It looks like it’s going to be a beautiful (and VERY hot 🥵) Fourth of July, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. This year we’re keeping things simple with a low-key Independence Day celebration at home, and honestly… it’s exactly what we needed.

We’ll be spending the day relaxing by the pool before my hubby fires up the smoker for his famous ribeyes. Nothing beats a classic 4th of July cookout with good food, sunshine, and the people you love. 🇺🇸🥩☀️

As much as we love traveling for the holiday, sometimes staying home reminds you that the simple moments are the best ones.

What are your Fourth of July plans this year? Are you grilling, watching fireworks, heading to the lake, or just relaxing at home? Tell me below! 🎆

Wishing you all a safe, happy, and memorable Independence Day as we celebrate 250 years of America. God bless America! ❤️🤍💙🇺🇸

Little Miss Riley turns into a fierce little huntr Little Miss Riley turns into a fierce little huntress every time she spots a bird outside! 😹🐦 The second she sees one from our screened-in porch, the cat chirping begins and it cracks me up every single time.

She acts like she’s ready to take on the entire bird population, but let’s be honest… this indoor cat has never hunted anything a day in her life. 😂 Somehow that screened-in porch makes her feel all big and bad!

As a cat mom, I love watching all the funny cat behaviors that come out when Toby and Riley start bird watching. Those adorable chirps, chattering noises, and intense stares are seriously the cutest thing ever. 🐾

Do your cats make that funny chirping sound when they see birds, squirrels, or other animals outside? Tell me I’m not the only one with a tiny feather-obsessed hunter living in my house! 😹👇

I know the beach isn’t everyone’s favorite place, I know the beach isn’t everyone’s favorite place, but for me, there’s something incredibly healing about sitting by the ocean and listening to the waves roll in. 🌊

Living with chronic illness can feel overwhelming at times, and stress has a way of piling up faster than we realize. But the moment I sink my toes into the sand, breathe in the salty air, and watch the endless horizon, everything seems a little lighter.

A beach day isn’t just a vacation, it’s a reset for my mind, body, and soul. Whether it’s a quick walk along the shore or hours spent listening to the waves, the ocean always reminds me to slow down, breathe, and be present.

Anyone else feel like the beach is the ultimate stress relief? 🩵🌴

I’m so tired of living like this, y’all. 💔 Just l I’m so tired of living like this, y’all. 💔

Just look at how badly my hands are shaking in this video. Yet every appointment seems to end with the same thing: “Your labs are normal, everything looks fine.”

But does this look fine to you?

I’m a dental hygienist, and when these episodes happen, I can barely hold my instruments. The shaking, internal vibrations, dizziness, nausea, racing heart rate, and feeling like I’m about to pass out have become a regular part of my life. It’s scary, frustrating, and honestly exhausting.

For years, I’ve been searching for answers while dealing with chronic illness symptoms that continue to get worse. Being told everything is “normal” when you know something is wrong is one of the hardest parts of this journey.

The good news is that I finally found a functional neurologist who actually listened to me and took my concerns seriously. 🙏 I have a full neurological workup scheduled for July 6th, and it truly cannot get here fast enough.

I’m desperate for answers. I’m tired of feeling miserable. And I’m hoping this appointment is finally the next step toward figuring out what’s causing these tremors, heart rate spikes, dizziness, and other symptoms.

Please keep me in your prayers that this appointment goes well and that I don’t hear the famous line, “Well, your labs are fine,” one more time. 😂🤞

If you’ve ever struggled with chronic illness, POTS symptoms, dysautonomia, unexplained tremors, or medical gaslighting, let me know in the comments. Sometimes it helps to know we’re not alone. ❤️

Verb Energy Bars

I recently have partnered up with Verb Energy Bars and I cannot wait to tell you guys all about them! First of all, they are so delicious and I am already hooked on them even though I just started eating them!

Each little bar contains 65 mg of caffeine, which is just as much as an espresso. But here’s the real kicker: the caffeine is derived from organic green tea alone!

That way you don’t get that jittery feeling like you would from drinking an actual espresso. Oh, and did I mention they are only 90 calories each?! I’m telling y’all, you definitely need to try these out!

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

Verb Energy Bars
Also, how adorable is the packaging alone?!

About Verb Energy

Verb Energy’s main goal is for their consumers to feel great while doing the things they love (as well as the things they don’t love too).

Doing that requires energy and caffeine of course, but Verb wanted to offer something different than just plain ol coffee.

They use ingredients that make you feel good about eating every day. Verb Energy has worked countless hours in a local bakery to create delicious recipes that are filled with minimal and thoughtful ingredients.

They are all natural and gluten free as well!

Coffee Bar
My coffee bar isn’t getting as much use now that I have these verb bars to rely on instead!

As I stated above, the organic green tea is where the Verb Bars get their energy from. And if you’re really tired, you can have two bars which equals a double espresso!

It’s the perfect afternoon pick-me-up or something to just give you that extra boost of energy you need before your workout. Verb Energy has also been featured in Forbes, Business Insider, and CNBC just to name a few.

Wanna Try Verb Energy Bars Yourself??

I’m sure I’ve piqued your interest in these bars already, so if you want to try verb energy out, then now is your chance! You can try their trial pack (which includes 4 full sized bars) for only $0.95! Can you believe that?? Less than one dollar and you get to taste a few of the yummy flavors they have available for you!

The trial pack flavors include: salted peanut butter, maple blueberry, coconut chai, and vanilla latte. They also offer other flavors in bags such as lemon raspberry and simply cocoa. Which by the way, are all delicious!

Energy Bars For Working Out
I love eating one of these to give me energy before I do my Pilates workouts or get on the elliptical!

Other Ways To Order Verb Energy Bars

So once you’ve tried them and decide what your favorites are, then they offer a subscription service that way you can continually get your Verb bars in a timely manner each month.

You can also just continue to order a bag as a one time purchase as well if you aren’t interested in the subscription services.

You can also do a starter kit which includes a full bag of bars and four samples as well. So that means you can get 16 bars for just $12!!

This incredible offer is only available for new customers, but it is such an incredible deal. And you can get so many more bars for your money if you do it this way.

I would highly recommend this option of trying the Verb energy bars if you are at all interested!

Verb Energy Packaging
Look how pretty the packaging is too!

But, by subscribing it saves you more money so it is overall a better outcome to do that. Getting a bag as a one time order is $22, but once you subscribe, you can get them for as low as $20 a piece.

They also offer a few bundle deals too to save you even more money! Each bag includes 12 bars so they will last you a long time as well.

The Perfect Afternoon Pick Me Up
The perfect afternoon pick me up!

The other cool thing about this company is that you can actually just text them about your order. And no, you aren’t talking to a robot!

They will answer any questions you may have and help you with completing your order.

You can text them at: (415) 915-8372. Or if email is more your style: [email protected] is another way to contact them.

Conclusion

I am so super impressed by this company and their products. I really do love these bars and I personally enjoy them after work. It gives me a little boost of energy that way I can work out when I get home and not feel too sluggish or tired to do so.

They really have been a game changer for me and I have also been able to reduce my coffee intake too thanks to these bars. I highly recommend them and if you have any questions about them, please let me know.

I would be happy to help and I know y’all will love them just as much as I do!

    Wow these look delicious! The fact that the caffeine is derived from green tea as opposed to coffee is super interesting. I’ve been on a tea kick for almost a year now due to the fact that I became extremely addicted to coffee, as in drinking an entire pot per day addicted. I love the flavors, salted peanut butter is right up my alley!

🇺🇸 Happy 250th Birthday, America! ❤️🤍💙 I still can 🇺🇸 Happy 250th Birthday, America! ❤️🤍💙 I still can’t believe we’re celebrating America’s 250th birthday today!

It looks like it’s going to be a beautiful (and VERY hot 🥵) Fourth of July, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. This year we’re keeping things simple with a low-key Independence Day celebration at home, and honestly… it’s exactly what we needed.

We’ll be spending the day relaxing by the pool before my hubby fires up the smoker for his famous ribeyes. Nothing beats a classic 4th of July cookout with good food, sunshine, and the people you love. 🇺🇸🥩☀️

As much as we love traveling for the holiday, sometimes staying home reminds you that the simple moments are the best ones.

What are your Fourth of July plans this year? Are you grilling, watching fireworks, heading to the lake, or just relaxing at home? Tell me below! 🎆

Wishing you all a safe, happy, and memorable Independence Day as we celebrate 250 years of America. God bless America! ❤️🤍💙🇺🇸

Little Miss Riley turns into a fierce little huntr Little Miss Riley turns into a fierce little huntress every time she spots a bird outside! 😹🐦 The second she sees one from our screened-in porch, the cat chirping begins and it cracks me up every single time.

She acts like she’s ready to take on the entire bird population, but let’s be honest… this indoor cat has never hunted anything a day in her life. 😂 Somehow that screened-in porch makes her feel all big and bad!

As a cat mom, I love watching all the funny cat behaviors that come out when Toby and Riley start bird watching. Those adorable chirps, chattering noises, and intense stares are seriously the cutest thing ever. 🐾

Do your cats make that funny chirping sound when they see birds, squirrels, or other animals outside? Tell me I’m not the only one with a tiny feather-obsessed hunter living in my house! 😹👇

I know the beach isn’t everyone’s favorite place, I know the beach isn’t everyone’s favorite place, but for me, there’s something incredibly healing about sitting by the ocean and listening to the waves roll in. 🌊

Living with chronic illness can feel overwhelming at times, and stress has a way of piling up faster than we realize. But the moment I sink my toes into the sand, breathe in the salty air, and watch the endless horizon, everything seems a little lighter.

A beach day isn’t just a vacation, it’s a reset for my mind, body, and soul. Whether it’s a quick walk along the shore or hours spent listening to the waves, the ocean always reminds me to slow down, breathe, and be present.

Anyone else feel like the beach is the ultimate stress relief? 🩵🌴

I’m so tired of living like this, y’all. 💔 Just l I’m so tired of living like this, y’all. 💔

Just look at how badly my hands are shaking in this video. Yet every appointment seems to end with the same thing: “Your labs are normal, everything looks fine.”

But does this look fine to you?

I’m a dental hygienist, and when these episodes happen, I can barely hold my instruments. The shaking, internal vibrations, dizziness, nausea, racing heart rate, and feeling like I’m about to pass out have become a regular part of my life. It’s scary, frustrating, and honestly exhausting.

For years, I’ve been searching for answers while dealing with chronic illness symptoms that continue to get worse. Being told everything is “normal” when you know something is wrong is one of the hardest parts of this journey.

The good news is that I finally found a functional neurologist who actually listened to me and took my concerns seriously. 🙏 I have a full neurological workup scheduled for July 6th, and it truly cannot get here fast enough.

I’m desperate for answers. I’m tired of feeling miserable. And I’m hoping this appointment is finally the next step toward figuring out what’s causing these tremors, heart rate spikes, dizziness, and other symptoms.

Please keep me in your prayers that this appointment goes well and that I don’t hear the famous line, “Well, your labs are fine,” one more time. 😂🤞

If you’ve ever struggled with chronic illness, POTS symptoms, dysautonomia, unexplained tremors, or medical gaslighting, let me know in the comments. Sometimes it helps to know we’re not alone. ❤️
