Weekly Features & Blog Awards!

Hi everyone, it’s Sunday again so that means it’s time for the weekly roundup and time for me to pass around a few blog awards! :)

Thank you to the following blogs for featuring me this past week!  So exciting!

Tatertots and Jello

Bargain Shopping Paradise

Woot woot!!

Now for the awards…

I received the Versatile Blogger Award from T-Bird at Nestled in Rosenberg.  Thank you T-Bird I love you!!  T-Bird is my Sister-in-Law people!  We live right by each other and she’s such a blessing, and has a great blog!

Before I can officially accept this award I have to list 7 things about me that you all may not know.

1. I am a makeup junkie (specifically Bare Minerals).

2. I think Cream of Mushroom soup makes everything taste better.

3. I like the way skunk smells.  Totally serious.

4. I also like the way perm smells.  What is wrong with me??

5. I was a paralegal for 8 years right out of high school.  Then I was able to quit and stay at home!

6. I LOVE playing tennis.  I played in jr. high and high school.  I hope to get back out on the court one day.

7. I am terrified of roaches.  I know I’ve said this before in a post, but I just had to make it known again.  TERRIFIED!

So there you have it!  Seven fun facts you may or may not have known about me. :)

Now I get to pass this award on to some other fabulous blogs.  If you haven’t been to their site go and check them out!

Red Letter Rising

Blue Artichoke Interiors

Impatiently Praying for Patience

Decorating Addiction

Going a Little Coastal

Melissa’s Heart and Home

I am going to pass this award on to Nancy at Nancy’s Tidbits.  I love reading her blog and the great ideas she has, and she is just a kind-hearted person.  :)

So there you have it ladies!  Congratulations on your awards and now you get to pass them on to other fellow bloggers!

    Hey!
    Yea, I don’t typically do the award thing mainly because so many others don’t and it’s hard for me to pass them along. But how could I not accept that very sweet and kind award from you?!?! Thank you! I appreciate it so much!

    Hugs,
    Nancy

    Emily,
    Thanks so much for the sweet award. I will try to think of seven things people would want to know about me while I finish an outdoor bench makeover project this afternoon. You’re such a sweetheart!

    Emily you have me laughing so hard at your cute answers. First about the smells and then the roaches. OMG! Me too! I am terrified as well. I think that is why I clean so much. Ewwww…just the thought of a roach makes me sick. I’m origionally from Florida and of course they are the size of small cars AND they fly. Ugh.

    Thank you for the precious award! You are very kind to have thought of me for it. I really appreciate it my friend.

    Have a wonderful night. ~Melissa :)

    • Decorchick! says

      June 27, 2010 at 11:55 pm

      HAHA, the size of small cars. Yep, that about sums it up. I guess that’s the size of them in our heads. They fly here too…ughh!!

      You are certainly welcome. It was my pleasure!!

  8. Melissa Miller says

    June 27, 2010 at 9:32 pm

    Thank you very much Emily! I really appreciate you thinking of me for this sweet award. You are very kind.

    I laughed out loud at your funny answers about the smells. I hear you about roaches. OMGoodness! Me too! I am terrified of them as well…Ugh.

  9. Amanda@The Hand Me Down House says

    June 28, 2010 at 7:52 am

    Awww — well thank you! That is just too sweet of you! I loved reading your random facts (although the skunk smell thing was a little weird!!) — I was a paralegal right out of HS for 5 years too — funny!

    June 30, 2010 at 7:54 am

    Emily, Thank you so much for the award! I saw this late the other night and then forgot all about thanking so. So embarrassed! I am honored. You’re answers were so funny. But skunk? Really? We should call you Pepe Le Peu! Oh gosh, does anyone remember Pepe, or am I that old?? I’m right with you on the roaches thing. And I live in FL where they fly! Palmetto bugs really, but still!

    Suzanne had also send it to me so here are my answers if you care to take a look. http://goingalittlecoastal.blogspot.com/2010/05/id-like-to-thank-academy.html

    • Decorchick! says

      June 30, 2010 at 1:26 pm

      Anita no worries!! Yes, I know I am weird.

      Great, I’ll go take a looksy at your answers! :)

Hey, I’m Emily – and if it’s been a while, w Hey, I’m Emily – and if it’s been a while, welcome (back)!🤗

A lot has changed in the past few years—personally, emotionally, and spiritually. I’ve been through some heavy seasons… but I’ve also done a lot of healing, growing, and rebuilding.🙏

And now? I’m coming back to this space with intention.
Not to just “post content,” but to share what’s real. What’s working. What’s worth it.

So here’s what you’ll find here now:

• Wellness that feels good and fits into real life
• Fitness and strength-building (yep, I lift—and love it!)
• Little peeks into our new home and everyday life
• Beauty, inside and out
• And an opportunity to join me in a business that’s been a total blessing—and just might be for you too

This page has always been a part of me—many of you know me as DecorChick. That version of me is still here… it’s just evolving into something more.🥹

And if you’re curious about the thing that’s helped me feel better, have more energy, and create a new stream of income…

Drop “INFO” in the comments and I’ll send you the details + an invite to my private Facebook group!

So glad you’re here. Truly. Let’s grow together 💫

Getting stronger—inside and out!💪 I’m not Getting stronger—inside and out!💪

I’m not just building muscle—I’m building longevity.

There’s something powerful about moving heavy weight. It reminds me of what I’m capable of—not just physically, but mentally too.

Lifting weights isn’t just about aesthetics. For women, it’s essential. Here’s why:

1. It preserves bone density and helps prevent osteoporosis

💪As we age—especially post-menopause—our bone density naturally declines. Lifting weights helps slow or even reverse that loss, reducing the risk of fractures and improving long-term mobility.

2. It builds lean muscle and boosts metabolism

💪Muscle burns more calories at rest than fat, which means strength training supports fat loss and makes it easier to maintain a healthy weight without extreme dieting.

3. It reduces the risk of chronic diseases and supports long-term health

💪Lifting improves insulin sensitivity, lowers inflammation, and supports heart and brain health—helping reduce your risk of conditions like diabetes, heart disease, and cognitive decline.

If you’ve been thinking about starting your own strength journey—this is your sign. It’s never too late, and you don’t have to be perfect—just consistent.☺️

What’s something you’ve done lately that made you feel strong? Drop it below—I wanna cheer you on!🎉

6 years without alcohol. Honestly… still one of 6 years without alcohol.

Honestly… still one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.☺️

Not because I hit some big rock bottom. But because I wanted more — more peace, more clarity, more freedom to not let wine-o-clock dictate my life.🍷

Saying no to alcohol has allowed me to say YES to so many other things:

👫Deep, honest relationships
☀️Early mornings without regret
💕Trusting myself fully
🥹Feeling everything, numbing nothing
🙏And being so at peace in my own skin

If you’re sober, sober curious, or even just thinking about your relationship with alcohol — I’d love to hear your story. Share it in the comments or send me a message. You’re not alone!

Here’s to living fully, feeling everything, and having the ultimate FREEDOM!🙌

#6YearsSober #SoberCurious #alcoholfree
Today we celebrate the victory of life over death, Today we celebrate the victory of life over death, hope over despair, and love that knows no end. 💕May the joy of the risen Christ fill your heart and home with peace, purpose, and renewed faith. He is risen indeed!

Happy Resurrection Day!!
