The Friday Five

The Friday Five | September Week 3

September 18, 2020

Hi, sweet friends. I haven’t shared a Friday Five in about a month, so it’s high time…

THE CHARITY

I’m going old school with this week’s charity. We’ve had a growing mound of items to donate – clothes, shoes, toys, home decor, etc – and my go-to donation places haven’t been accepting donations.

Good news! If you’re local – The (new-ish) Goodwill in Glenview across the street from Target is accepting donations. Yesterday, I loaded up the car (with kids and donations) and took a little trip.

It was SO easy and safe. I pulled up to the DONATIONS area on the side of the building. A guy came out with a bin and we unloaded my trunk. He gave me a receipt, and off we went.

We’ll be making monthly trips to donate.

This Friday Five features an old school charity, Goodwill, some Fall floral arrangements, Amazon home finds, and favorites under $50.

FALL STEMS

I have vases with various fall stems scattered throughout our home. It’s such an easy way to bring some fall inside. I was able to link most of the stems I’ve used. Some of them I found at Chalet nursery in Wilmette and HomeGoods, so I linked similar.

TARGET BOOTIES

I fell down the Target rabbit hole yesterday and was so impressed by their fall booties. These look almost exactly like boots in my closet from Nordstrom…

THE AMAZON HOME FIND

Another rabbit hole. (Yes, I spend a lot of time looking for good deals and finds to share with you guys.) Amazon has SO many quality throw pillows for such great prices. Here are just a few of my favorites…

Tomorrow I get to do something I’ve been wanting Tomorrow I get to do something I’ve been wanting to do for years. I will have a partial hysterectomy (leaving my ovaries). I’m 41 years old and it’s high time.  
 
I’ve lived with chronic uterine pain from fibroids for almost 20 years. It’s affected every part of my life, almost every single day. I’ve learned to deal with the pain and mitigate where I can. But still… 
 
We need to talk about fibroid pain. 
We need to talk about period pain.  
We need to talk about uterine pain. 
  
Most of all we need to listen to women when we say we’re in pain.  
 
Cramps HURT like hell. And while we’re strong enough to deal with the pain, maybe we’re just too damn tired to continue trying.  
 
And did you know? It’s called a “hysterectomy” because it was believed that women’s uteruses were making them hysterical.  
 
Let that sink in.  
 
I’m not hysterical.  
We’re not hysterical.  
We’re fucking warriors who have fought battles with our bodies.  
 
It’s time. 
♥️
