Inspiring women to develop an outward style to reveal their inner beauty!

Happy New Year, Beautiful!

I want to thank all of you who have reached out to me with your kind and encouraging words and all the prayers going up on my behalf! I have felt every one!!

It has certainly been a crazy 4 weeks since my breast cancer diagnosis! My bilateral mastectomy two days before Christmas went very well as did the reconstruction surgery. I was able to go home Christmas Eve and spend Christmas with my family. My time since then has mostly been spent in doctor’s offices or in my recliner. I have had 4 drain pumps which have made moving around a little difficult but you all know it is going to take a lot to slow me down!

As an update, I saw my Oncologist this week and was able to go over the pathology report with him. He said it was complicated but he was so good to take time to explain it all to us. The report was lymph node negative which is good. However, I did have some microscopic isolated tumor cells that he is investigating with further testing which will determine what my risk rating is for it being other places. Based on the results of that test, he will determine if I will need chemo. It takes 3 weeks for the test to come back so more waiting. I really like him and he’s a Christian too! I have been blessed with a fabulous team of physicians and we are continuing to be encouraged for a positive outcome! Ultimately I know God is in control and I am in His hands! I will appreciate your continued prayers as I continue on this journey!

Let's Do Better!

Do you have any New Year traditions? Do you make resolutions? I really don’t make resolutions but I do like to take this time to first reflect on the previous year and see what I have accomplished. Then I like to take this new beginning and think about what I would like to do better in the new year. I try to think of things I would like to do to make me a better person. I think it is important that we all strive to always be better than we were the day before.

We all hear “A New Year - A New You” but I really don’t like that. I much prefer “A New Year - A Better You”. You don’t need to try to be someone new. God made you just the way you are and you are each very special and YOU-nique! Don’t try to be someone you are not. Just try to think of ways you can improve on the amazing woman that you already are.

Maybe you want to lose weight this year for better health. Maybe you want to be more organized for better mental health. Maybe you want to spend less and save more for better financial well-being.

Or maybe you want to spend more time with family and friends and enjoy life to the fullest.

These are the top resolutions every year. I think last year has certainly given us all a time to reflect on what is really important in our lives.

I love setting goals but the problem is we tend to set so many unrealistic goals that, unless we are Superwoman, we can’t possibly attain them all (at least not in the first month anyway). Then we become disappointed in ourselves because we didn’t lose 30 lbs. after those first 2 weeks at the gym or the whole house didn’t get organized in that one day you set aside to do it.

I would like to encourage you to focus on making 2021 your best year yet! Take some time this week and reflect on the blessings of last year and be thankful for those. Then take some time to decide what you would like to accomplish in 2021 to make it even better.

I am looking forward to sharing this new year with you and giving you tips through my emails and social media to help you become the best YOU that YOU can be!

Thank you for coming along with me on this amazingly fun, faithful and fashionable journey!

From a heart filled with grace and veins filled with glitter,
Donna
