When I saw this adorable shirt from Pink Lily, I HAD to have it immediately—especially because it pairs perfectly with my “he’s golfing” hat. ⛳️😂

At this point, I might as well make being a golf wife my entire personality, right?! 🤣

When I spotted these plain little white ceramic gh When I spotted these plain little white ceramic ghosts at the Target Dollar Spot, I knew they had SO much potential! Instead of leaving them plain, I gave them a quick makeover and turned them into the cutest antiqued gold Halloween decor that looks way more expensive than it actually is! 🙌

Here’s how I did it:

👻 First, I sprayed the ceramic ghosts with black spray paint.
✨ Then I lightly layered metallic gold spray paint over the top. I didn’t want them super shiny—I was going for that aged, antique gold pottery look.
🖤 Finally, I used a little black acrylic paint to make their eyes stand out more.

And that’s it! Such an easy DIY Halloween decor makeover, and I think they turned out ADORABLE! 🥹

I love finding inexpensive Target Dollar Spot finds and giving them a high-end look with a little DIY magic.

Would you believe these started as plain white ghosts from Target?! 👻

I’m just THAT introverted. 🤣 My social battery has a daily limit, and sometimes I’ve already hit my maximum number of conversations before I even get to where I’m going. 😅

No offense… I just need to ride this elevator in peace and silence 🤣

Please tell me I’m not the only introvert who does this?! 👀

It’s officially been ONE FULL YEAR since my health It’s officially been ONE FULL YEAR since my health started spiraling. 💔

A year ago today, I was at work when my heart rate suddenly spiked so high that I became extremely dizzy and shaky and genuinely thought I was going to pass out. I went to the ER afterward just to be safe, and of course… everything looked “normal.” My EKG was normal. They could see that my heart rate had spiked, but they couldn’t tell me why.

Little did I know that one scary episode would turn into a daily battle with unexplained symptoms. Fast forward one year and I’m dealing with even worse symptoms, including frequent heart rate spikes, dizziness, shakiness/tremors, fatigue, and so much more. And the hardest part? I STILL DON’T HAVE ANSWERS.

I can’t even work anymore. I’ve spent months waiting for appointments, getting test after test, waiting for results, and hoping that this will finally be the thing that explains what’s happening… only to end up with more questions.

And honestly? I feel crazy sometimes. Not because I think this is all in my head, but because it’s incredibly hard to keep telling people how badly you feel when test after test doesn’t give you an answer. 😭

It’s been a really rough week emotionally, and I’m having a hard time dealing with all of this. I feel like I’m constantly taking one step forward and two steps back. How long am I going to have to wait before I finally have answers? How much longer until I can start feeling like myself and actually live my life again?

I’m so tired of waiting. I’m tired of being passed from appointment to appointment. I’m tired of having no real help in the meantime. And I’m tired of feeling like I have to fight so hard just to be heard. 💔 I’m trying so hard to let go, trust God, and believe that there’s a reason for all of this… but y’all, IS IT HARD. 😢

I’m praying that after this past year, I’m finally getting closer to some answers. Until then, I’m just taking it one day at a time. If you’re also living with unexplained symptoms, chronic illness, POTS symptoms, tremors, dizziness, heart rate spikes, or a long diagnostic journey, please know you’re not alone. ❤️Here’s to hoping year two looks very different from year one!

Fall decorating is officially underway over here, but apparently Christmas wanted one last cameo. 🎄😂

Easy Cheesy Chicken Enchilada Soup

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

It’s been awhile since I shared one of my favorite easy dinner ideas with you all so I figured now would be the perfect time to share again! I absolutely LOVE Mad Dash Mixes and if you haven’t heard of them before, you are definitely missing out!

They make cooking dinner so easy and so simple! I love to keep my pantry stock full of these mixes. They are also super cheap and affordable and you can even use my code “Charity10” when you order and save 10% off your entire order! And if you want to know just how easy and simple it is, then keep on reading for the full recipe!

Mad Dash Mixes
So easy and so tasty!

So with just a handful of other ingredients besides the soup mix, you can create a tasty and delicious dinner with minimal cleanup and prep time.

Mad Dash Mixes basically does all the work for you so that you can throw together a quick weeknight meal and still feel like you just made a soup that has been simmering on the stove all day long!

But in reality it just took you five easy steps to prepare! And the best part is, they don’t just make soup mixes! They make dips, desserts, meat seasonings and so much more! You can see everything they offer here.

Cheesy Chicken Enchilada Soup
Here is what the packet of Cheesy Chicken Enchilada Soup looks like. Be sure to use code “Charity10” for 10% off!

Ingredients For Easy Cheesy Chicken Enchilada Soup:

  • 1 package of Mad Dash Cheesy Enchilada Soup Mix
  • 1 15 oz can of tomato sauce
  • 1 cup cold water
  • 4 cups whole milk (I just used 1% because that was all I had and it worked just fine for me!)
  • Canned or rotisserie chicken (I just cooked and shredded some chicken breasts I had on hand too)
  • 1 cup of Mexican blend shredded cheese
  • 1 15 oz can of corn (optional)
  • 1 15 oz can of black beans (optional)
  • Tortilla chips for topping (optional)
Cheesy Chicken Enchilada Soup Ingredients
This is literally all you need to make a tasty meal!

Directions:

  1. Combine your mix with 1 15 oz can of tomato sauce, 1 cup of cold water, 4 cups of whole milk, and chicken. Also, add in your corn and black beans here if you want to use them as well. I did, and I think it was a delicious touch and made the soup more filling!
  2. Bring the ingredients up to a boil.
  3. Reduce heat to low and let simmer for 15 minutes.
  4. Then, add 1 cup of Mexican Blend shredded cheese and stir until melted.
  5. Serve and enjoy!
Combine all Ingredients
Combine all the ingredients (except the cheese).
Bring up to a boil
Bring up to a boil and let simmer for 15 minutes.
Add in Mexican Blend shredded cheese
Add in the cheese.
Stir until cheese is melted
Stir until the cheese is melted.

You can also customize this soup with your favorite toppings as well. I added some crushed up tortilla chips and a little bit of extra cheese to mine and it was super delicious.

But, you could even add some avocado or sour cream if you like. I love how the mix is just your base and you can be as creative as you want to be when fixing this meal.

I really can’t say enough great things about Mad Dash Mixes so I highly recommend that you try them out if you are looking for quick and easy dinner ideas.

Plus, we got six servings out of this one very easy to prepare meal! You really can’t beat that.

If you want to read some of my other reviews from this company too, then check out my posts about the Cranberry Pasta Salad and the Tomato Basil Soup I made from them as well.

Here she is topped with cheesy goodness and tortilla chips- yum!

Have you ever heard of Mad Dash Mixes before? And if so, what is your favorite mix from them? I have too many to choose just one! If you try it out, let me know what you think! I would love to hear your thoughts as well!

If you’re part of the Abandoned Golf Wives Social If you’re part of the Abandoned Golf Wives Social Club, come join me! 😜 Because if he’s going to spend every weekend on the golf course, I’m at least going to have a cute outfit about it. 😂

When I saw this adorable shirt from Pink Lily, I HAD to have it immediately—especially because it pairs perfectly with my “he’s golfing” hat. ⛳️😂

At this point, I might as well make being a golf wife my entire personality, right?! 🤣

Tag your fellow golf wives who totally get it! 👇🏼

When I spotted these plain little white ceramic gh When I spotted these plain little white ceramic ghosts at the Target Dollar Spot, I knew they had SO much potential! Instead of leaving them plain, I gave them a quick makeover and turned them into the cutest antiqued gold Halloween decor that looks way more expensive than it actually is! 🙌

Here’s how I did it:

👻 First, I sprayed the ceramic ghosts with black spray paint.
✨ Then I lightly layered metallic gold spray paint over the top. I didn’t want them super shiny—I was going for that aged, antique gold pottery look.
🖤 Finally, I used a little black acrylic paint to make their eyes stand out more.

And that’s it! Such an easy DIY Halloween decor makeover, and I think they turned out ADORABLE! 🥹

I love finding inexpensive Target Dollar Spot finds and giving them a high-end look with a little DIY magic.

Would you believe these started as plain white ghosts from Target?! 👻

I’m just THAT introverted. 🤣 My social battery has a daily limit, and sometimes I’ve already hit my maximum number of conversations before I even get to where I’m going. 😅

No offense… I just need to ride this elevator in peace and silence 🤣

Please tell me I’m not the only introvert who does this?! 👀

It’s officially been ONE FULL YEAR since my health It’s officially been ONE FULL YEAR since my health started spiraling. 💔

A year ago today, I was at work when my heart rate suddenly spiked so high that I became extremely dizzy and shaky and genuinely thought I was going to pass out. I went to the ER afterward just to be safe, and of course… everything looked “normal.” My EKG was normal. They could see that my heart rate had spiked, but they couldn’t tell me why.

Little did I know that one scary episode would turn into a daily battle with unexplained symptoms. Fast forward one year and I’m dealing with even worse symptoms, including frequent heart rate spikes, dizziness, shakiness/tremors, fatigue, and so much more. And the hardest part? I STILL DON’T HAVE ANSWERS.

I can’t even work anymore. I’ve spent months waiting for appointments, getting test after test, waiting for results, and hoping that this will finally be the thing that explains what’s happening… only to end up with more questions.

And honestly? I feel crazy sometimes. Not because I think this is all in my head, but because it’s incredibly hard to keep telling people how badly you feel when test after test doesn’t give you an answer. 😭

It’s been a really rough week emotionally, and I’m having a hard time dealing with all of this. I feel like I’m constantly taking one step forward and two steps back. How long am I going to have to wait before I finally have answers? How much longer until I can start feeling like myself and actually live my life again?

I’m so tired of waiting. I’m tired of being passed from appointment to appointment. I’m tired of having no real help in the meantime. And I’m tired of feeling like I have to fight so hard just to be heard. 💔 I’m trying so hard to let go, trust God, and believe that there’s a reason for all of this… but y’all, IS IT HARD. 😢

I’m praying that after this past year, I’m finally getting closer to some answers. Until then, I’m just taking it one day at a time. If you’re also living with unexplained symptoms, chronic illness, POTS symptoms, tremors, dizziness, heart rate spikes, or a long diagnostic journey, please know you’re not alone. ❤️Here’s to hoping year two looks very different from year one!

🐚 Seashells
🤍 A small canvas
🔥 Hot glue
🎨 White spray paint
🪵 Optional wood trim for a frame

I love that you can customize this with shells from your favorite beach trip, making it such a sweet way to preserve those vacation memories. And the neutral white + wood combination makes it work with almost any home decor style!

You could even make a whole gallery wall with shells from different beaches you’ve visited! 🥹🌊

Save this DIY for your next beach vacation! And if you have a stash of seashells at home, this is your sign to finally DO something with them. 😂🐚

Fall decorating is officially underway over here, but apparently Christmas wanted one last cameo. 🎄😂

Y’all, I’m asking for some extra prayers today. ❤️ Y’all, I’m asking for some extra prayers today. ❤️ Today is finally MRI day. They’re checking my brain and my cervical and lumbar spine, and I’m praying this is one step closer to finally getting some answers about what’s been going on with me.

At this point, they’re looking into possibilities like Chiari malformation, MS, or something else entirely. And honestly… I have no idea what these MRIs are going to show.

I think one of the scariest parts is the possibility that they could come back “normal” and I’ll STILL have no answers. Because when you’ve been dealing with symptoms for so long, you almost start questioning yourself and wondering, “Am I actually crazy?” 😜

I obviously don’t want them to find anything serious, but at the same time, I NEED them to find something that can explain why I’ve been feeling the way I have. If you’ve ever been stuck in that horrible limbo of “I know something is wrong, but I don’t know what”, you know exactly what I mean.

So today I’m praying for clear answers, good news, and hopefully a diagnosis and treatment plan that can finally help me move forward. 🙏🏼 And I’m REALLY hoping I don’t have to wait forever for those MRI results either because the waiting is absolutely brutal.

It’s been such a stressful and exhausting journey, and I’m just ready to get this part OVER WITH. 😭

If you’re the praying kind, I’d appreciate one today. ❤️ And if you’ve been following along through all of this, thank you for being here. It means more than you know.

Now excuse me while I romanticize my fall coffee station and pretend everything is fine. 😂☕️🍁

Hey @mutualofomaha I genuinely want to know how yo Hey @mutualofomaha I genuinely want to know how you think I can safely work as a dental hygienist with extremely noticeable hand tremors and shaking happening all the time.

How can my short-term disability claim be denied while saying I’m still capable of doing a job that requires me to use extremely sharp dental instruments underneath people’s gums every single day?

If I were your dental hygienist, would you feel comfortable trusting me to clean YOUR teeth while my hands are shaking like this? Because I don’t.

I’m not trying to get out of working. I’m trying to protect my patients and myself while I figure out what is happening to my body.

I’ve spent over 10 years working as a dental hygienist, and right now I physically struggle to hold my instruments and perform my job safely because of these tremors. I still don’t have answers or a diagnosis, and I’ve been waiting weeks for a brain MRI to hopefully help determine what’s going on.

But in the meantime, I’m expected to just go to work and continue using sharp instruments in people’s mouths like nothing is wrong?

This is so incredibly frustrating. I want to work. I WANT to be able to work. But I also want to be able to do my job safely and responsibly.

This is what happens when the healthcare system and disability insurance system fail people who are genuinely struggling to work.

If you’ve ever dealt with a denied short-term disability claim, disability insurance, chronic illness, unexplained symptoms, tremors, or being told you’re “fine” when you know something is wrong, I’d love to hear your experience. ❤️

POV: Your cat gets 14 hours of sleep a day but YOU POV: Your cat gets 14 hours of sleep a day but YOU’RE the one who’s exhausted. 😹😂

I just wish I could sleep as peacefully as Toby does for ONE night. Must be nice to have a life where your only responsibilities are deciding when it’s time for your next nap or when you’d like a little snack. 😴🐾

What a life that must be… I’m sure it’s absolutely EXHAUSTING. 🤣

And naturally, he has to get his beauty rest after stepping directly on my face at 3 AM to wake me up. Because apparently my sleep schedule is interfering with his. 😂

Cat life really is something else. 😹🐈‍⬛

PSA: If you want the best faux fall mums, don’t wa PSA: If you want the best faux fall mums, don’t wait… they sell out every single year! 🍂

I know it feels a little early to be thinking about fall decor, but trust me on this one! These realistic faux mums are one of my favorite outdoor fall decorating finds, and they always disappear fast.

Last year I finally swapped my real mums for faux mums, and I haven’t looked back! 🤎 I could never figure out how to keep real mums alive. Too much water? Not enough? Either way, mine never seemed to last more than a few weeks. 😅

Now I can decorate my front porch for fall with beautiful artificial mums that look incredibly real, save money in the long run, and I get to reuse them every single autumn. It’s honestly one of the best fall decor investments I’ve made!

So tell me… 🍁 Are you Team Real Mums or Team Faux Mums? I’d love to know which you prefer (and if you’ve actually mastered keeping real mums alive, please share your secrets! 😂)
