Happy Monday everyone!! I cannot believe that we are here at Thanksgiving week!! How did that happen!?!? You blink and time just flies by! Today, I am sharing with you this poncho that I actually snagged at Target, but is now sold out!!! I linked as many similar as I could.  This poncho was under 30.00! I mean, you cannot beat that.  I don’t know about you, but Thanksgiving is a big eating holiday for us so, I will be wearing my capes and poncho’s to hide that food baby!! I love the color and style of this one!! I paired it with my old faithful black skinnies and my favorite block heels at the moment, from ASOS!!  My sunnies are Victoria Beckham C/O Shop Ditto a designer eyewear company where you can rent sunglassess for 24.00/ mo and swap them out whenever you want!! Use code ‘RUTHIERIDLEY’ for your first month to be free!!

As I had mentioned last week, I am hosting 15 for Thanksgiving this year.  I did a ton of shopping yesterday and all other little duties have been delegated! Ben and I have been tackling the house room by room and we are almost there! Our room is last! That’s always how it is!!  Family and friends will start to arrive on Tuesday evening!!  I am looking forward to being with everyone!! Thanksgiving is always such a special time!! We are hoping to get our tree up later this week as well!! Do any of you have your houses decorated yet?!!?  Hope you all have a wonderful start to your week!!

Much love,

Ruthie XO

    You look fabulous as always Ruthie!! I’m not normally a fan of ponchos, but I’m absolutely loving this one on you, you’re totally working it. I’m not surprised though : ) Thanksgiving is an eating holiday for me too… I think you’re onto something with just throwing a “blanket” over our food babies. I hope you have a wonderful thanksgiving with your fam!

I honestly went back and forth on sharing this but I honestly went back and forth on sharing this but why not 🤪. I left the worst ones out 😅

Online hate is wild to me. People behind a screen saying whatever they want not realizing it actually affects real people.

I posted a simple cute video of Ben and I going from regular clothes to our work uniforms. it went viral, which is a chance you take so I got a lot of love which I’m thankful for but a lot of hate as well.. these were all strangers, people who don’t know that we’ve been married almost 18 years, have a beautiful family, genuinely love each other, and love what we do and the people we serve 👮‍♂️ 👩🏾‍⚕️ 🩺 

You expect it to some extent but I didn’t realize how much words could still affect me…I’m 41 almost 42. It really doesn’t matter how old you are words still hit.

I’m not sharing this for sympathy just a reminder before you leave a mean comment on someone’s page whether it’s a stranger, someone you know, or someone with a big platform think twice. Words matter & they  impact people more than you think.

This time last year I was unexpectedly renewing my This time last year I was unexpectedly renewing my Nursing 🩺👩🏾‍⚕️ license after leaving my job in 2020 and spending five years at home with my kids creating content full time. To say I was shocked to be reentering the workforce is an understatement. Sometimes life shifts and you just have to roll with it 😮‍💨

I am SO thankful I had the opportunity to go back to work but it was hard. I felt like I failed in my business & I was down BAD 😝 But I realized something….God makes NO MISTAKES.

I LOVE my current job & I STILL get to create content, but now it feels more authentic and true to who I am😌

I am dancing because I can & because I am thankful. Your life can change SO much in a year, overnight or In a MOMENT. Trust God with your life. He will NEVER let you down 🤍

If you’re new here, then I’ll give you a little bit of a backstory but also if you’ve been here for a while because a lot has changed in the last year 🤪. 

I became a nurse at 19 after graduating high school early, raised in a very purpose driven Jamaican home. Nursing was never just a job for me. It was provision, connection, and a way to serve people from all walks of life.

In 2020, I stepped away from nursing to pursue content creation full time, and it truly felt like a dream!!! The biggest blessing was the time it gave me with my family. Being present, raising my kids, and soaking in every moment 🥲

Then almost exactly a year ago, May 15, God called me back to nursing, and I couldn’t believe it. The transition was not easy, but it has been one of the greatest blessings. My heart is so full, and I have never felt more aligned in what I do.

God knows what He is doing. He makes no mistakes 🤍 Where are my nurses, law enforcement, and first responders at 🙋🏾‍♀️
