Being a full time MOM and TEACHER can be exhausting. Both of these titles are all about caring and educating OTHER people. It is extremely easy for us to forget about US and let ourselves go! Every so often you need to "check your battery" and make time for YOU! It is OKAY to invest in yourself. Even if it is just $5 or 5 minutes!
The role of Mom AND teacher can cause you to get a limited amount of sleep. TRUST ME I know from experience! Since I get such little sleep the dark circles under my eyes are a SERIOUS problem! These eye masks reduce the darkness and make my face feel fresh and rejuvenated! Pop these bad boys on, grab a glass a wine, and relax!
Let's face it. No one drinks as much water as they should. Especially educators like US! We barely have enough time to make copies! Water keeps us hydrated, healthy and is essential to keep us going! Since I have bought this QuiFit water bottle, I have never drank so much water in my LIFE! It has 25 amazing colors to choose from, and gives you goals to work towards throughout the day! It also has a straw which I think makes it much easier to drink! (not sure why but it does!)
If you ever feel the need to escape your reality for just a little bit, do not feel ashamed, you ARE NOT ALONE! Reading a good book is a great way for me to escape reality and put myself into a alternate universe! This book ->
has been one of my recent favorites! It is a book about education and three women who end up being connected in a way you would never imagine! I won't tell you much more, so I don't spoil the book for you! Go check it out for yourself!
I am also currently reading this book too! If you want another option!
I have recently invested in some awesome MAKEUP to make me feel beautiful when I get ready in the morning! We all deserve to feel beautiful in our own skin, right?! They have some AMAZING products. Not only do they have makeup but they have skincare products as well! GO CHECK IT OUT, and buy yourself something nice. Even if it's just a new lip gloss. You deserve it!
Alright guys, this one is EXPENSIVE and obviously you do not have to get this exact brand. This is just what I have invested in for MYSELF and my HEALTH. Having a baby has really done a number on my body. After 9 months, it has still not gone back to normal! Who can relate?? And who wants to leave their baby and spend a million dollars on a gym membership? NOT ME! So I decided to invest in an at home cycle bike! This way, my little one can crawl around and be right by my side as I get a good sweat sesh in!
Click Here for another brand that is less expensive!
When shopping for clothes, my number one priority is that I want items that I can wear to both teach in and to go out with friends for a glass of wine and still feel cute!
Shein is one of my favorite websites to shop! The items are cute, fun, and most importantly AFFORDABLE.
