STOP SCROLLING! Give yourself permission to pause... I talk a lot about Self-care with my blog. I think that’s partly because I nerd-out over the topic (it’s super important) AND partly because it holds me accountable to work on my OWN Self-care.
#ad recently I’ve had the unique opportunity to try out @rebelkineyewear digital eyewear! (Aren’t these glasses adorable) Amazingly, blue light is emitted from my phone, computer, and other screen devices that I use, DAILY! Wow, right? Excessive exposure to blue light can be super detrimental to my vision (and overall health). How did I not take this seriously, before now? #wearealwayslearning
3 Self-care tips for my fellow #bloggerinfluencer:
1. It’s important to protect your eyes from harmful blue light emitted from your digital devices! And, it’s way doable to do so when a small business like @rebelkineyewear provides a stylish way to make prevention possible!
2. Turn your phone off at least one hour before you go to bed. Let your mind, body, & soul have permission to rest!
3. Set realistic goals. Setting goals gives you motivation, accountability & perseverance. Plan out month-by-month what you want to accomplish. Baby steps! I would not recommend planning the entire year out in advance, because you cannot predict what will happen. It is far more powerful to set quarterly or monthly goals that are realistic and align with your mission.
P.s. If you like my glasses, I’ve got good news! You could win a FREE pair! Head over to @rebelkineyewear to enter their giveaway! Hurry! It ends TONIGHT at 11:59pm CT Xx, Morgs* // #digitalinfluencers #digitaleyestrain #bestfootforward

'A crown is merely a hat that lets the rain in.'
(Alexander the Great)

Or as Her Majesty so succinctly puts it in this wonderful clip - 'there are some disadvantages to crowns...'

Happy Easter Sunday Birthday to you Ma'am, (Queen Elizabeth II, b 21st April, 1926), from me, born on Easter Sunday, many ago... .
.
Easter represents a time for hope and new beginnings.
In the Northern Hemisphere Spring is in the air, bringing with it new life in the fields and hedgerows. The first swallows have arrived at the McCottage, lambs bleat and frolick in the field next door, bluebells add an indigo haze to the hills.
.
.
It's time to trust the magic of new beginnings... A very Happy Easter to you and yours xxx ️
.
.
Mantra for the week ahead:
.
.
ALWAYS wear your invisible crown!

It's Mothering Sunday here in the UK.
To all of you who have a wonderful bond with your mum, and a fabulous relationship with your children, I wish you a happy day full of love and joy!
But this post is really for those who don't tick these boxes, and for whom Mothering Sunday can be stressful, sad and difficult. For those who feel hurt, inadequate, lonely, angry, and who have fallen out with family and dread days like this, I'd just like to say please don't be hard on yourself. You are good enough.
Buy yourself flowers today, get baking, plant some bulbs, light a lovely candle, put on some music, write a page in your journal.
Forgive, accept, move on.

"She was of the stuff of which great men's mothers are made.
She was indespensible to high generation, feared at tea-parties, hated in shops, and loved at crises."
(Thomas Hardy, b, 2nd June, 1840)

Mantra for the week ahead:
.
Be More Bathsheba! .

'Can I speak to the manager?' My children used to cringe, (and no, I didn't have the haircut to match! )
I don't do it so much any more, now I write the angry letters and put them aside, and do as Abraham Lincoln did -
Never Sent. Never Signed. .
.
Have a wonderful week ahead, here's to the stuff of which great men's mothers are made... what exactly do you think that is?

I think Ms Everdene would have LOVED this fabulous tea-party at Chateau de Luce arranged by the marvellous @matthew_oliver_weddings

'I am afraid we are little better than straws upon the water; we may flatter ourselves that we swim, when the current carries us along.'
(Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, b 26th May, 1689)
.
.
I think Lady Mary was a better swimmer than most, having, by the age of fourteen, taught herself Latin, written two albums of poetry, a short novel and a prose and verse romance. She also corresponded regularly with the Archbishop of Canterbury.
.
.
Her message here, and mantra for the week ahead:
.
GO WITH THE FLOW
.
Or maybe we should .
BE THE FLOW ?
.
.
Learn to work with the flow of life, try not to resist the circumstances you have no control over?
Or is that just an excuse for not taking action...? .

Straws upon the water from @stevelannin ✨#mappertonhouse
Oh hey! #Sponsored That happy feeling when you have been using @Kerasal Intensive Foot Repair and now have smoother and softer feet thanks to it! Don’t forget to grab your own tube @walmart in the footcare aisle and see the amazing results for yourself. I'm honestly so happy with the difference I've seen in my heels. I actually saw results in 1 day! It has been a game changer for my feet this summer. #bestfootforward #selfcare #momlife #floridablogger #summerlife #summercare #spaday #pedicure #kerasal #walmart #takingcareofme #takingcare #athomespa #fblogger #lifestyleblogger
