Unsure, Uninspired, Unmotivated

April 6, 2020 · In: Lifestyle

I can’t believe it has been over a week since posting a blog post! I was super occupied last week on Instagram hosting the #RockYourLilly challenge – which was a huge success. I was so happy to see over 500 posts for the week! So thank you so much if you participated and supported me through that.

But I’m not gonna lie, I am feeling super unsure, uninspired, and unmotivated – like most of us are. Last week the challenge distracted me, but this week I need to face the music.

I wish I could go on with life and be content as normal, but I can’t. Now more than ever it’s difficult to get inspired and find things to write and post about. On the personal side of things, each day seems to bring a new battle and some days are better than others. Some days I am highly motivated – I do my workout, eat, clean, get dressed, and get stuff done. Other days I eat 20 Oreos and cry because I want this all to be over.

It’s interesting to think about considering my life isn’t all that different during all of this. Grant has worked from home for years, and I’ve been doing school online for years. It’s crazy how big of a difference going out and about in the evenings can make to your mental health.

Why am I writing this? To let you know you’re not alone! And even when someone’s life looks amazing online – it may not be. I’m really hoping to get back into the swing of things blog-wise over the next week. Even if I just write one blog post a week, it’s better than none.

Every day I pray for the healing of our country. I pray to God that someday soon things can be as normal as possible. If there is one thing this situation has done for me, it has made me appreciate the little things. I hope you’re all doing well and staying healthy and sane.

Thanks for reading,

xoxo
Jayme

Summer is calling my name this weekšŸšā˜€ļø But Summer is calling my name this weekšŸšā˜€ļø

But with overcast skies, weather in the 60’s, and no vacations planned until the end of August - it’s hard to pick up the callšŸ˜…

Let me know what your summer plans arešŸ‘™

While we didn’t have the best beach weather last While we didn’t have the best beach weather last weekend, we still managed to soak up some sunā˜€ļøšŸŒŠ

The best part of any beach trip is showering after a long day in the water and throwing on your favorite sun dress with your fresh tanšŸ¤ I am obsessed with this new one I snagged for only $35 - plus the perfect purse to match🐚

Genuinely if I have $1 for every time I’ve been told I ā€œdon’t belong in Western PAā€ - I’d have enough money to move to the southern city of my choosingšŸ˜‚ But seriously - I’ve gotten these comments since I was in middle school! 

I’ve heard it said PA is 10 years behind on fashionšŸ‘€ I can confirm people don’t understand me or my Lorna Murray hat I bought back in 2022šŸ‘’

Getting vulnerable for a second: I love creating content and blogging but photographing myself lately, especially on this trip, has been rough for my self-esteem. While curating this post I was second guessing even posting these pictures because I didn’t like the way my body looked. Over the past month I’ve been on a regimen of medications that have thrown my body through a loop have had me not feeling myself. Even a ā€œhealthyā€ diet and daily exercise can’t reverse the side effects I’m experiencing and it’s been hard for me to reconcile that. In this process I’ve been reminding myself I don’t look at others around me or people I follow online and analyze their bodies or looks. 

So this is your reminder that we’re overthinking ourselves more than others are thinking about us. And it’s easier said than done, but give yourself grace through all seasons of lifešŸ¤
