Doing YOU WELL Wednesday #27...going back to the basics



an encouragement link up promoting community
Hi everyone! Welcome to another week of “Doing YOU WELL Wednesday”.  A “no rules” link-party. Where we meet up each week , “just because”. Just to say hi, just to check on one another, but most of all…just to show some “bloggy” love! Even though it is a “no rules” linky-party, it would be nice if you would follow your host…that would “me”, lol! And don’t worry, I’m a very cordial host….I ALWAYS follow back AND I love making new blogging friends!  


I would also like to thank everyone who
helped me "celebrate" my sweet mother’s life last week! I appreciate every thoughtful and kind word given!! This has been a week of anniversaries. Just realized that today marks the anniversary of the day we laid my sweet mother to rest. :(


Okay, you all know what to do! Link up any post you’d like, visit some other blogs in the link up and make some new blogging friends or catch up on some old ones!  Give them some encouragement and love and don’t forget to let them know you’re stopping by from “DYWW”! Before you go, make sure you leave a comment letting us know how you’ve been “doing yourself well”…we love celebrating with you!


Don’t forget to join me Friday for “Michell’s Weekly Pearl”. Until next week…love you guys and I call you blessed!

  1. Hi Michell,
    I've been focusing on getting more sleep this week. I've been so off schedule lately. That's what I've been doing well! Have a great Wednesday, and I'll be right here Friday for your Weekly Pearl.

    1. Hey Trinity!! Tell me about it! This summer has flown by way too fast and wasn't much of a vacation at all, lol! Kudos to you my friend...I'll have to take your lead and do the same! Thanks for linking up! Have a great Wednesday as well...see you on Friday! :-)

  2. I'm with Victory on getting more sleep. I know this is awful, but my goal is to get in bed BY 12:30 AM. I'm so bad about staying up late, but once I finally get the kids down - it's nice and quiet. {Sigh.} Also, I'm trying to do at least 10 minute free weight workouts 5x this week. Small steps make a big difference.

    Thanks for hosting!! XO

    1. That's too funny Meredith, because that's about the time I go to bed...and my kids aren't even young...go figure, lol! If I get in bed before 11:30...I'm up at 2:00am...IKR! I'll be cheering you on Meredith and yes, small steps DO make a difference! I'm trying to be consistent with my weighted hoola-hoop! I have to head over to Joi's site to get some encouragement in the exercising department...that girl is a beast, lol! Thanks for linking up my friend...have a lovely rest of your week! xoxo

  6. When you host with your spirit, we don't need rules! I have so many hands down DYWW connections! This link up is filled with good ppl! Kudos for attracting them & building your own community. I must make an effort this week to connect with some new DYWW ladies.

  16. It is wonderful to have such great memories of your mother. Some people don't have that kind of relationship in their lives. I know the memories surrounding her passing are hard, but you have all the great memories before that. I still miss my mom.

    Thanks for hosting!

  21. Hi Michell...So your Mom passed around her birthday? Last week you celebrated her birthday, this week her burial... You make her proud. Thanks for hosting this link up. I always find some awesome blogs through it.

    1. Hey Hope! No, her birthday is in February. I was just saying that we celebrated her birthday this year. Last Wednesday(July 31st) was the anniversary of when she went into the hospital and Friday(Aug. 2nd) was the anniversary of when she passed away suddenly. This Wednesday(Aug. 7th) was the anniversary of her homegoing service. I know, confusing right, lol! You think that's funny...I've got a whole list of 7(you know God's perfect number) facts that surround her birth and death. I knew she was special, lol! Thanks for stopping by Hope...have a wonderful weekend my friend! ;-)
