15 Things To Brighten Your Day

Make Yourself Feel Better!

  1. If it’s nice, go outdoors even if it means just going onto your patio, backyard, or opening a window. Fresh air and sunshine on your face, sunshine, and fresh air is refreshing.
  2. Ladies, get reading after a shower or a good face washing! Girl, wash your face, grab this, and get a morning burst of freshness
  3. Pamper yourself. I don’t know where you are, but if the sun is shining! Do you have hairy legs? Give yourself a close shave and be ready to wear shorts! Then it’s cocoa butter for the win. 
  4. Take time to give yourself a sugar scrub or a salt scrub. Your skin will love you for it, and it will be something easy you can do for yourself.

We hopped into our cars, Sam got the Pokémon Go app on her cell phone and has been playing that, and then we came home.

We also packed up our art and journaling stuff and went to the beach, and we sat in the car doing art. We watched and listened to the waves. Played music, then headed home while watching the sunset.
