Way To Go Wednesday!

|

For today’s post I decided to cover a topic where I have been slacking.  Today I’m shouting out people who I am proud of and who inspire me for Way To Go Wednesday.  I used to be really good about celebrating my friends, family, fellow bloggers, etc every Wednesday on Facebook.  Lately my presence on Facebook has been decreasing and right along with it my Way to Go Wednesday shout outs. ** Side noted, I miss the days when my Facebook timeline was full of jokes, inspiring quotes, pictures of my friends kids and other happy things.  Lately it has been less than joyful, hence the decrease in my presence there**  So back to Way to Go Wednesday, I need to get back spreading joy and shouting out my friends.

Without further ado, today I’m saying way to go to….

D7ana  – Way to go Dana for leaving me one of the most thoughtful and encouraging comments on my blog post about becoming a single mom.  This is one of the biggest, scariest, and what I expect to be best decisions of my life.  I would be dishonest to say that I don’t have doubts.  Dana’s comment was exactly what I needed and it was right on time.  Dana blogs at A Philly Collector of Playscale Dolls and Action Figures

My mom – Way to go to my mom for being awesome and supporting me in the things that are important to me.  This means so much especially because she is not one of those mom’s who gives false praise or encourages things just for the sake of encouragement.  It means a lot to have her in my corner.

Janelle – Way to go to Janelle for climbing 100 flights of stairs in support of the American Lung Association.  Janelle normally inspires with her regular posts about training or various races.  However 100 flights was even outside of her normal comfort zone.  She had not trained or it but still successfully completed all of the flights in support of the cause.  Janelle blogs at Run With No Regrets.

Way To Go Guys!!!

If you want to publicly acknowledge someone feel free to tell them way to go on the Chasing Joy FB Page.

Bring a little Joy to someones day.  Tell them way to go.  Who do you want to say way to go to?

It May Be Hard, But Joy Will Make It Worth It

|

Did you see Friday’s blog post on my decision to use a sperm donor to get pregnant?  It was scary for me to publish that post because I know that not everyone would agree with my choice.  As much as I ‘d like to say I don’t care what others think, its just not true.  While other people’s opinions don’t dictate my choices and decisions, I have to admit that it feels so much better when everyone approves. I know not everyone approves of single motherhood (by choice or otherwise), sperm donors, or non-traditional families.  So I know not everyone will have positive feedback on my post.  So far I have not gotten any negative feed back.  I did get one comment on how hard it is to be a parent and that it is harder without a dad.  That comment got me thinking about how most things in life worth having or accomplishing are not easy.  So, in that spirit today’s blog post is all about things that are hard but are worth it.

  1. Chasing Joy – Writing this blog is not easy.  When I first started it I was trying to find a way out of a very dark place.  What if if did not work? What if writing about wanting to be happy made me feel more depressed?  The blog was a secret at first, one I only shared with my mom and a couple of friends. Over the years I have gone from anonymous to telling everyone I know including my employer.  All of the really good blog posts (the ones that require me to be vulnerable and the ones that resonate with people) come with a huge feeling of fear when it’s time to hit publish.  When I look at my Analytics and feel frustrated with my page views, bounce rate, etc.. blogging feels hard. However, writing Chasing Joy worked. I am way happier now than I was then. When someone comments thanking me for words of encouragement or says they feel the same as me on an issue I feel connected. I feel fulfilled. Chasing Joy is hard, but the Joy it gives makes it worth it.
  2. Losing Weight – I have been overweight most of my life.  I put on weight in 5th grade and have been fighting to lose it since then.  It is hard to crave sugar, fried foods, bread, and other things that immediately go to my hips.  It is hard to move 200 plus pounds to on a treadmill, or to Zumba rhythms. It is hard to turn down food offered at work or not get second helpings.  But It is also hard to only be able to shop in Lane Bryant, Torrid, and Ashley Stewart when shopping.  It’s also hard to not love what you see in the mirror even when you love the person looking back at you in the mirror.  I have lost weight a few times which makes me encouraged to lose weight again.  Going up or down stairs without pain, shopping in any store I want, feeling sexy and curvy will make it worth it.  Losing weight is hard but the Joy of feeling better about myself and being healthier make it worth it.  
  3. Relationships – Oh boy, relationships can be hard. It does not matter if it is a relationship with your significant other, parent, child, friend, or sibling there will be times when it is hard.  You have to compromise. You will not get your way. You have to put their needs ahead of your own. You have to open your heart and be vulnerable.  At times you will feel taken advantage of, unappreciated, and left out.  However, relationships allow you to feel connected and love.  They bring birthday, holiday, and other types of celebrations.  They give you others to count on,  make you feel protected, and like you are not alone.  Relationships are hard but the Joy they bring makes them worth it. 
I could go on and on listing things that are hard but worth it; Practicing your faith, getting your education, applying for promotions, following your passions and dreams, etc…  It truly does seem like the things that bring the most joy in life require you to step out of your comfort zone and do hard things.  I am not yet a mom so I will not assume that I know what it is like. I can only assume that motherhood like other things that can bring great joy will also include it’s fair share of hardship.
What are some really hard things that you have done?  Was it worth the hardship? Are you glad you did it? 

Chasing Joy at Be Beautiful Expo 2015

|

I don’t typically have themed weeks on the blog but this week seems to be one.  This week I’m writing about Philly Events.  This past weekend I attended the Philadelphia Flower Show and next weekend, on Saturday, I’ll be attending Be Beautiful Expo 2015.  I will tell you about the Philadelphia Flower Show on Wednesday.  Today I want to tell you about the Expo so that you have plenty of time to purchase your tickets and make plans to attend.

The Be Beautiful Expo 2015 is a spin-off of the Inspiration and Music Conference.  I attended the Inspiration and Music Conference a couple of years ago with my brother and had a great time. I am sure the Expo will be no different.  This time I am going with one of my girlfriends instead of my brother.  

The Be Beautiful Expo is a family friendly event.  There will include over 100 vendors and small businesses selling unique items and services. There will be themed pavilions covering a variety of topics including the Kid’s Zone, Keystone Health and Wellness pavilion, Fashion and Women’s pavilions, Celebrity Selfie and Autograph Booths and the ManCAVE. There is something for everyone.  If you are a Google Plus fan, you can visit the Google Hangout Suite, hosted by Charlie Mack, and come face-to-face with some of your favorite celebrities. Oh, and speaking of celebrities there will also be a main stage with performances by Big Daddy Kane, MC Lyte, Total, Dorinda Clark-Cole, and Vashawn Mitchell. Laz Alonso will also be in the building hosting a panel discussion.  

The Be Beautiful Expo sounds like a really good time.  I’m excited to be covering the conference as press (getting a press pass is always so exciting) because I was drawn to the event right away when I heard the title.  All of us want to feel and Be Beautiful, right?  I am looking forward to a fun, inspiring, and joyful good time on Saturday March 14th.  Get your tickets now for only $25 and join me at the Expo.

Will you be going to the Be Beautiful Expo?  What are you looking forward to the most shopping at the  vendor booths, visiting the different pavilions, being on celebrity watch, or the performances?

I hope to see you there.

#FlashbackFriday Hunt For Joyful Images & Pinterest Project Updates

|

It’s Fridddaaayyyy!!!!!!  That means it is #FlashbackFriday and time for this weeks Pinterest Project update.

First up, #FlashbackFriday!  #FlashbackFriday is a blogger link up. Every Friday on Chasing Joy we flash back to some of our older posts to give them a moment in the spotlight. It’s fun and a good way to increase blog traffic, find new blogs to read, and new readers for your blog. Pick any older post from your blog and add it below. You can also increase blog traffic by sharing your post on the Chasing Joy Facebook page and on Twitter using the hashtag #FlashbackFriday. Also, I will Pin your post to the new #FlashbackFirday Pinterest Board.

** Please Note** Linkys only work when everyone plays fair. Be sure to visit at least two other blogs from the link up and leave a comment. Pick any two you like or keep it simple and visit the two blogs linked up before yours. If you link up early be sure to come back and visit blogs that linked up after you.

This week I am linking up The Hunt For Joyful Images.  This was an online scavenger hunt game that we played on the blog a few years ago. It was fun for me to see the images using the word Joy.

My favorite post from last week’s linky is How to Work a New Year’s Resolution: Organizing a Doll Collection, Part 1 . I really enjoy reading about Dana’s doll collections.  I loved my dolls as a kid.  I still have all of my Cabbage Patch Kids in my basement.  🙂

Now it is your turn. Add your link below.

OK, now for your Pinterest Project Update!  The Pinterest Project is a year long project where I will bring a Pin to life.  Every week for 2015 I will take at least one Pin and attempt to include it in my real life. This week I only did 1 Pin.  I have on my to do list for this year to come up with some Joyful Affirmations.  However I have had writers block when it comes to writing my own.  Sometime ago I had Pinned  10 Things You Must Tell Yourself Today by Marc.  I decided to say all 10 as affirmations this week.

 I set the alarm on my phone to go off 3 “I am priceless in someones eyes”.  That line really makes me think of my dad who truly thought I was priceless. I have enjoyed these affirmations this week.

times a day as a reminder to say the affirmations. The alarm has been essential because I would not remember on my own.  I have to say when my phone would vibrate I would automatically smile when I saw that it was my affirmations reminder.  I know affirmations take a long time to really show a change in your outlook, however I do feel good saying the affirmations and I always smile when I say

I’d say this one is a Pinterest Win!!!

Make sure you are following the Pinterest Project Board on Pinterest to see what Pin’s work and what Pin’s don’t work.

What are you linking up this week and what have you been Pinning?

Happy Birthday Chasing Joy: 5 Things I’ve Learned In 5 Years Of Blogging

|

Chasing Joy, It’s Your Birthday! Chasing Joy, It’s Your Birthday!

That’s right this blog has had a birthday aka a blogaversary!  On January 31st 2009, 5 years ago I hit publish on my very 1st blog post.  I really cannot believe how quickly time has passed.  I cannot believe how different I feel.  I was so unbelievable sad.  After losing my dad a few months earlier I had just broken up with the man I thought I would marry.  I was so heartbroken and depressed I had to convince myself to get out of bed each day.  Today I have sad moments of course but other than feeling sleepy from getting up early for work I awake feeling good about facing the day.  I started writing about happiness and joy in hope that I’d start to feel that way again.  It worked!

Over these last 5 years I have had some great experiences like hosting the Chasing Joy Brunch & Learn, supporting charities through the Joy of Giving, and attending Blog Conferences.  But that is not what I am writing about today.  Today, for this Birthday/Blogaversary post I want to talk about 5 things that I have learned writing Chasing Joy these last 5 years.

  1. I can stick with something.  I do not really think of myself as a quitter, however when I look back over my life there are many unfinished projects and goals not accomplished.  I have joked with friends who like to knit or crochet that I have never completed a project.  Before starting this blog I’d attempted to write about 4 different books. Sticking with this blog for 5 years gives me confidence that I can stick with things.  When something is both my priority and fulfills my purpose I won’t walk away.  This can be an aspect of my character that I can be proud of.  Now there have definitely been moments when I did not feel like staying up late writing a post or when I was not updating the blog as often as i should.  I remember in the early days of the blog, after a few weeks with no new post getting a text from my cousin that said what’s up with your blog.  That text plus learning about the importance of posting on schedule at Blogalicious got me back on track.  I don’t think there has been a week since when there was not new content on Chasing Joy every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
  2. Others can benefit from my challenges/ short comings.  Over the last few years I have written a few blog posts that revealed my vulnerable side.  These are the blog posts that I second guest before hitting publish.  Is this to much information? What will the people who know me in real life think? These posts where I admit (news flash) that I am not perfect without a doubt end up being the blog posts that hit home with someone who was feeling the same way or going through a similar experience.  Several times over the years I have received a comment, email, or even had someone tell me in person how much my post spoke to them or how it helped them feel better about their situations.  This feedback has kept me going. My blog is not huge, and the funny thing is it is just when I feel like I’m talking to myself that I get this type of feedback.  
  3. One person can make a difference.  I am a pretty generous person.  I like to give gifts.  I donate to charity through work. One thing that I have noticed when it comes to being generous or charitable is that most people are both of those things when you make it easy.  Through Chasing Joy I have had a platform that has made it pretty easy for people to give.  With some effort from me I have hosted, and participated in several charity events. Chasing joy events provided clothes to women transition from welfare to work and household items to people battling cancer.   One blogger facilitated the charity of many who’s generosity touched many more.  One person can make a difference.  
  4. When you follow your own path others may feel threatened by your independence.  Now since this blog is Chasing Joy I try to not go to negative with my posts.  However, I have joked with friends that I guess I’m a real blogger now since I have experienced cliques and haters.  I’ve never been a follower.  Internally I struggle with authority and am instantly turned off by being told I must do or have to do anything.  Well there are lots of very successful bloggers and groups in the blogaspher and any smart blogger will learn from them, benchmark and adapt certain strategies that are applicable.  Any smart blogger will also determine what will not work for them and their blog.  Well in the process of learning, adopting some strategies, and doing other things my way I got some really negative feedback on how I should be doing things a certain way, specifically their way.  I was even told  that my blog would fail. Well, here we are celebrating 5 years of Chasing Joy. I am not saying that my way is always the right way.  But I do know that following my own path leaves me fulfilled and their is no failure in that. 
  5. People love free stuff.  Now of course I knew this prior to blogging.  But blogging has definitely reinforced this fact.  I have one giveaways form other bloggers before and it is exciting.  For that reason and in honor of Chasing Joy’s 5th birthday I have some free stuff for you.  OK, not all of you.  Two of you will win a $15 Starbucks’ gift card.  But all of you can enter the giveaway.  Start out by leaving a Chasing Joy Birthday shout out in the comments below.  Then fill out the rest of the entries using the Rafflecopter form below.

I Forgot How To Eat

|

Today I am having pizza for breakfast.  No not some healthy sort of pizza.  It’s a regular old $5 Little Caesar’s pizza.  It’s left over from last night. I got it because it was cheap, fast, on my way home, and I had no food at home.  I’ll be headed to the supermarket soon, but I really don’t know what to buy.

The first time I knew I had a weight problem I was around 12.  The pediatrician told my mom I should lose weight. I remember it was spring or summer and my mom started making me cucumbers in vinaigrette she also worked out with me to some aerobics videos.  However, we still continued to buy Tastekakes and snack cakes every day.  My dad thought I just needed to run then I could eat whatever I wanted.  Clearly we really did not know what we were doing in terms of eating healthy.

Fast forward to age 23,  I started my 1st organized weight loss program.  It was weight watchers at home program followed by Weight Watchers online when I got a computer.  It was a success (lost 50lbs in about a year) kept it off a little while then it slowly inched back up. Since then I’ve tried, counting calories with various groups, cutting carbs, Nutrisystem, Metabolife, Herbalife, Weight Watchers several more times (with no where near the results as the 1st time), therapy, and even hypnosis for weight loss.  Yet here I am back at my high weight.

 In the process of all of this I feel like I have forgotten how to eat.  I don’t even remember how I used to eat 11 years ago before I started actively trying to lose weight and when I was about 25lbs lighter than I am right now.  I cannot help but to wonder if I would be lighter right now If I’d have never tried to lose weight???  I’ll never know.

Now I am not giving up by any means.  I’m not a quitter.  Plus I have a new incentive of wanting to be healthier so that I can have a baby and have a healthy pregnancy.  I just feel like I don’t really know what to eat.  I like my action plan of more veggies and 1 fruit a day.  However, my inability to find a eating plan that is sustainable makes me feel like I have no clue what to buy.  I have stopped buying a lot of things that are quick and fast and not so healthy like, pot pies, frozen pizza, pizza rolls, etc…But then, not having anything quick and fast leads me to the $5 pizza.  I have thrown away so many fresh fruit and veggies over the years and as recent as 2 weeks ago when I tried to make a weeks worth of jar salads ahead of time (day 1 good, day 2 barely OK, days 3 and 4 trash) .

I know I need to eat more veggies, drink more water, and avoid sugar, white carbs, trans and saturated fats.  But exactly how does this translate to my shopping list in a way where I enjoy eating my food and don’t waste a lot of money?  Part of me wonders is it me, that I just don’t stick with it long enough for it to feel normal and to not feel deprived????  I hate to get into that kind of “there’s something wrong with me” kind of thinking.

Losing weight is hard.  Changing your diet is hard.  Being healthy is worth it.

So tell me, what’s on your shopping list?  What are some of your normal go to healthy meals?

The Worst And Best Of The Weekend

|

My friend Chrystina from ChrystinaNoel.com has a link up on Fridays.  I normally don’t participate because I am busy with my own weekly #FlashbackFriday link up.   Fortunately and unfortunately the events of this past weekend provided the perfect content for me to join in Chrystina’s link up.

Chrystina’s link up is called 1 down 1 up.  The writing prompt for the link-up is to discuss the worst and best things to happen to you this week.  The hashtag is #1down1up.

This weekend i definitely had a 1 down and 1 up.

1 Down
I’ll start with the bad news.  This weekend my cat Pinto passed away.  She was actually my dad’s cat.  I wrote the following tribute to her online.

RIP to my dad’s loyal cat Pinto. He picked her out over 14 years ago. He named her pinto after the Pinto Stallion variety of horses. He wanted her all to himself stating only he’d be allowed to feed her because she was “his cat”. She remained loyal to him even after he died. She grieved for him noticeable even losing some fur.

She eventualy learned to tolerate me and my mom. Allowing us to tend to her. Acknowledging us with eye rolls and sharp meows for food that could only be translated as “food now damn it” Lol. She did allow me to put a St. Patrick’s day hat on her once for my birthday and also learned to tolerate the other furry family members who came after her.

She will be missed. I’ll imagine her sitting beside my dad in heaven along with Hurt getting head rubs. Back with her person. The one she picked out over 14 years ago.
RIP Pinto.

1 Up
I love dressing up. I like to put on a beautiful dress and have my hair done, kick my makeup up a notch, grab a sparkly clutch and some jewelry and head out. It just so happens that I clean up pretty well and enjoy the transformation. I also happen to like dressing up in costume.  Wearing a wig and an outfit that’s outside of my normal repertoire is exciting.

I think I love dressing up and dressing in costume so much because it allows me to show another side of myself. Not a hidden side just a side that I don’t often have a chance to display.  People tend to have a view of me that is far more conservative and shy than i truly am. I enjoy shaking that view up a bit.

This weekend i had the chance to both dress up and in costume. I was invited to a 1920s themed party.  I was not sure what to wear at first but I lucked out and found a cute dress, gloves,  a head band, hair clip, and wig to transform me into a 1920s version of myself. I even Googled1920s makeup, went heavier on the blush than normal am managed to finally get the smokey eye right.  I had a great time in my ensemble  and am even reconsidering my “I don’t wear wigs”.

I enjoyed participating in the #1Down1Up linky.  It reminds us that nothing is all bad. Even when we have really bad experiences there is often something else happening that can give us a reason to smile and find some Joy.

How was your weekend?  I hope it was heavy on the 1 ups and light on the 1 downs and that you were able to find some joy.

Chasing Joy in Church

|

I have been to church 2 times in the last 3 weeks.  That is huge for me.  I have had issues with church since I was a teenager.  The ironic thing is I don’t have any issues with God or my Faith just the act of going to church.  I have always felt out of place, like I’d be judged, and like being myself was would not be good enough.  I’d sit in the pew anticipating the end of the service instead of enjoying it and then feeling guilty that I was not enjoying it like everyone else.  You see, issues, lots and lots of issues with being at church.

I listed visit a new church as one of my 35 for 35 goals.  So 3 weeks ago, with the assistance of my cat who wanted me to wake up at 8:30 AM, I visited Epic.  My cousin had mentioned it to me.  She understood my church issues and had gotten good feedback from one of her friends about Epic. My first visit was a good one.  It was casual, young, and welcoming without being pushy.  There was encouragement to return, get baptized, and participate in church activities but there was no hard sell or guilt trip.  Yesterday was my 2nd visit and it was equally as good.  This time I remembered to bring my bible so that I could read along with whatever scriptures were mentioned during the service. (My dad advised me to always do this.  Never blindly follow a religious leader. Read for yourself).  Epic passed my scripture test plus had me laughing during the sermon.  The big bonus for me was when Some Biggie Smalls Lyrics were referenced in a joke that supported the pastors message that having more money and more things will not make us happier, Mo Money, Mo Problems.  

I will share with you my two big takeaways from my two visits.

When faced with limited time when you have to cut some activities.  Cut the ones that someone else can do.  Keep the ones that you and only you can do.  Only you can be your kids parents, your partner’s spouse, your parent’s child, your brother or sister’s sibling.  These are the areas to focus on when time is limited.

You are dong better than you think and God is doing more than you think.  So often I fell overwhelmed and upset that things are not going exactly how I want or how I think they should be going.  It is a good reminder that things usually are not as bad as we think and that God is always doing so  much behind the scenes.  

Hopefully I will continue to have good church going experiences as I would really like to be able to worship with others and maybe even make some new like minded friends. I will keep you all updated about my church experiences and hopefully share some more joyful takeaways from service.

Have you ever struggled with church?  Do you attend regularly? If so what do you like most about your church? 

Avoid Falling Into A Funk During Rough Times. Think About The Best Days Of Your Life.

|

I have been having a really rough few weeks.  My mom who has an ongoing illness has been in and out of the hospital a lot and just feeling really crappy even while at home.  It’s so hard to watch someone you love go through difficulties.  

It would be so easy for me to fall into a funk right now but I really want to ward that off. So I am going to focus on the phrase this too shall pass, remembering all of the times God has come through for me, and sharing a few of the best days of my life.

In no particular order:

  • Going to see Oprah’s Life You Want Tour.  What an amazing experience it left me smiling for days.  Read about it here.  
  • Driving home on my 1st car (that im still driving) 9 years ago. I’d researched it, picked it out and financed it all by myself.   My dad went with me and he was just as excited and proud of me as I was. 
  • The day my ex surprised me with roses at work and latter told me he had put money on an engagement ring.  Things did not work out with us but it was such a great feeling to feel loved and confident in having a partner to go through life with.   I look forward to experiencing that again when I find my Mr. Joy Chaser.
  • My college graduation from Temple University.  I felt so proud of myself and excited about my future.
  • My high school senior proms.  These were the first times I got a glimpse of myself as an attractice and maybe even sexy woman. 

 There were many other joyful days in my life. These are a few of the best.  Despite being worried about my mom I am smilong as I type this.  During tough times remembering our best days can help us stay hopeful and positive.

What are some of the best days of your life?
