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? 🩵🌴

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. ❤️

Whimsy Home Wednesday Link Party

Happy Wednesday my friends! What have y’all been up to this week?? I have been decorating my porch for fall and that has definitely kept me pretty busy! However, I have some exciting news for you! Me and some of my blogging friends have decided to team up and do a fun link party for you guys! We are calling it Whimsy Home Wednesdays and if you are a home/lifestyle/travel/food blogger too, we’d love for you to participate with us.

I’ll explain more of the rules below as well as all of the wonderful hosts who are doing it with me too. We will be starting it up for the first time next week and I would absolutely love for you to join us!

Side View of Fall Front Porch Steps
Here’s a little view of my porch I’ve been working on this week!

Whimsy Home Wednesday Link Party Rules

Like I said above, our first link part will start next Wednesday, October 26th and we will be doing a fun Halloween theme. We will have the link party going every single Wednesday after that, and will usually have a fun theme once a month as well.

Our link party will be live on 9:00 am EST and stays open until Saturday at 9:00 am EST every week as well.

  • You are encouraged to post up to 3 posts in the link party pertaining to recipes, crafts, home decor, gardening, DIY, travel, etc.
  • No shop pages, sales or business links. Link to a specific post that you have created or wrote, not your home page.
  • We would appreciate sharing the link party love by including the Whimsy Home Wednesday graphic or a text link back to the party in your linked post.
  • This is a party – go mingle! Please visit some of the other links and show them some love.
  • By linking your blog posts on Whimsy Home Wednesday, you are giving the hostesses permission to use your images to showcase your post if you are chosen as a weekly feature. By posting you acknowledge that the content of your post is your own.
  • DO NOT PIN FROM IMAGES ON THIS PAGE (it just won’t work right on Pinterest). However, please visit the original post/source and pin from there. That works perfectly!
  • Please make sure that your images are in a jpeg or png format. If we can’t save your image, we may not be able to feature you. So sad!
  • We would love to connect with you! Subscribe to our email lists or follow us on Pinterest or one of our social platforms – Instagram, Facebook etc.

Meredith From Arts and Classy Blog

Meredith Schneider created her blog back in 2012 with the hopes of being able to decorate her apartment with a small budget since she lived in Los Angeles. She found that at the time there weren’t a lot of resources or sites that catered to helping renters decorate their spaces without hurting their deposit.

Since the blog was born, Meredith began working on many projects. She specializes in furniture flips, upcycling projects, and Dollar Tree DIYs. Meredith is a Hometalk TV host and has been featured on PopSugar’s Facebook show “Crafty AF”, and a series called Design Dare on YouTube.

Meredith has a passion for all things design on a dime and is excited to continue sharing creative ideas with the world. Follow along and see budget-friendly flips, projects, crafts, and more!

Fun fact- I actually met Meredith in person at The Haven Conference this year! Not only is she super sweet and genuine, but we are both North Carolina girls too! Check out her cute post on how to make yarn pumpkins. Perfect for the fall season!
