Amazon Prime Day

Amazon Prime Day is a big yearly summer sale for amazon prime members. This year it starts on July 16th in the US at noon PT and lasts until midnight July 17th. During, the sale you’ll be able to find deals on the  Amazon Echo speaker, kindles, and Fire Tablets. Along with things that you would probably buy for yourself like smart home devices and kitchen gear. I look forward to Amazon Prime Day every year. Because I’m probably going to find a great deal on something that I’ve wanted to get for myself or my home. Last Year I scored a great deal on a Deebot robotic vacuum and saved $120. You don’t want to miss out on the deals this year. So check out these three tips for getting ready for Amazon Prime Day.

A few days ago I was nominated for the versatile blogger award. When I first started blogging I was looking for a way to step out of my shell and meet new people.

So to be considered by someone for something like this is awesome.

The feeling of being overwhelmed is something that kind of creeps up on us very slowly, then hits like a ton of bricks. It often starts subtle making us feel rushed. Then once we’re pushed out of our comfort zones we start losing control bit by bit. We then lose sight of what we are trying to do and most importantly we end up struggling with what we need to get done.  As a result, we become negative and start complaining and blaming everyone and everything, but ourselves. It can often leave us feeling stressed and depressed at times. When you find yourself feeling like you can’t handle or cope with circumstances give one of these coping methods a try.

This past Friday my husband and I celebrated our 6 year wedding anniversary. We spent the day together and visited three different places. We had a lot of fun and got to see more of what Kansas City has to offer. Our first stop was Succotash for breakfast before heading to the Powell Gardens in Kingsville, MO. We ended the day by checking out the First Friday event in the Crossroads District of downtown Kansas City.
