Inspire Me Monday Link-Up #45

August 10, 2015 by Amanda R DeWitt

Happy Monday! I’m actually quite happy it’s Monday because I worked all weekend at the café and now I get a little break..ha!

inspire me monday

As you probably know if you’ve been to an Inspire Me Monday link-up, you know I usually share a bit about my weekend, some things inspiring me and then invite you all to link-up and/or check out all of the amazingness that’s linked below!

Weekend Fun

Like I said…I worked a whole lot.

I worked at the café Saturday and Sunday. It was cray. As usual.

I worked on my new project, which is now live and I’m so excited!!

don't be afraid to be awesome via @theiLOVEblogger at theiloveproject.com w2

But, I’m really excited to say that after about three weeks of telling myself I would, I went to my first yoga class at my new gym!!

It was a beginner’s class (because let’s face it—I am a beginner at this point) and it was perfect! Super chill and focusing on the basics. I felt rejuvenated and all stretched out afterwards. Until I went to work—ha!

I even rewarded myself with a green smoothie afterwards. And an #awkwardselfie.
