How to Plan for a Successful 2020 Right Now

Successful 2020

Can you guys believe that the year is about to come to an end? 2020 is almost here! I remember so clearly what I was doing at the start of the year so to think back on that — then look at where I’m at today… wild. Ahh 2019. With the year coming to an end, a lot of us will be doing a lot of reflection and introspection.

VISITED: PINSTRIPES ON KIRBY

Yesterday was such a great day y’all. I bowled for the second time in my life and even won a game. I also chowed down on the yummiest chicken sandwich (that just might have put Popeyes AND Chick-fil-a to shame in my eyes). All the while tapping into great conversation. It was a dreamy afternoon if I must say so myself. The venue responsible for such a good vibes? Pinstripes on Kirby!

Happy Friday y’all! If you’re an OG member of the With Love, Thelms family then Being A Tourist In My City should sound pretty familiar. Last year around this time, I advocated for us babes to periodically become tourists in our own cities. Missed it? Catch up here.

In the blog post, I went on to chat about the benefits that come with exploring the city you’re from and how impactful doing so can be.

VISITED: LOCH BAR

Happy Monday you guys! You’re either one of two people on this Monday morning. The person fired up to get to the business and get things done. Or you’re the person still daydreaming about the weekend. Where are you at this morning? If you’re wondering what category I fall in, I’m definitely the latter. I am 100% dreaming about the weekend… still. After trying out Loch Bar, a restaurant in the River Oaks area for the first time and enjoying myself to no end just yesterday… can you really blame me?

TEXT MESSAGES MEN ABSOLUTELY HATE RECEIVING

text messages

Have you ever felt like text messages and texting someone you’re interested in is a lot like playing chess with Bobby Fisher (American chess grandmaster)? The funny thing about texting is that men always get the bad rep. They’re always considered the horrible texters. I can’t tell you how many times my girlfriends and I have roasted a guy for his lack of texting abilities. Like seriously, why would he even text that? Us ladies are so damn quick to shit talk guys when it comes to texting, but what about us? Couldn’t the same be said about us women? The answer is yes, it absolutely could. So keep reading as I explore the opinions I received from a multitude of guys I polled as I share text messages men absolutely hate receiving. Continue Reading
