DIARY No.55 It’s been a fun two weeks as life slowly starts to feel a bit more normal. Some snaps from my camera roll: Mike and I met up with his brother and wife plus a friend to hang out at a nearby cider mill. It was supposed to be really hot and sunny, but…
I am ending this week feeling so good. We had a great trip to Florida, I hired someone new and already feel immense relief, and our little town has really come back to life lately with everyone out and about and all the greenery popping. ON MY RADAR 5.7.21 I made a batch of my mom’s…
White jeans are one of my year-round wardrobe staples. I wear them on repeat, especially during the summer months, because of how versatile they are. They truly go with everything, and there are so many different ways to style them. From fun statement floral tops to simple neutral sweaters or even an all-white ensemble, you…
I am fully looking forward to summer right now. Being in hot, hot Florida for a week and dipping into the pool every afternoon really did wonders for my excitement. I recently tried on all of my swimsuits to figure out what I could get away with this summer and what wouldn’t work. We joined…
I have just had the best week down with my family in Florida. It’s been so long since my last trip down and it felt great to see everyone. I also usually come down and feel like we’re a bit go-go-go. And because we’re still playing things safe, it was a much slower pace. I spent…
I am all about smocked dresses right now. They are the easiest things in the world to throw on and the smocking guarantees a good fit. As the season heats up, I am finding myself reaching for all things smocked. SMOCKED DRESS UNDER $30 My mom and I ran into Target for a quick errand and, well,…
I felt like I went a little “light” this month with reading. Honestly, it was a more stressful month for me and I couldn’t exactly deal with anything too heavy in my spare time. So, page-turners it is! WHAT I READ IN APRIL 2021 THE HUNTING PARTY by Lucy Foley 4/5 Stars I’m pretty late…
Since it’s the first day of May (how?!), I thought today could be the perfect day for a roundup of floral items. I’m usually more of striped girl myself, but lately I have definitely been gravitating towards all things floral. From scents to prints, I’ll take one of each! MAY FLOWERS Bolero Bouquet (CARLY20 for…
I’m pre-writing this post…. but when it goes live, I should be fully relaxed down in Florida. I’ve been counting down the days until I could see my family again and I’m so happy everyone was able to get their vaccines to make this trip happen. It’s been so strange not being able to see my…
girlhood 🫶🏻 find friends who want to do the same little hobbies as you! Went over to @shihstitches’ house yesterday to give her some sourdough starter and go through the basics (I’m *very much* a beginner so I told her to take my lesson with a grain of salt)
PS convinced her to make an IG account! @blueskyehouse
PPS she’s convincing me I really do need a fancy range like her ✨ stunning ✨ @lacanche_us!
Just a girl searching for the perfect digital planner solution. What I have right now is working, technically speaking, but I’m working across platforms and ideally I’d love everything to be in one place. I also have calendar synesthesia (IYKYK) and I physically feel myself in space moving through my calendar, which makes finding a planner difficult because I want/need it to match up with what I see in my head I know this sounds insane but if you also “see” time, you know what I mean!
Right now I’m using:
– Google Sheets to track campaigns/business line items
– Google docs for writing/brainstorming
– Google/Apple Calendars (somehow they’re integrated and I don’t ask questions because it just works...)
– Apple Notes for daily to-dos, random note keeping, and quick jot downs
– Apple Reminders for “must dos” esp w/ deadlines
– Dropbox for photo/file storage
I’m craving a good ole fashioned paper planner but the reality is that I need it to be digital. I need it to integrate with my calendar and remind me of tasks. I need to be able to access it on my computer when I’m working at my desk and on my phone when I’m on the go. I need structure and flexibility?
Does the perfect digital planner exist?! Do I need to overcome my overwhelm and tackle @notionhq? Is an @apple iPad the solution? Do I just keep doing what I’m doing because it’s technically working?
If you’ve stuck around to the end, I appreciate you 🫡
I created a beautiful, custom silk photo album from @printique_by_adorama to remember my sweet dog Hamilton, who passed away earlier this year. Their layflat album captured the colors and details perfectly, making each photo feel so special. It’s a keepsake I’ll cherish forever, and I’m so grateful for the quality and love they put into every page. #printiquepartner
… and yet you must. This week has been the hardest yet. Pressure from work, pressure from myself, pressure from the world. The magnitude of reality feels too much and too heavy. Showing up for my children though when I can barely show up for myself.
We’ve noticed an improvement in Teddy’s vitality and digestion since switching to @primalpetfoods Kibble in the Raw! It’s the easiest way to give him the benefits of raw nutrition without losing the convenience of dry kibble since it’s freeze dried into bites and completely scoopable. You would never guess he’s 11 years old with these moves at the park! #primalpetfoodspartner #ad
In that final home stretch of 2024 and waffling between wanting to plan out every second of my day/week/month and needing to also just fly by the seat of my pants. Holding on for dear life and telling myself to just enjoy the ride 🤪
When the boys go down for bed, sometimes it feels akin to crossing the finish line of a marathon! With my @therabody Theragun Sense, now I’m able to unwind and relax from the #WorkoutCalledLife. With step-by-step prompts on an LCD screen (and accompanying app), the Theragun Sense guides you through different recoveries depending on what your goals are. Tonight, I’m prepping for restful sleep with a six-minute guided massage! #TherabodyPartner
