Before you open up your email, respond to that text message, or hop on social media, check out these links for some Monday morning motivation. They are the things that are bringing a smile to my face and placing laughter in my heart. These links remind me that the internet is not always a negative soul sucking space. I hope they do the same for you.
Did you know Country Hip Hop Dancing was a Thing?
With dance steps like vaudeville and window washer there are no words for the amount of laughter you’ll get from this epic old school dancing video. It’s all about that “cowboy hip hop”!
Adult Slushies via Cupcakes and Cashmere
These adult slushies are going to make the summer a lot more lively! The recipe is so easy it’ll have you asking yourself why you didn’t think of it first
Advertised as “your own personal bartender” SomaBar is the first app controlled cocktail maker. Use it to mix cocktails and infuse bitters to make the perfect drink in less than 5 minutes.
If I had a workspace like the one featured here on Daily Decor I know that sh*t would just get done! It’s perfectly girly without being annoying and is so organized it’ll make you want to do an overhaul on your nearest closet.
12 Delightful Drink Station Idea’s
I am in love with the “station” fad that’s been hitting the party circuit. I feel like it’s a really charming way of presenting food and drinks at a party while creating an interactive atmosphere where guests can mingle and not feel tied to any particular menu option. Sure it’s just a buffet, but adding some balloons, chalkboard menus and confetti just takes it to another level!
Serena Williams Wimbledon Champions Dinner Ensemble
The loveliness that was the gown that Serena Williams wore to the Wimbledon Champions Dinner is almost too much to take! The crystal bodice, the flowing train, her beautiful understated makeup! It’s glam from head to toe! Congrats to her on her 6th Wimbledon title!
4 Words CHURRO ICE CREAM SANDWICHES!
For the love of God why is there yet another thing I have to put on my “may cause a heart attack but it may be worth it” list!
Maybe it’s the fact that I got Audrey Hepburn that’s making me particularly happy, or maybe it’s because I like playing time-wasting games on the internet. Who knows, but this “which iconic actress are you” quiz is giving me life and making me go through all of my old school movie catalog on Netflix.
I hope these links make you as happy as they make me! What are some things that are making you happy at the moment? I’d love to know in the comments below.

Holy flashback. I remember the days when country hip hop was all the rage down here. Those were dark, dark days, indeed. We all looked so ridiculous!

Adult slushies sound awesome especially in the summer! And as much as I like country music, I’ve never seen country hip hop dancing!
Kisa Johnson says
I need to actually think of stuff that makes me happy. It’d give me things to remember when I am feeling at my absolute lowest, and as someone with depression that’s sadly too often!

AnneMarie Leblanc says
Mommies do need time to unwind and just have some quiet times for themselves. What else would be better than to sit watching the sunset with an adult slushie. (the lime tequila granita looks so refreshing!)
Alli says
I’m still in awe that Serena won Wimbledon! She’s amazing and still has it going on. That alone motivates my Monday and every day!

Great list. That video was fabulous and just what I needed today! Gets me in the mood for summer which today feels like Fall.
Lynndee says
At the moment, I am drinking my coffee and it’s making me happy. Also, while doing so, I am listening to a soothing music that my son is listening to on the iPad. He’s got such good taste when it comes to music. 🙂

There’s nothing like an organized, pretty girlie workspace that can help get those creative juices flowing. I am inspired to make one for my flat. It would prolly make me want to go home early each time.
Ann Bacciaglia says
I mam going to try the adult slushies. They are perfect for the hot weather.
upliftingfam says
I guess I’m a bit sheltered, I have not heard of county hip hop dancing either. But then again hanging out again the bar isn’t exactly my isn’t idea of fun.
