The Cre8tive Life

Issue 90- December 11, 2020

Hello Friends-

"Welcome back to this week's episode of, "The Cre8tive Life"- your weekly newsletter full of lifestyle tips, smiles, and musings.

It has been quite a week on my end; and, the only thing I can really honestly think of right now is sleep... So, I'm going to cut this part short, and get on with the meat of the newsletter.

Sending lots of love, hugs, and prayers to you all!!!

Random stories, pictures, video highlights, and other life musings can be found on my personal instagram page (@e101) and official brand page (@thecre8tiveartisan) throughout the week (when/if I end up posting anything).

*And, if you have missed any previous newsletters, feel free to check out the archive section on my website: HERE.

Continued prayers that you and your loved ones stay safe and healthy

(mentally & physically) out there 💗.

MY WEEKLY PICKS:

My weekly (random) compilation of some of my favorite "cre8tive" things that I want to share:

FAVORITE WORD: Jentacular (adj): Of or pertaining to a breakfast taken early in the morning, or immediately on getting up

ADVICE: “Success is not having much, but wanting little.” – Anonymous

MOOD MUSIC: I've been in a pretty nostalgic old school music mood, and found myself humming Spandau Ballet's, "True" a few times this week.

QUARANTINE RECOMMENDATION: I have not seen the BBC's show, "The Repair Shop." But, I have heard great feel good things about it, and will be putting it into my weekend rotation.

THE MORE YOU KNOW: Have you ever wondered about various sleeping positions? If so, you might find this, "What Is The Best Sleeping Position For Restful Sleep?" to be an interesting read.

LIFESTYLE TIP: Looking for some quick and easy comfort foods to make? Here are 30 Easy Crock-Pot Meals You Can Prep in 20 Minutes or Less. Let me know if you find something you like!

FEEL GOOD SHARE: With the way my emotions are set up these days, this TikTok video from Lauren Herrle gave me all the tears!

MUSINGS ON LIFE:

A word.

CRE8TIVE CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK:

This week's challenge is: A wild card- your choice!

ON THE HORIZON:

I will be taking a bit of a mini pause on my community activations as I gear up for some new projects that will taking up a lot more of my bandwidth. But, be on the lookout for some (very sporadic) events here and there. (As doing these events, and sharing in community really does bring me joy.)

And, if you haven't heard me say it lately, I want to thank you for your support and readership. It means a lot that you take time out of your day to take in my little musings and life shares!

Lastly, if you happen to have any future topic ideas, or come across any events I should know about, PLEASE feel free to send those along my way. I always LOVE discovering and learning about new things!

Have a great day, and be sure to take time to enjoy your life!
