Love this vlog and I do prefer it more than the full day at school vlog. As a teacher as well, I lean more towards this type of vlog because I like to disconnect from teaching things at home. Love you showing the balance. Thanks for posting!🎉
This vlog is so inspiring! I started experiencing teacher burnout almost 2 years ago and I made an executive decision to go back to graduate school for school counseling. After being in education for 17 years, it is time for me to do something different. I will be graduating May 2025! It has been challenging going to graduate school because I'm a wife, mom, full time teacher, and the "go-to" person for family members and friends. I am learning that it is ok to say no and that I am not super woman. I am currently reading "The Best Yes: Making Wise Decisions in the Midst of Endless Demands" by Lysa Terkeurst. It is a must read if you have not read it yet. This book is challenging me and I love it! Thanks again for being transparent and this vlog was right on time for me.
You DO look peaceful. I'm sure there are bumps along most days, but it sounds like you're taking them in stride. And you're right about how we're not quite "in the trenches" yet, although I can't believe we're already headed into week 6! Future LaTawnya is probably gonna thank you for setting boundaries now. I made note of your grading boundaries for myself. Take care!
I work on the weekends too. I'd rather do a little, than put myself down for doing something. I usually will work for an hour on Sunday night and that's enough. and use my preps to get stuff ready. I can't do any work after school at all. when I get home my brain turns off.
Hello. I had a question regarding your adorable sweet doggies. First I’ll say I am a first time dog owner and it has a been a joy as well as it’s share of challenges. I work full time also but I have someone who watches him during the day, fortunately. Anyway my question is have you brought them enrichment toys, puzzles, snuffle mats, slow feeders? Do they get to go outside and just sniff? I am asking because I have learned how important these things are to dogs and their well-being. Please know I ask my friends and co-workers these questions all the time too. I consider you a YT friend, lol. Anyway I know you love and care for your dogs, so please know I mean no disrespect. I just love the want all dogs to have a the best life they can. Please hug Woofi and Luna for me and my dog Echo.
I love that you get everything prepared the night before! I need to follow your example. I always find myself running late in the mornings! Love your routines!
I love the dedication to YOU! Have you tried the egg bites from Sprouts? They’re my go to for a quick breakfast during the week. Thanks for sharing your Sunday? I appreciate it.
I don't know why I never did this before, but I decided to get my outfits together for several days at a time, maybe Mon-Wed to help save time in the mornings, and it has been one of the best things I could've done for myself. I'm not rushing NEARLY as much as I was in previous years. It saves me so much time not having to think about it each morning. Kind of like meal prepping. LOL
I used to pick outfits a week at a time and liked having it all done, whether you do it one day at a time, or several days at a time know what you are putting on makes for a much smoother morning.
@@ReignBeauxStar Once in a blue moon I will switch things up, but my desire to wear something else rarely outweighs my desire to have a stress free morning.
PB Fit is a powdered form of peanut butter that you can mix with water. It is low in fat and sugar. You can also mix it with other liquids to make a smoothie. Congratulations on reaching your 20th year of teaching . I am glad to hear that you are finding more balance in your life. Take care, and thank you for your video presentation.
Replay I like how straight forward your skin care routine is. I have seen some people with 15 steps. I have gotten mine down to 5 products and I'm happy with them. Have a good week 💜
Loving the vlog. I’m definitely trying to find that balance. I’ve been doing a lot of the same type of things as you are. I have a protein shake for breakfast or I have a piece of fruit, a Greek yogurt (Danon lit n fit is my favorite right now) and a hard boiled egg. I’ve been finding that the protein helps to stick with me til lunch!
I thought that was funny that the Golden Girls is part of your Sunday routine. I likes me some Golden Girls, I watch them at night before bed at times. Love how you are growing in your spiritual journey. I think that is contributing to you having a more calm demeanor as well as having your routine.
I feel better when I get everything ready the evening prior, too. One thought, maybe keep your lunch bag unzipped when you place it in the fridge so your lunch is totally refrigerated. Zipped, the insulation is a barrier. Question, is the lash process you had damaging to your regular lashes or is it something I could try but still go back to regular lashes if I wanted to later?
That was a question when I went to my first lash appointment. I think they can be damaging if you don't do the proper maintenance or remove them correctly. So far, I have not noticed any damage on my end.
Happy Sunday! I really enjoy watching your Vlogs. Thanks for sharing your skin care routine. A couple other churches that are good to watch are Times Square Church in New York and Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship in Dallas. Have a blessed day and week!🙏🏽💕
I have a question for anyone who works from home...i find that since i started working from home i find that my personal appearance has diminished. I want to do better but i really dont see how it makes since to get dressed just to work in my home office just to go back in my room lol please help
When I taught from home I tried to make sure I had cute leisure wear, but then again I had to look presentable because I still saw students. I could imagine it being difficult if you don't necessarily interact with anyone, but feeling put together does help me feel better when I am at work.
You’ve started your “Self-Care Era,” may it last forever.🙌

I am in awe of all you are doing! Makes me feel like a wimp. Graduation for you will be here before you know it.
Social Dallas is my home church, I love it! Your Sunday self care vlog inspired me to take some time to myself today. ❤

Same!!
That is where I am at, my brain is absolutely depleted by the time I get home.

And thanks for the reminder to go set up my own light-alarm!
I love that you get everything prepared the night before! I need to follow your example. I always find myself running late in the mornings! Love your routines!
This is a tip I took from her before and it really helps. I have a section with several outfits for me to pick from in the am as well. Helps big time.
It truly does help.
I love the dedication to YOU! Have you tried the egg bites from Sprouts? They’re my go to for a quick breakfast during the week. Thanks for sharing your Sunday? I appreciate it.
Self care being things that make you slow down really resonated with me! Random, but I love your comforter set, lol 💕
Thank you!
Love this kind of content!

Do you wake up and feel like you don't want to wear what you picked out?
@@ReignBeauxStar Not yet! I have decided to switch outfit days once, but that’s about it.

Good to see you and to hear that the year is going better so far!
I love the new you.... thanks for all your input, this helps a lot...😁😁😁
Thanks for sharing. Really enjoy these types of vlogs from you. Nails are on point, but they always are.
Relaxation and Self care looks good on you! 😊 Sending you blessing and peace from South Carolina!
Pastor Madu is amazing! ❤😊
I love how organized you are.
All very relaxing moves.
I love the golden girls!!! I see you! Glad you can take care of yourself.
Loved this vlog!!

It needed to be something that I knew I consistently manage everyday.
I pack my lunch and fill up my water bottles as soon as I get home every day. ❤

The breakfast bowls have been serving me well, they are high in protein. I wish I like boiled eggs more :).
The almond butter from Trader Joe's is good. I put cinnamon on top as well.

The King of Queens is my fall asleep to show...lol!
Trying to have balance too. I am a teacher with kids at home and a big house to clean by myself.
Self-care is even more important for you. I hope you are finding ways to treat yourself well.
Its not food but I usually drink ensure plus the dark chocolate flavor. That holds me until I can eat.
I feel better when I get everything ready the evening prior, too. One thought, maybe keep your lunch bag unzipped when you place it in the fridge so your lunch is totally refrigerated. Zipped, the insulation is a barrier.

OMG!!! I have an extra toasty Cheez it habit too! What are they putting in those things?
I don't know, but they are so dangerous.
Happy Sunday! I really enjoy watching your Vlogs. Thanks for sharing your skin care routine. A couple other churches that are good to watch are Times Square Church in New York and Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship in Dallas. Have a blessed day and week!🙏🏽💕
Thanks for the suggestons
2nd watch from Chicago Illinois
Have you tried protein bars or shakes for breakfast after your workout? Btw, your brows are nice.
I've tried both it's just the protein shakes is one more task for me and I am trying to scale down my task list.
great church to listen to while folding clothes: oak Cliff BIble Fellowship, Dallas TX. :) So good. Biblical Literacy - Firm Foundations
Thank you for the suggestions!
Good Evening from Washington state.
Trader Joe’s egg bites are delicious. I highly recommend.
Didn't know they had them. I will keep an eye out during my next Trader Joes trip.
What's up from Chicago Il
