All About This Sagittarius Stuff

When I first chose the name “The Savvy Sagittarius” for my blog, I just thought it was playful and cute. I wasn’t that deep into my horoscope, but I was beginning to learn. I follow a few horoscope sites on my social media and some days it is completely spot on.

Some days I am amazed with the personality that comes out of my horoscope. While I don’t really pay attention to a lot of the theories behind the horoscopes, I do think they are extremely inspirational. The daily posts are motivating and encouraging, especially when they are completely on point with what is going on in my everyday life.

Below are the traits for a Sagittarius based on ZodiacFire.com and Astrology Zodiac Signs.

Truest of all the Sagittarius statements that I have read,

“However, although she is wild, do not expect her to fall in love with you immediately. Once the Sagittarius woman does fall in love, she will be a loyal and caring partner. If you give her a reason to think a relationship with you is going to be difficult, she will simply walk out the door. The Sagittarius woman usually has multiple love affairs throughout her life, due to the fact that she will not settle for a relationship that makes her unhappy.”

Clutter is kind of a way of life. But what happens when you finally move most of your stuff out of your parents house and realize you have no place to put it? When you are moving and your find stuff that you haven't seen since you last moved? Here is my new journey towards getting rid of that stuff!

I come from a family with a mild case of hoarding. I love the sentimental things that I own. Clutter is kind of a way of life. But what happens when you finally move most of your stuff out of your parents house and realize you have no place to put it? When you are moving and your find stuff that you haven’t seen since you moved?

My mom will be the first to tell you how hard I am on her about all of the stuff we have accumulated since we moved into that house sixteen years ago.  When my grandma announced that we were having Thanksgiving at my mom’s house, I took it upon myself to use that as an excuse to clean their house. We started with the clutter in the kitchen closet, otherwise known as the “closet of doom.” The closet wasn’t necessarily as bad as I thought, but we found stuff from my childhood. My Easy Bake Oven was buried in the back of the closet. It was an adventure. An adventure that my mom even wrote about in the local paper.

After spending the holiday season helping my parents clean their house, I was amazed to come home and realize that I am slowly on the same path as my parents.

What Is a Millennial and Why Is It Such A Bad Thing?

What Is a Millennial and Why Is It Such A Bad Thing?

While I have read multiple different age and birth year ranges on a millennial, it is technically defined as anyone who was reaching young adulthood around the year 2000. So maybe I am a little farther behind than the actual millennial because I was in kindergarten in 2000, but I feel like people still apply the term to my generation as well.  I have read it as anyone born after 1992. The last I read was people born between 1980-1995. No matter the years, the negative connotations stay the same.

What is a millennial?

We are known for our safe spaces, participation trophies, selfie sticks, and our cell phones that must be “surgically removed” from our hands. We are better at figuring out technology than any other generation. Most of us can’t spell to save our life, thanks to spell check and autocorrect! Urban dictionary killed it with this definition of us!

While there are so many negative descriptions of us, but there are also a few positives that I think better describe some of us. Willing to work for what they want, technology savvy, the best work/life balance of any generation are just a few.

I have such a strong love for writing that has been nurtured by my love of reading that started at a very young age. It was fed from countless elementary teachers who continuously encouraged me to read anything and everything I could get my hands on. My love of writing was encouraged by my 7th grade English teacher.  She knew what I was capable of and never expected anything less of me.
