Does the positive vibe helps…?!
Hello guys,
Today I would like to talk to you about those moments when you feel like everything underneath is falling apart despite all the positive thoughts you have in your mind.
Yes, there is moments like that in everyday life… and yes, those moments pass too… sooner or later
The only difference between going through those moments with as much as possible positive thoughts is that when it’s all gone you would be able to recover faster and easier… and yes, it is hard to actually apply those rules when you are really upset… oh boy, tell me about it… I’m mostly that kind of person who just need one flame… and the fire / storm / scandal is 100% sure… yes, a pure Aries 🙈
But I’m trying… really I’m trying to minimize the problem, not to make it even bigger with a nice fight for example. And yes, for me the positive vibe really helps in most of the times ☺️
So… my advice is to take a deep breath, make a nice dessert instead… or go out (if you can… with all this lockdowns) and enjoy some free quality time 💖
Whatever you choose to do… do it and keep your mind clean from negative thoughts 💖
Have a great week and start of the new month 🍀

New year new challenges…
Hello guys,
How are you in this cold weather. Hope all of you are healthy and happy!
Today I would like to tell you more about how my year started. I decided that 2021 will be different for us, because of the all changes we made last complicate year.
So first I decided to turn into myself and start a really healthy life. I decided to turn to a nutritionist for a complete and balanced meal plan and now I’m finishing my first week of this change.
I decided to stay away from all my negative thoughts and feelings about our new apartment and stop chopping this topic with my husband, so after all whatever happens with us in the future, at least I will be sure for myself that I did everything that I could.
I’m pretty sure that this year will be challenging too, even more than the last one, but this is something good. Challenges come to our life’s to change it in a good way, I strongly believe in this! Even in the worst scenario ( for example friend of mine just lost her kid due to a cancer… I really don’t know what to say to her now…it’s hard…).
All I want to say is that yes, life is hard… I experience a lot of shakings in my mood, doubts in my own abilities, but if you let all those feelings to take advantage of you the situation would become even worse.
I decided for myself that I’ll stop making all those big plans for everything and try just to have an idea of what I’m gonna do or where we’re gonna go and etc. I would like to be more flexible at the end of this year, more the type of person who’s trying to solve the problem, not to analyse it forever.
So this is practically my most bright new year’s resolutions. What about yours? I will be very happy if you share some of them with me in the comments below.
Have a great day and weekend!

The positive part of 2020
Hello guys,
In the very end of this year I would like to turn back and think about of all the positive things that happened to us. I mean, yes, 2020 was a very hard year for all of the people in the world…some of us lost friends or family members, some of us lost their main income, some of us went through this year with other personal issues due or not to coronavirus… but instead of looking back with regrets… let’s be thankful for the lessons we learned and continue in the New Year with more positive thoughts!
I understand how hard could be that, but in the other way we won’t win anything if we stay on the negative side of the situation.
Whatever happens in the future with the spread of the coronavirus… let’s trick it with more flexibility, with calmness and more smiles 💖
First I would like to say a big Thank you to all of you, who read, like and are actually interested in my blog page! Thank you guys, I really appreciate it, this page was a dream that came true this year, because I was able to say to my self “ What are you afraid of?! Just do it!”
I’m not gonna make this post like the typical New Year’s resolutions, this year I’m just thankful… for all that things, that happened to me, to all the lessons I learned, to all of my friends and family!
2021 is a new chapter… you all are capable to do whatever you really want to! Yes, it’s not easy… but after all it’s worth it, believe me 😘
Thank you all for staying with me this year!
I promise to share a lot of new adventures with you in the next one 🥰
Stay healthy and positive!
xoxo
Happy New Year!

Late fall getaway
Sometimes we all need to escape for the weekend and just do nothing.
That’s why I decided to give for my husbands birthday a little getaway from our daily routine as a present. And it was really nice and relaxing. We both need that for sure.
I highly recommend this place for a little spa getaway. It’s perfect for couples who doesn’t want to live the resort. The food, the view the people…everything was great!
If the situation wasn’t like that and we weren’t living in this pandemic world, probably we will travel to another place outside our country, but it is what it is and we were happy to spend the weekend just us two, no matter what is the situation outside.
So after all…we came to an agreement that we definitely should do it again, if we have that possibility… if the situation allows us that.
It’s nice to spend couple days with your husband like the good old times… 😎
Have a great weekend guys!
And if you can give yourself a little getaway…just do it, it’s worth it! 💖

Three years…time flies 💖
Hello guys, I’m writing today, because I feel very nostalgic and happy at the same time. My little boy, turned three years couple days ago.
I still can’t believe when this years passed…
For the all of you who don’t know me, he was born prematurely in 35th week of my pregnancy. He was tiny little baby and now is one happy little boy ☺️
I feel so thankful every single day, since I saw this little eyes, arms and feet…to be a mom it’s the happiest thing that ever happened to me 💖
Thank you, my dear son, for all those little moments every day, for teaching me how to rediscover the world with you…for choosing me for your mommy! I love you to the moon and back!
Thank you guys, for reading my story!
Have a great Sunday evening!

Do we take our partner for granted?!
Hello guys, in this sunny autumn afternoon I’m thinking about our relationships and how sometimes we take our partners for granted without even noticing that.
Yes, with our busy schedules during the week and even weekends, somehow we stopped being romantic. We just go through our tasks and at the end of the day, we are so tired of that routine that we just turn Netflix or some YouTube channels and just fall asleep after. And did anyone actually notice that this routine is repeating again and again… and if we don’t wake up on time from this bubble we take the risk to destroy our relationships.
I’m not sure if we women notice that situation more often than men…, but sometimes it really hurts when you went through that conversation several times in your relationship and your partner still wakes up in the morning, knowing that you two are alone (the kids are not in your bedroom) and you could have some privacy and instead of hugging and kissing you, he takes his phone and open the newsfeed or Facebook…
I’m not trying to say that every day should be exciting adventure for you, because sometimes it’s really nice to just stay at home with your partner, instead of going out, and pour a glass of wine, turn the Netflix on…but let’s not get so comfy with that and try to pay more attention to your relationship. Do some new things for both of you, travel to new places, discover new things together…if we don’t make the effort to keep the flame of our marriage/partnership, believe me, it won’t last for long… In the times we live, into the quick liquidity relationships and hectic daily life…we have to at least try more often to spend some quality time with our partner.
So…after all…everything that matters is love. Love yourself, love your partner, family, friends….when we give love it returns to us…this is the circle of life 💕
Thank you all for reading my thoughts this afternoon, if you like it, you know what to do 😎
Have a great afternoon!

Parents need life too…,right?!
Hello guys, how are you? This couple weeks I feel not myself at all.
My little one starts to wake up at night again and not even crying but screaming during the night…I don’t know if this is the last teeth, just the “terrible two’s“ or the change of the season…maybe the mothers here who are reading my blogs could give me an advice how to proceed with that screaming and crying periods of “I want that/I don’t want it “… yeah…sometimes it’s hard to survive through the end of the day.
And on the next day you should be fresh and full of energy, because you need to go to work and etc. I’m not trying to complain, don’t get me wrong…I don’t know…just share my experience as a working mommy.
Because you know that it’s not only the happy pictures in the social media…everyone haves their own moments, right? We all see happy faces and clean houses and moms who looks like just got out of the magazine…but let’s face it, nothing of this is actually real and most of the time those people probably experience the same things like us.
And in the hard times with all that pandemic situation and upcoming cold season , if we don’t find our own happiness and happy place….nobody could be able to do it for us, right 😊
Sometimes I in person, experience a lot of hard times with my little boy. He’s turning 3 years next week and there is times when he becomes really fussy and frustrated for actually nothing… like for example the crises from last night “I want some water (he couldn’t reach the bottle by himself, he got angry) than started to scream “I don’t want water “…. all this drama in 3 AM…funny right?! And this recently happens often… I don’t know if that is normal or my kid is going through a phase…if you share your experience with me that would be very helpful guys ☺️
So, yes, right or wrong…rest or sleepy…we are all parents and we definitely need a break sometimes, after all we have rights too 😀
Thank you all for reading my blog today! Have a great weekend and see you soon 💖

Nothing is what it seems to be…but that’s why we love it
Hello guys, I know I wasn’t posting for a while, but like all of us sometimes, I’ve been through a let’s say…hard time.
The truth is that I thought that I could be pregnant with a second one, it turns out….I’m not…, but all those waiting and wondering “Am I?” just shakes my world in a bit.
Not because I don’t want to have another baby, I do…, but now it’s not the right time for me and I as a woman could feel when is the right time for something like that and when is not.
I think that even that we are living in 21st century sometimes women are not appreciated enough in some countries(or I’m not sure if this is because of the country you’re living and all the common habits, or it’s in your own DNA, no matter what kind of people and mentality you are surrounded). Sometimes men think that if you can handle one baby, why not make some more, especially if they are not that much involved in taking care of their kids. I have the impression, may be it’s just my impression, but in a lots of families men/husbands/fathers doesn’t take that much care for their kids when they are little, I mean they focus on their own job and career and don’t help that much to their wife’s/partners.
Believe me that’s not really good, because that’s why the woman became more depressed, more obsessed about the kids, she doesn’t have that much time for herself and after all as much as you adore your little ones you become unsatisfied of your personal life and that’s not healthy at all…we all know where that lead goes.
So my dear male friends, if you wanna have another baby, please, first talk about it with your partner…don’t make her feel like an incubator 😃
Being a parent is one of the best things in my life ( you all probably know that from my previous posts), but it’s not enough for me and probably for a lot of the women who is reading my posts… so discuss this topic with your partner and if he/she is not ready now don’t be pushy. Appreciate your partner’s decision and wait for the right time… and if something else happens and you actually turns out to be pregnant…don’t feel sorry for that and accept that the destiny wants you to have baby now, and there is nothing bad about that ☺️
Wishing you all an amazing day.

Healthy life or where is the thin red line
Hello guys, today I would like to discuss something different with you.
It’s all about the healthy life that literally deluge our everyday life. I mean…how many of you were having organic food instead of a random one ten years ago, how many of you used to go to the gym or make some home workouts…used to eat chia, avocado, quinoa and etc… How many of you are people who can’t live without activities. I’m one of them…I confess, but that’s because I used to play rhythmic gymnastics for 9 years and I grew up with sports in my life. But also, when I was younger I used to eat much more carbs, fat and junk food than nowadays and this is also because the healthy life has such a good marketing strategies not only in my country but all over the world. And it is something great, because one of the most popular diseases this days is the obesity of the population.
But I want to tell you something, mostly to the women who are reading my post (unfortunately we are the part of the humanity that is affected mostly by the fit and healthy bodies, trying to be and look perfectly in the eyes of the people around us) this is a thin red line and if you don’t know how and where is your limit the results of that lifestyle aren’t healthy at all…and yes, I’m talking exactly about anorexia and bulimia.
The joy of a salad is that it can be made up from almost anything and it will always provide you with a healthy, colorful, and fun food experience.
It all starts in your mind…someone told you “hey, it looks like you gained some weight” or even more innocent “ I like your muffin top” and than you decide to start living much more healthy life and to rid of those couple pounds extra…all right, good idea, to exchange the grease junk food with their healthy equivalents, to eat more veggies…but some people can’t just keep that and seeing how much weight they lost just want to continue that way…and this is exactly the begging of that spiral of that terrible diseases.
There is nothing wrong to want for your self to have a healthy body and healthy mind, to workout, to try to eat healthy and good food, but believe me if you start to feel good only when you see how much kg you lost…just stop for a while and make a cheat day or even week…my point is to learn where is that red line and to learn how to not cross it.
My all point is that we should learn how to love our bodies whenever they are…stretch marks or not, cellulite or no…this is our body… everything could change nowadays…there is aesthetic procedures, cosmetics, healthy meal plans, home workouts and etc. , but if we don’t feel that love and respect to our own bodies nothing of that would be satisfying for us…and we will end up wanting more and more and all that efforts won’t be ever enough for us.
So think about it…look your self in the mirror and say “hey, gorgeous, you look amazing today” !
Thank you guys for reading my story today! This topic is really sensitive for me either, so if you like it, you know what to do 😉
Have a great day!
