Sick Day Essentials

Happy Monday!

If you are reading this, I am happy and well. My husband and I BOTH caught the flu this past week and boy, was it a dozy! I haven't worked out in over a week and will probably be taking it easy for a while until I fully recover. I don't really have a ton to share, so here are some of my sick day essentials if you have a cold or the flu:

1. Cough drops

This is a must have to help smooth sore throats and relieve coughs.

2. Dayquil/Nyquil

This stuff just helps with all the things from headache to sore throat to congestion

3.Tissues!

Tissues are a necessity because your nose will probably 

be leaking like the kitchen sink. I always get the ones with lotion 

because they don't cause your nose to get all dry and chaffed. 

4. Tea

A hot cup of tea really helps when you have a sore throat or a bad cough. 

Echinacea tea is really great when you're sick, I highly recommend! 

You should avoid caffeinated drinks like coffee because can cause

you to become dehydrated! 

5. Chicken Noodle Soup

Nothing makes me feel better than a hot bowl of chicken noodle soup!

6. Netflix/Hulu/Youtube

You'll probably be doing lots of sleeping and laying in bed, 

so I'd definetly recommend a good

streaming service. You can get caught up on your favorite show, 

or finally watch that movie you have been meaning to see.

Here's to feeling better and recovering from the cold and/or flu! 

What are your sick day essentials?

What's in My Bag?

Can we all just admit for a hot minute that we all love seeing what is in other people's bags? Okay, cool. Glad we got that out of the way.

My mother got me a brand new handbag for my 28th birthday and have been dying to share with you guys!  I am so thankful for this birthday gift and will cherish it forever! This is my very first MK handbag! I am currently on the hunt for a new wallet because my current wallet is too big for this smaller bag! I always find these posts and videos fascinating and fun, since I am a handbag lover! You can also learn a lot about a person by what they are carrying around in their handbag!

Enjoy a look at new handbag!

First, to get started, this is the Michael Kors Mercer Medium Bonded-Leather Messenger. 

The bag has a padlock charm adding signature Michael Kors charm and elegance .

The bag has an open top and an interior pocket with zip.

The bag has my favorite, gorgeous silver hardware with adjustable shoulder strap.

It can be worn as a cross-body bag or held with the top handles.

So, what's on the inside?

* Ibuprofen and Excedrin for my headaches

*Kate Spade Card Holder for my ID and cards

*Emergen-C Drink Mix to fight off cold & flu

*Coach wristlet for my cash and coins

*Target pouch for extra rewards cards

*Headphone & chapstick in zip pocket

*Extra Polar Ice Gum

*My car and house keys

So, that’s what’s in my bag! What’s in your bag? I’m dying to know!
