decide if I should just pull it off or leave it alone. The problem is it hurts every time I put on socks or shoes because it keeps catching and tugging. 😩

This actually happened to me years ago after wearing cowboy booties in Nashville that rubbed my pinky toes raw, and I ended up losing both pinky toenails. They eventually grew back completely normal, so I’m so confused why it’s happening again.

I haven’t stubbed my toe, I haven’t had a pedicure in over 6 weeks, and I’ve mostly been living in sandals all summer with my usual tennis shoes. So what in the world would make a toenail suddenly start falling off? 🤷🏼‍♀️

Should I just go ahead and pull it off since it’s barely attached, or leave it alone and let it come off on its own? Tell me what you would do because I’m officially accepting all the toenail advice I can get. 😂

And at this point, I guess my body has decided to rebel from the top of my head all the way down to my toenails. 🫠🤣 #toes #toenails #pinkytoe #pinkytoes #toenail

One thing people don’t talk about enough is how ch One thing people don’t talk about enough is how chronic illness doesn’t just affect the person who’s diagnosed, it changes the lives of the people who love them, too. ❤️

Living with an invisible illness can feel incredibly isolating, but having a supportive spouse has made all the difference in my journey. Through countless doctor appointments, unanswered questions, difficult days, and moments when I’ve felt like giving up, my husband has been my biggest advocate, my safe place, and my constant source of strength.

I know not everyone has that kind of support, and my heart truly goes out to anyone navigating chronic illness on their own. No one should have to carry that weight by themselves.

To every caregiver, spouse, partner, family member, or friend who continues to show up with patience, compassion, and love; you matter more than you know. Thank you for making the hard days a little easier. 🤍

If you’re living with a chronic illness, tag someone who’s been there for you, or send this to the person who’s helped carry you through your hardest days. They deserve to know how much they’re appreciated.

If you’ve been following my chronic illness journe If you’ve been following my chronic illness journey for a while, you already know how many doctors, specialists, tests, and appointments I’ve been through. Time after time, I was told I was “fine,” “everything looks normal,” or that it was “just anxiety.”

But after my appointment with @carolina_functional_neurology, I finally felt heard.

They agreed that what I’ve been experiencing is not normal. They believe I have POTS, and they also think there could be other neurological issues that need to be investigated. After years of questioning myself because of medical gaslighting, hearing a doctor validate my symptoms was something I’ll never forget.

At this point, I don’t think one Netflix documentary would be enough to cover this whole journey. 🤣

The saddest part? I know so many of you have messaged me saying you’ve experienced the exact same thing. It’s heartbreaking how common medical gaslighting has become, especially for people living with chronic illness or invisible illnesses.

So if you’re still searching for answers, this is your reminder: don’t stop advocating for yourself. Keep asking questions. Keep pushing for second opinions. Keep fighting for the care you deserve.

You know your body better than anyone else.

And if you’ve been medically gaslit too, I want you to know you’re not alone. ❤️

Decorating Your Front Porch For Fall

I have definitely enjoyed decorating my front porch this year. I never really decorated our porch in our old house, but with our new porch we have a lot of room to decorate with and I didn’t want it to go to waste! In this post, I will share all about decorating your front porch for Fall and just how easy it is to do so.

I started decorating our porches during the spring when my mom gave me some beautiful plants for my birthday. In the past, I never really had a green thumb before or cared to learn much about plants.

But, after realizing how beautiful they looked on our porch, I quickly tried to become the best plant mom I could be! And I am happy to report that all those plants are still alive today!

So when fall rolled around, I knew I had to get some beautiful pumpkins and mums to fill our front steps with!

Fall Front Porch
Here is a view of our fall front porch this year!

Pumpkins

I just went to our local farmers market to pick out some fresh pumpkins since we do not have a local pumpkin patch near by.

I went with the neutral color scheme of peachy colored ones and blueish/greenish ones.

Pumpkin Spice
This is quite possibly my favorite doormat of all time.

I did not want the traditional bright orange colored pumpkins. I felt like having that color would clash with the look I was going for.

However, if you like the traditional pumpkins more, then go for it! Whatever you like best will work just fine!

Mums

I got a few of the mums from the Farmer’s Market as well. But I mainly got most of them from Ingles! They had the best prices for them and they are so pretty!

I started with a bunch of mums on our very top step and worked my way down.

Mums and Pumpkins on Front Porch Steps
Here is one side of my porch steps with the mums and pumpkins.

I started with three in a row on the top and ended with just one. Then on the lower two steps, I just added some pumpkins to those.

My goal was to look like it was cascading down, so I made the lower step less full. I am very happy with the way it turned out.

I also stacked a few pumpkins towards the bottom of the steps to give it more height.

How To Decorate Your Front Porch For Fall
And here is the other side!

How to Style the Pumpkins and Mums

I continued to stick with the neutral pumpkin colors as well and added more colors with the mums I chose.

I was having a hard time coming up with how I wanted to style it all at first, but after looking at Pinterest for inspiration and having my sweet hubby help me, I was very satisfied with the finished product!

If you need more tips and inspiration, be sure to check out my post all about my tips and tricks for styling a fall porch too!

I will share more pictures below of how the whole porch turned out!

My husband found me this vintage ladder for free! It has become a staple piece to decorate the porch with.
I found these beautiful hanging mums from the Farmer’s Market too and I bought ones that were hardly blooming, that way they lasted me a little longer this season. As you can see here, they are finally opening up!
Indian Corn for Fall
I put the indian corn I found here in this galvanized metal tin. My plan was originally to fill it with pumpkins, but I did not have enough!
Mums and Pumpkins
Love the way stacking pumpkins look!
Hey There Pumpkin Pillow
Always need to have a seasonal pillow of course on my rocking chairs too!
Pumpkin Door Mat
I fell in love with this doormat when I saw it and I just had to have it!

I absolutely love decorating the front porch with pumpkins and mums for fall.

Mums and pumpkins just scream that the Autumn season is here and it is definitely one of my favorite seasons so I love to decorate every spot that I can for it.

Do you all normally decorate your porch for fall too? Let me know what you like to decorate your front porch with below if you do!

If you’re looking for the best cat bed for senior cats, or just want to spoil your furry best friend, I highly recommend this one.

If you’ve been following my chronic illness journe If you’ve been following my chronic illness journey for a while, you already know how many doctors, specialists, tests, and appointments I’ve been through. Time after time, I was told I was “fine,” “everything looks normal,” or that it was “just anxiety.”

But after my appointment with @carolina_functional_neurology, I finally felt heard.

They agreed that what I’ve been experiencing is not normal. They believe I have POTS, and they also think there could be other neurological issues that need to be investigated. After years of questioning myself because of medical gaslighting, hearing a doctor validate my symptoms was something I’ll never forget.

At this point, I don’t think one Netflix documentary would be enough to cover this whole journey. 🤣

The saddest part? I know so many of you have messaged me saying you’ve experienced the exact same thing. It’s heartbreaking how common medical gaslighting has become, especially for people living with chronic illness or invisible illnesses.

So if you’re still searching for answers, this is your reminder: don’t stop advocating for yourself. Keep asking questions. Keep pushing for second opinions. Keep fighting for the care you deserve.

You know your body better than anyone else.

And if you’ve been medically gaslit too, I want you to know you’re not alone. ❤️

🚨 BIG ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨 I’ve decided to start an Onl 🚨 BIG ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨

I’ve decided to start an OnlyPaws account so I can finally quit my job and become a full-time stay-at-home cat mom. 😹

I mean, who wouldn’t pay premium content prices to see adorable cat toe beans, fluffy paws, and exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of two spoiled indoor cats living their best lives? 🐾😂

The stars of this business venture, Toby and Riley, have fully consented to the arrangement (by accepting treats), and they strongly support me staying home so I can dedicate more time to serving their every need. 😜

Honestly, with content this cute, retirement might be closer than I thought. 🤣
