Check your privilege and save a life this Thanksgiving.😲 I was trying to repurpose some content on how to save money for Thanksgiving from when I was on @dailyblastlive, for my latest blog post, but after watching the segment, things weren't hitting the same as it was last year.

So my advice is simple and straightforward... I would like for you to consider saving a life this Thanksgiving. And at the same time, I promise you will save some money.

Here are three things you can do...

🥇Stay home. I know it may not seem worth it, but when coronavirus is invited inside, things can get out of control fast. And let's be honest, how many of us will keep a mask on while stuffing our face? But if you really need to see grandma, go see her the day before with your mask on and no food involved. She will appreciate the visit.

🥈Buy a pre-packaged meal. This saves you money and saves you walking up and down the aisles putting essential workers at risk. The internet is an amazing thing and groceries can be packed and delivered to your car with no one being harmed.

🥉Check your privilege and go help those that need it the most. It's easy to be a hashtag activist, but between March and June of this year, food banks across America have delivered over 1.9 billion 😱 meals to people who have been hit hard by this pandemic. It's possible that 1 in 6 Americans could face hunger if things keep getting worse. Put your money, or your time, where your mouth is being stuffed and volunteer. Visit @feedingamerica and see how you can get involved.

Finally, if you are stuck between a rock and safe place, trying to decide whether or not to show up for up Thanksgiving with the family... you can check out my latest blog post (link in the bio) where I do some mathsplaining to help you make your final decision. And you can save a few bucks while saving a life or two.

Today I saw the ocean.💜 I was afraid this would be the first time in 20 years I have not ended the year seeing the waves of the Pacific Ocean. My husband made this happen... and I am so happy.🥰

Probably one of the prettiest stages I have spoken on so far. 💜 As a speaker, it's sometime easy to overlook all of the people who work behind the scenes to make an event memorable and stages gorgeous. Thanks to the @hiltondenvercitycenter for doing an amazing job and helping me realize that purple is my color.😂

Adding some fresh flowers to your timeline. 💐😘 A few months ago, I decided I wanted to add some happiness in my life in the form of flowers. Having fresh flowers in my home on a regular basis was always on the "to do" list, but I finally got around to making it happen this year.
++++++++++
After reviewing a few companies that delivered flowers, I settled on @thebouqsco and I have been happy ever since. Every 2 weeks, I look forward to a beautiful arrangement of flowers and it really does brighten my day.
++++++++++
So far, this arrangement called Serene is my favorite with some of the prettiest hot pink roses and calla lilies I've ever seen. 🥰 Loved it!
+++++++++
If you want to give flowers a try, I highly recommend this company. Feel free to use my link and code to get 20% off your order... newbouq20 keepupwithmrsjones.com/bouqs 💜
