WFH Chronicles: Create Structure In Your Day
Hey-Heyy,
How is every one doing? Not sure about y’all, but I am doing! My mental health is throwing me for a loop while being in the house. Today, marks my third week of working from home. Some days I enjoy working from home. Some days I want to be around people. Typical Pisces right! I’ll say this, living solo hits different when you are in quarantine.
Nevertheless, I am blessed to have a job that allows me to work from home. There are millions of people who don’t have a job right now. There’s also millions of people who have to work among the general public putting their health at risk. I have the upmost gratitude for my current situation. I get to stay home where I am safe.
At home, I’m still working M-F. My grind doesn’t stop because I’m working from home. I have special projects I’m working on and self-care is a priority! The perk of working from home, I get time back to myself. My intention is to make the most of said time, especially on days when my mental health is feeling great.
To balance special projects and my work schedule, I need structure. To create structure in my day, I rely on my daily productivity worksheet. The worksheet has been apart of my morning routine for some time. Establishing a routine is necessary as we adjust to the new normal of being in the house.
Below is an example of what a typical day for me in like during the work week.
If you need support in structuring your day while #stayingathome, you can download my productivity worksheet below.
I hope this worksheet can be resource to everyone as we kick it in the house.
Until Next Time,

One Year Blogiversary
Today marks one year ago that Destination Peach officially went live. A lot has happened in the span of a year. From my blog posts…you can tell there has been an equal balance of me experiencing, good and challenging life moments. I remember when I first started Destination Peach I was afraid to go live. I wrote and published my first blog post Late Registration back in, June 2015. Yet the only person that could read what I published was me. Once I built up the courage to do more with my writing…it took me several months later to go live. Not to mention, I went through many blog designers, prior to finding a blog designer that understood my vision.
For the next year, the goal is to keep the momentum going with Destination Peach with more consistent/quality blog posts. The goal is to also, birth my book titled Destination Peach (which I have already started writing). Mind you, I will be pursuing these passion projects, while trying to complete my terminal degree (only five classes left).
I just want to thank everyone that continuously reads and supports Destination Peach, it MEANS THE WORLD TO ME! This is only the beginning, there are many great things to come.
Until next time…

Late Registration
Welcome…you have arrived at Destination Peach. This blog has been a long time coming about six years in the making to be exact. Which would classify me as the world’s best procrastinator of all time! But I’m here now, that’s what counts right? I guess it took six years for me to finally build up the courage to say what I want, went I want, and not apologize for it.
With this blog I will share with you my-reality/my-truth, basically my journey through life. You know the ups/downs, moments of pure bliss, inspirational thoughts, unsolicited advice, and life struggles [I am a work in progress]. Hopefully, by sharing my truth it can inspire someone else.
So with that being said… “sometimes it’s the journey that teaches you a lot about your destination.”- Drake
Until next time…
