Pick Me Up Thursday!

Pick me up thursday sealGood morning y’all! I hope you have had a great week and you are looking forward to a fantastic weekend! I am thrilled that I do not work this weekend and hope to be able to sleep in and relax. For some reason, this week has been difficult for me. I think between stress, frustrations, and the non-stop changes in weather I just need some down time.almost Friday

In the past I used to tell myself to keep my expectations low, just to protect myself from unnecessary disappoints. I followed this belief for a really long time, but managed to start expecting way too much from people lately. Now I think to keep low-expectations of everyone is just the best way to live and to protect myself from hardships. This is why the quote I am sharing today has so much meaning to me, especially right now!martinlutherkingjr1-e1571877971222.jpg

Even though I am going to start having low-expectations of people, I will still hold on tight to hope. I do know how negative this might sound, but I do believe we all need to do what is best for ourselves.

Thank you so much for stopping by my site today. I hope you have a wonderful Friday you-say-thursday-i-say-friday-eve-have-a-tayzerific-10147394-e1554939166168Eve and your weekend is filled with much happiness! I am looking forward to reading your thoughts on the quote I shared. I know you will have amazing things to say and I promise to respond as quickly as I can! I am also so sorry that I am very behind on being able to comment on your brilliant posts, but will hopefully catch up this weekend! Please always remember that I am sending y’all LOTS of love ❤, comfort, and many positive vibes!

  1. I hope you get what you need over your weekend off. I unfortunately never get a weekend off unless I request for it.

    I always have my expectations high for the people close to me. I don’t think it is good for me either though because I like to keep their expectations of me low. That doesn’t work though because my boyfriend sets his high for me.

  2. I think that’s a very smart way to go, and it’s what I try to do too – keep my expectations low (and I’m also v.sceptical!) but always have hope for the best regardless, even if it’s just a little.
    Honestly, everything this past week has been going wrong. I was hoping, after the last two weeks of high stress and busy-nss, that this week would be a positive one. D’oh! I might just hibernate this weekend to avoid anything else going wrong 😂
    I bet you’re deeeeefinitely looking forward to a chilled weekend to relax and recuperate. I hope the end of your week goes well so you can do just that  ♥

    • Thank you Caz! It isn’t easy to do, but keeping expectations low for people saves us from being hurt and disappointed. I have set myself up for heartache too many times because I had high expectations for others. Over the past few months, I have been disappointed way too many times.
      I am planning to do nothing over the weekend. I will go grocery shopping because it has to be done and I want to go to Bath& Body Works. Other than that, I am going to hibernate over the weekend as much as I can! I hope your weekend is great! xxxx
