Mask before me

July 6, 2020 By hautegreyfox 2 Comments

This mask life isn’t anything new for me, y’all. I take this pandemic seriously. However, it’s important to join the voices to share the importance of wearing face coverings. With our call to love our neighbors, live this out by wearing a mask. It’s a simple step that can make a big difference in slowing the spread of COVID-19.

Before I move forward, I want to lift up an amazing designer; she was kind enough to pass along one of her fabulous masks. Her name is Cynthia Lawson. She goes by @2chicdesigns on Instagram. I’ve been wearing her design, and I hope she can help you out, too.

Our society makes it easy to keep things self-centered. I challenge you to move away from that way of thinking. Look around, COVID-19 is taking lives. Loved ones are passing away alone. Families are forced to grieve in isolation. For people who have survived, they, too, share the lasting impacts of this virus.

Do it the right way

Skip over your discomfort or what you consider to be an inconvenience. Instead, look at the lives lost. Then, consider the many more lives that will be lost if we don’t confront this virus together.

The CDC has some helpful guidance on why it’s important to wear a mask and how to safely wear face coverings. Here are a few quick reminders:

• Make sure you’re covering your mouth and nose; secure your face covering under your chin.

• Aim to have your mask fit snugly around the sides of your face.

• Wash your face covering after each use.

Don’t let your mask be your only defense, though. Continue to practice social distancing and wash your hands often. A small gathering or a night out with friends is not worth the weight of potentially getting the virus or unknowingly passing it along to others.

I understand that we’re tired. Hold on a little longer, please.

Fashion your mask

For me, a mask is another accessory. I’m going to make this thing work, y’all. What are you doing? Let me know in the comments section.

• Do you have multiple masks?

• Do you have certain masks for different occasions?

• Have you bought masks to match an outfit?

• Do you have friends who make masks?

    I love that Cynthia is designing face masks as well as her beautiful bags!

    I do have a friend who made masks for me and my family which I love and CHERISH so much.

    I wish everyone would do their part stop slow down the coronavirus and wear a mask!
    This isn’t about our civil liberties to decide not to wear a mask, but our civic duty to wear one as americans!

This spring feels different. Last spring was the s This spring feels different. Last spring was the start of something that we couldn’t have imagined. Today, I’m fully vaccinated, and what a fitting season to pursue a time of renewal. Over the past year, I fell in love with gardening all over. So, I’m spending a lot more time in my yard. It’s therapy.
 
My garden welcomed me with open arms as I began to feel so far away from friends and family during the extended period of social distancing. All it needed was love.
 
It’s a privilege to celebrate another year of spring. What feels different for you this season?

Thank y’all so much for the encouragement on my Thank y’all so much for the encouragement on my previous post.  I have been using Elidel for one  week—the peeling has slowed tremendously and the moisture is starting to return to my skin.  I use a darker foundation to cover the hyperpigmentation and an SPF45 tinted moisturizer.  I also wear a hat when I’m outside to protect my skin.  Y’all know I’m obsessed with hats and I love it when I find  gorgeous hats that fit properly on my larger than normal head 😬 I purchased this beauty last year from @byvladainsta - ya’ll have to check her out because she is so super talented and makes the most gorgeous hats.  Hope your week if off to an amazing start.

Do you know what I love about my Insta family? Y’all really do check in on me. I haven’t posted in a bit, and I’ve received DMs just to say “hey, are you doing OK?” That means so much to me.
 
To keep it short, photos have taken a backseat for a bit — and my skin health has hopped in the driver’s seat. What started as a small dry patch by my temple eventually spread to my entire face. There are so many things that can affect our skin, and I’m still trying to figure it out.
 
Most recently, I had a chance to get an appointment with my dermatologist. Our faces don’t define us, but our health is important. Thanks for your patience as I figure this out.
 
I’ll keep you posted as I protect my skin and just give it a rest. Has anyone experienced this before? I’d love to hear what helped.

Wednesday Words of Wisdom - a beautiful life— M Wednesday Words of Wisdom -  a beautiful life— Make each day your own beautiful work of art.  Take time to do things that inspire you before you get started with your day.  Take a walk outside to simply be with the sun as it rises; let its boundless glow inspire you and fill you with warmth.  Read a few pages of a book that fills you with light.  Hug your love ones or play with your puppy for a few extra minutes.  And as you go about your day, remember that there is magic all around you—even if some days it’s harder to find...And at the end of your day, take a moment as you rest your head on your pillow to find gratitude for all the wonderful things you experienced and created throughout your day.  Because even if this day wasn’t extraordinary, even if this day was an average one, it plays a part in your beautiful life, and that’s something to be wonderfully grateful for —by #nikkibanas | Walk the earth

Wednesday Words of Wisdom - HAPPY Be happy on pur Wednesday Words of Wisdom - HAPPY

Be happy on purpose.  Look for the rainbow when it’s raining.  Find the hope even when it’s bleak.  Choose forgiveness even when bitterness is easier.  Chose love even it feels impossible.  Make it a habit to choose joy as much as you possibly can because life isn’t meant to be lived in disappointment or frustration.  It’s means to be lived laughing so hard your stomach hurts.  It’s meant to be filled with soft moments of love.  It’s meant to be filled with tight hugs that last for minutes.  Life is meant to be lived happy. - #walktheearthquotes

A year ago today I was in beautiful Mexico @thefiv A year ago today I was in beautiful Mexico @thefivesbeachhotel wearing this gorgeous @freepeople dress surrounded by family and close friends — a day away from witnessing my  my son marry the love of his life.  Shortly after our return to the states NC was shut down by the pandemic.  Looking back  I realize that 2020 has taught me some valuable lessons.  I’ll share a few...
.
.
.
1.  Find happiness in simple things.
2.  Who I surround myself with directly impacts the quality of my life (positively or negatively) sounds cliche but birds of a feather... 
3.  Actions reveal more than words. 
5.  Never stop learning.
6.  I am more capable than my doubts.
7.  Stay humble and nonjudgemental. 
8.  Beautiful relationships are the key to an amazing life - never be afraid to walk away from someone who does not value you.
9.  Kindness always wins.
10.  Be authentic. 
.
.
What has 2020 taught you?
