wow  what the wtf is this? seriously its one of my personal mindfully awesome family traditions I TWISTED! after writing this post here!

ok you read the post and now your in and wanna do it! yay now what?

simple, seriously!:

find, buy, or hell make a favorite change keeper! mine is a favorite antique coke pitcher! collect coke stuff but will not drink it I hate the taste! im so TWISTED!

1217181010_Burst01

go to your bank and get change rolls free, or buy some at the dollar tree!

1217181010a

set up collection station! I used my kitchen as that is where we walk into our humble abode!

2018 pics 136

start dropping in all your change! – this part has became a daily happiness and fun event per say for our whole family! “yay I got a dime to put in the jar! or a penny! we even had a few friends drop a quarter or so in while visiting as they enjoyed it as well!

key things to remember!

  • make sure you like the change container- adds to the positivity!
  • pick a date or dates to hold the rolling party! mark it down!- we do it 2 times a year! (June, as part of our summer blast off party! & Dec. as part of our Yule traditions for the month!) but twisted it to you!!
  • take pictures! the fun just piles on and we love to see and have memories of the events we hold yearly! ( we add them to our HOLIDAYS DAILY ALBUMS! )
  • decide what to do with the rolled change! we use June’s for summer fun and December’s towards  Yule gifts and activities! (again twist it to your lifestyle! be mindful thou!
  • this  is also a wonderful way to help kids learn to count money!

all in all a great inspirational and helpful way to make every day memories and teach along the way!

Yes yes! I am aware the dates on pics are way old these are to show you how long we have been enjoying this activity! see MINDFULLY POSTING!! lol!

what do you do with your change?- hell do you even see change anymore?- or is this a old times past for you!? the feel and smell of change- the memories!

regardless happy change collecting! see ya next time for more…..

Twisted Me-

show your bookmarker bar some love!

Every  morning is routine 4 me! like clock work some good, some bad, some I will never skip! I have found my routine that relieves stress,ups my mood,self-esteem, content levels, and keeps me motivated to stay on track!

I love simple no BS no drama and no wasted time! and here is my go to morning routine:

1. I go to Stop, Breathe & Think for free guided on line meditations! don’t forget your favorite head phones!

2. then I put on my mp3 player loaded with all my favorite songs! again head set used! I listen to it all the while I do the following:

* my morning cigarette( the bad!,lol)

* make and drink my coffee!

*plan and conquer  my day! using my BOOKMARK BAR!!

the quick hitter’s I use, up my speed,with no drama stress or wasted time on line! and bonus I am off line more enjoying life,nature, and my family and friends! off line in real time, not net required time!!

these are as follows:

* I always every single morning  I hit my bookmarks bar!

yup first stop n I hit the bookmarks in order as laid out on my bar- meditation,email,Facebook,monthly used folder, pinterest,other bookmarks folder! simple no stress done!!

*my,monthly folder on my bookmarks bar,

has all monthly used links, bills, monthly calendar’s, I use and print every month.link to Canva.com, for my blog work, and to my online college classes I take free online!(your never to old to learn something new!)  snap fish, for monthly picture printing!

* I also use a bookmark folder called other,here I stash links to all the things I wanna read, blog post about, crafts to do etc.. this way I simply set up a time no more than 1 hour a day, or as you choose, to scroll, and click, print and post my way through my whole week in a snap with no wondering, sidetracking, or wasted time!

Pinterest and Facebook are my “break times” also

therefore limited and purposefully used! see more on that in my upcoming post: Pinterest & Facebook used with purpose!

why don’t you show your book marker bar some love and save some time and BS too!

feel free to share your comments stories and tips here right in the comments!

happy bookmarking!

see you next time-

 

   Twisted me-

My Hygge nook-Twisted!

So, I am all about the Mindset of Hygge! truth be honestly & openly told here I have been Hygge living for years and did not even realize it!

I saw the Trend on Pinterest! searched up on it as I always seem to do “search up on shit, interests etc..”

and was like “ oh damn I already do like 90% of this and have for years! Yes, it truly is a way of life, mindset indeed!

some things interested me, and some truthfully did not, some not naming names or topics (YET!) for one reason or another, but today during my SAVERS time, I searched up Hygge living for a spark of interest and as usual Pinterest did nit let me down!

My creative spark this week is owned to making and using daily @ lest once a day ( but I see much more!)

hyggekrog  = YES, I did have to look it up just to be certain I had the right idea! find that here: What is the meaning of the Danish word hyggekrog- 

  • my meaning is totally the- snug place – it hit my happy heart & soul string when I said it aloud! well yes!, that is how I roll- heart & soul moves so do I!
  •   yep! check! snug place is Danish indeed = hyggekrog! SCORE FOR THE SHORT FORTY YEAR OLD!

Then, I turned to Google for inspiration, Pinterest was overwhelming with all kind of non related Danish Hygge topics and non point blank! Shocked I was!Sleepy smile

Google did what Google does finds it!

after weeding and scrolling I found the ones that hit my inner me best –

Share your twisted life with me

  1. “how do you Hygge?”
  2. “do you use Google or Bing?
  3. “do you have a snug place?”

comment here & share you life the Twisted way!thanks for stopping by! until next time- happy Hygge & blessed life ya all!

jars of inspiration and baskets of understanding

I love to pay it forward as often as I can, I strive for @ least once a month, that is my ultimate goal. But alas some month’s life just grabbed me by the ass and chaos kicks in and at the end of the month I am like. “Well played life, well played!”

shake it off with a coffee, throw the not reached goal in my “diaper of life.” And chase the negative thoughts with a cigarette.

(Bad bad habit people, hey the first step is admitting you have a problem. Now if I could just get off the first step I might just get somewhere! Lol) Anyways, where I was in the first place, so I decided I was going to find fun easy crafty ways to pay it forward! So, I surfed over to pintrest.com, and searched and BOOM! FOUND A TON of IDEAS!! Then, it happened, I knew it would… overload of info swirled around my head like a smoking room in the 50’s

(I am guessing, lol I was only 38 so I have no idea.)

  So I first panicked, then I got smart, just like as a parent I pick my battles, I to decided to pick my poison to say… do not assume that as a pun for the ole saying kill em with kindness, hmm? Although that was unexpectedly clever I suppose!

(Bonus point, right? Ha!)

  So after what seemed like hours, actually 30 mins I fell in love with 2 of them, mason Jars and baskets… then I creatively or attempting so, added the two together to add my own twist hence the title………..

jars of inspiration and baskets of understanding ®©

  I love it, and the people I have pay it forward to have loved it also, win win!!

It has all my favorite things, Creative, recycle, fun, positive, easy, and stress free for the most part!

(Hard to read I know, sorry)

I did have a few sewing issues with the doll, I bought a really crazy hand held sewing machine! Had to buy a new one at Kmart and away I went! Completed! Below are the results of two of them, more to come, as the months go on.

In the basket contained a funny stress relieve popper ,The damn it doll and poem, a knapsack of hope, and a Journal half filled with  7 days of inspirations from woman’s day magazine, in the front cover I added a hand written, Note of love and inspiration. I decided the rest of the journal, she could add whatever makes her happy n inspired! She loved it!! So did I even.

This one is a jar of “be sweet not sour in life” With my own personal twists, to add my personal Creative touches.

In it sour patch kids, peppermint patty’s( life is the way it is mint to be) And other small sweets, for added color and options. I added my sisters favorite homemade truffles to A bag on the outside with a tag reading the above: “life Is like a box of chocolates, you never know what your Going to get!” we both loved that as well, to give and to get!!

Paying it forward is a blast! And it’s always so positive, so where is the downside? There isn’t one so,go forth and pay it forward- your way, your style, share the love and laughter of life!

do you pay it forward? If so how? How often? Send me an email or comment here on this post and share your story!

Until next time. May your coffee be hot, your diaper empty, and Pay it forward my friends.

But, for me it is a yay and nay mix this year- for many reasons even at that. I am pro new year because I survived another year, made several memories, had adventures, watched my kids grow! but im nay of ending this year for the simple fact that I feel as though I could of accomplished more, so much more if I only had more time!

but I am a firm believer that you do not live in the past nor should you hold on to the negative in anyway! so positively, with an open mind , positive thoughts, a sense of wonder and accomplishment- weather it big or small I shall move forward! I will face this month head on, and make everyday count and worth while as I did all this year!

and as I go through my December activities calendar I will do it with a thankful heart & a mental reminder that weather its an ending of a year or the middle or beginning of a new one I am forever blessed to have the chance to live it!!

I hope you do the same as you do the activities this month as well! I sure hope you enjoy them as much as we do here at twisted lessons!The link to the December activities calendar HERE!: December-2018-Calendar done

stay happy & blessed and happy holidays!

Twisted me-

I am weak .. I did it!

so it is fall, its snowy cold and all that goes with the holiday season! yet I am a positive person, I try my hardest to make every day worth living and I make the smallest things important as they rightfully are!

but this year I am in a slump,and the weather is playing its toll on me, so in true me , and twisted style I decided to go against my live one day at a time , style and set up a spring count down online, in hopes to combat my slumber!

you can see it and follow it here:Countdown to spring!

How do you handle the season? any good tips? share them with me in the comments here on this post!

TWISTED ME-

A dollar binder saved my life- really!

I was overloaded with stacks of papers, ideas, crafts, calendars all around my house. In drawers, under desks, in my backpack!

It was day to day stressful chaos hell!  Then it happened, siting at my dining room table with my much loved coffee, and a pile of papers under my daughters back pack… I went to remove her bag and BOOM!!

my daughter and I watched in awe, as the papers flew like  confetti, as I jumped up to catch them there went my coffee. Me stressed I muttered the swears of all and as my daughters mouth dropped and tears filled her eyes.. I looked at her and the pit of my stomach hurt.

I hugged her and apologized for my foul mouth and explained the past year with all the new changes, moving, new man, new hobbies, and life got outta hand and daily life was outta control. And not any of it her fault!!

She smiled and sweetly kissed my cheek, and helped me pick up the papers.. I rewarded her with a promise…” that the old me, clutter free, stress free, and was coming back home…after the New Year!”

So here I am! Blogging! Part of my New Year new plan!  Explained,  in another post here.  Any-who,  So there ya have the back story.

here is the blessing and how it has been working!:

  1. buy a 3 ring binder any you like
  2. get on pintrest
  3. make nice with your printer
  4. Have band aides in case like me you obtain a paper cut or two!
  5. scroll, click, print , add!
  6. Then daily go to binder and flip, fill ,finish!

Really, yes really!!  Enjoy stress free life, goals, and happiness!! With a dollar binder! And some creativity!

 how do you stay organized  clutter free, or on task daily?

 I would love to hear them, maybe I will learn a new idea to try.
Till we meet again have a blessed day

my Grateful/ self love journal weekly plan of attack!

 

my Grateful/ self love journal weekly plan of attack!

Every week I do the following starting on Monday!

  • I read one post from what I call “mind opener” – quick posts or pins that inspire, interest me, or teach me something!
  • Then I  write a small paragraph or less on how it opened my mind, memories or thoughts or plan of actions or ideas that come into my head.
  • then I spend the rest of my week focusing on my monthly journal envelopes,
  • at the end of the moth I do my monthly review, add new pages to my envelopes for the next year and take a 30 min  self love mini celebration, to celebrate my monthly goals and accomplishments!

It really is a simple and fun way to experience gratitude and self love daily! it also is so customizable and self directed! I have learned so much about myself, my goal, and my dreams it blows my mind!

*added bonus, keep them and they can be a great tool for your children and family to learn in depth about you! or pass em down as a family heirloom!  I keep them, and reflect every new years eve, and repurpose pages that I really feel a connection to, then I add some to  our family binder, my scrapbook, or my homemade coffee table reader for my kids and guests to enjoy!

until next time!

happy , blessed, and love to you!!
