Hi everyone! Sorry for being MIA as of late. So much going on with work and family stuff, so life is really lifing. As many of you know my mom was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. We found out it’s stage 1, so that’s great news! She gets a port put in on Monday 9th, so I’ll be taking her to the hospital for that. Then on Wednesday 11th, she’ll have her first chemo treatment. I’ll also be with her for that. Taking partial days off from my bank job. The plan is to do 2 months of chemotherapy, then surgery, followed by another 2 months of chemo. She’s in good spirits because family and friends have been reaching out with positive words of encouragement. Please check out my mom’s GoFundMe link below.

Some other bad news, on Monday 2nd, we got an eviction notice. The house is in my mom’s and late father’s name. Apparently they had given notice at the end of January, but mom never told me or the boys. She thought she could save the house. We have to be out by Tuesday 10th at 9am! So, we’ve been scrambling packing what’s most important. We’ll be having a yard sale on Saturday and Sunday to sell whatever we can. My mom will be staying with her brother temporarily because he lives close to where her treatments will be. The boys and I are staying in the area to stay close to our workplaces and the boys’ college. We’ll be staying with a friend until we find our own place. She’s letting us store whatever furniture and belongings we want in her empty basement. If anyone is in a position to help at all, any amount would be a blessing. Thank you in advance! ❤️🙏🏼

Hi everyone! I haven’t posted anything in almost 2 wks. Thought I’d fill you in. We received terrible news that my mom has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. She’s had several tests done, but we’re waiting on the results of one test to see what stage she’s in. I’m hoping they caught it early. Please keep my mom and our family in your prayers. I won’t be posting as much because I’ll be preoccupied with everything going on, but know that I appreciate each and every one of you that has supported my channel and has subscribed, liked, and commented on my videos.

Happy Veterans Day! Thank you to all who have served our country or are currently active duty. Today we honor you and all of the sacrifices you’ve made for our country. For those who don’t know, my grandpa (dad’s dad) was retired navy (was in WWII and the Korean War) and my dad was in the army and was in the Vietnam War. Much love. ❤️❤️❤️

I’m getting really serious about my health and finally losing around 95 lbs. I was very healthy and active in my youth and young adulthood, but after kids, not so much. I worked out here and there, but never consistently. I’ve tried pretty much every diet out there. They all work short term, but not sustainable. I had the most success with keto, losing 60 lbs., but again, not sustainable, at least for me. I will be starting a GLP-1 medication soon to help me with my weight loss. Starting with a 3 month program and we’ll see how it goes. Question for you all, should I create a separate playlist for my weight loss journey or create another channel documenting my journey, weigh-ins, what I’m eating, exercises I’m doing, etc.?

Thank you for helping me reach the next milestone of 4K watch hours! My channel is now monetized! Thank you for liking, commenting, and subscribing to my channel! I posted my first video on October 7, 2024. Made it in just over 10 months. Didn’t think I’d get monetized this fast, so thank you, thank you! I really appreciate each and every one of you! Best way you can support me and my channel now is to please watch the ads in my videos instead of skipping them. Much love, Dayna! ❤️

Hi Everyone! So, good news…..last night I got invited to apply to the YouTube Partner Program and create my AdSense account. I’m not quite at 1K subscribers yet and still need about 1K watch hours to get monetized. It takes around 1 month for YT to review everything, so I’m assuming they think I’ll reach those benchmarks by then? I’m just hoping to get there by my 1 yr anniversary on YT in October. If I get there sooner that’d be fantastic! Thank you to all who have subscribed, viewed, liked, and commented on my videos! I’m so appreciative of every one of you. I’m really enjoying the community that is growing here. God bless you all! 🙏🏼❤️😊
