Back in the Saddle - Check out my ETSY Shop!

It's been a while! I am starting my blog again, because it's 2023, and we have SURVIVED and will continue to SURVIVE from the last few years on this wild ride of a world we live in. I created my own ETSY Shop, and my first item is a flexible and forgiving Budget Planner called The Budget for Surviving Life! My ETSY Shop is called - you guessed it - The Ever Evolving Smith - because that is simply who I am. I evolve. I learn something new daily. How fun is that? We are here to not only survive, but grow, and thrive - and that is what we all dream of right? We share love and hope, laughs and tears, throw in a little sass (or throw up hands) sometimes, and do our best to enjoy the time we are given. Printables (instant downloads) are not my only plan with my lil' shop, but it is a great start. I love what I created and I will use it myself. I have spent some time brainstorming, and have jotted down tons of ideas. I don't know about you, but I literally get a natural high when I get in a brainstorming mindset, regardless if it is for my own benefit or if I am helping someone else. I do think it is my favorite thing to do!

Please take a moment to check out my ETSY Shop, and if you are so inclined, make a purchase, and put the budget planner to good use! It is a bit different from others I have seen. Enjoy!

Sorry, I’ve Got to Call Them Out

Sorry everyone, I have got to call out a group and I hate to do it but it’s time —> “some” Medical Professionals. I really do love you all, and there are so many things we couldn’t survive as a community without you, but there is this one thing I see pop up. It’s apathy for the non-exciting sports injuries. Two weeks ago yesterday, our youngest who is a freshman, was playing his beloved football game at school. Towards the very end of the game during the 4th quarter, our son made a great tackle, but he also took a knee to the center of his chest. You know, of course it was just right where the shoulder pads didn’t cover: in the center. He shook it off until the end of the game (this kid will play through most anything!) We iced him down and watched him overnight and by the next day the very bottom area of his sternum was incredibly swollen; it looked like a tennis ball was under his skin! However, Saturday that was all but gone but still the center of his sternum hurt. We iced...

Opportunities - Unlike toilet paper in 2020, they are not few...

My family is my WHY. Doing something good for the “big picture" in life it is more than just intrinsic value. We are designed to give and to receive, and it should come joyfully from the heart. It is humbling and empowering to know that Joy wrapped up in one little package can be so motivating. With that being said, doing good should be evident for yourself as well as those you work along side at work, at church, at home, or any given relationship. Life is short - tell others what they mean or risk them resolving to their own ideas of what they mean to you. It's in our nature. Giving praise where praise is due is fundamental in knowing how we have done, and that we are valued. It shapes our experiences. Without it we will always flounder about and come to our own conclusions, no matter how ridiculous they may be. Doing something good for others extends past your reflective talking points, pushes you past your routine, and is something each of us crave as humans. Life is flui...
