Ch- Ch- Changes!


I have been VERY inspired lately to make some serious changes.


1. Work

2. Life

3. Health

4. Emotional Health


So I start with work:


taking a MAJOR step back and re-evaluating things. I need to provide a better customer service, faster shipping, and better products. I have been so stressed with the money side of things and worrying about money that it's affected my customer service, ship time, and quality. To me, that is unacceptable.

There are so many greedy sellers out there who want all the sales. I was that awhile ago and it only gained me stress and emotional problems.


Life:


I am taking the weekends off now. I am getting back out there and meeting people. I am enjoying my life again. I am taking charge and look forward to new adventures, meeting fun new people, and learning to breathe again without heavy shoulders.


Health:


I am really making new changes to my health also. I have been working out 6-7 times a week and really watching my fat, calorie, and sugar intake. After every meal, I drink water and exercise. I do take many moments of my day to Hoop. It is such a calming exercise.

I have noticed a difference in tone, strength, energy level.


Emotional Health:


Taking time off of work, and exercising and really sticking to reducing what I eat helps my emotional side a lot. I still feel very much alone and suffocating in work. I think that by going out more, seeing more of life will really help me with that a lot.


The picture above has nothing to do with my post, I just really enjoyed it :)

World Hoop Day Giveaway

Today is turning out to be a disaster, not as planned. I am trying to remain positive and HOPE for the best.

But if my event doesn't get to happen the least I can do is mail hoops to those who need and want a Hoop.

Here is the listing for today:

If I am not able to have my own WHD then I will spend it gifting all my WHD Hoops randomly, on random places on the internet.

While this day has started not as planned, it will end happily because I say so!

More info coming soon! I am hoping to plan to be there from 12-5pm! I will have loads of hoops to giveaway, so please come and bring a hoop home!

Right now I am having a sale on Etsy and all my profits from the sales will go directly to making hoops for this event. It's a great time to get a professional product and donate to a wonderful Cause.

I was digging through some old videos and found a practice video of me and Ayden Hula Hooping.



The large hoop is made by the amazing Stephen of LED Creations:

Are you in the Circus?

When meeting people for the first time and after them either seeing what i do, or if I explain what I do, the most question often asked is, "Are you in the Circus?"

It's hard not to laugh, but nope, no circus for me here. ALTHOUGH, if I could be in the circus it would be something like this:

DUBSTEP CIRCUS, Canon 7D from Chris Hutchinson on Vimeo.

I like to watch this video over and over. It combines my love of Dubstep, Performance, and fire play. It takes a lot for me to watch a whole video. I just love these guys.

Beginnings


Well, I finally made it to the blog world. FINALLY!

Here I will write about my findings, loves, interests, my business and my family.

I am a parent of 3 boys and I own and operate my business: www.etsy.com/shop/HappyLoveHoops

Yes, I am in the business of Hula Hoops.
SO much more about that later. I am in love with what I do and it consumes all my loving energy :) I also create tutus, feather hair clips, and feather earrings. I soon hope to learn how to sew.
