This was a GREAT month for reading… mostly because I read what will undoubtedly be a top read of THE YEAR…. KNOW MY NAME by Chanel Miller 5/5 Stars Hands DOWN the best book I’ve read all year. It’s absolutely phenomenal. Chanel Miller was the victim of sexual assault by a Stanford student. (You may…
I’ve been reading for an hour or so before bed almost every night. I typically don’t read Friday or Saturday nights though, but five days a week? Not too bad. I had to start forcing myself to do it because I could feel my habits slipping a bit. Some nights I actually set a timer…
Since my reading goal for the year (52 books!) is a top priority for me, I wanted to make sure that I’m sharing what I’m reading with you guys every month. (This is also going to help me stay on track and motivated and accountable.) I have monthly recaps penciled into my editorial calendar for…
So remember how my old Macbook hit the dust? Two reasons why I didnāt panic. The first was that all my old information was totally and completely backed up. The second was that Iāve been using my Sony Vaio as my primary laptop this semester. It has turned out to be the most perfect…
I cannot believe Christmas is at the end of this week!!! After such a crazy year, I have very little sense of time anymore. Especially right now while we’re basically back down to early-pandemic safety protocolsā the days are blending together. Despite it being a different season of celebration, I’m still really looking forward to…
Here’s what I read during the month of July! Happy reading! LOVE, THEORETICALLYĀ by Ali Hazelwood 4/5 Stars I’ve been hearing great things about Ali Hazelwood’s books and I’m so happy I got to finally see what the hype is all about. I really enjoyed thisā it falls under the RomCom genre, which isn’t typically my…
I had to share these Adele videos. Her new album 25 has already broken the one week sales record (previously held by N*SYNC since 2000) in just a handful of days. Of course, I’m one of those people! I occasionally buy songs that I love, but it takes a lot for me to download the full album….
I’m back today with two more books. I feel like I just posted about two books to read, so I hope you’re not sick of my recommendations. These two books are AMAZING. I hope you get the chance to read them as soon as possible because they’re that good. I downloadedĀ 10% HappierĀ on a whim. (I…
After what seemed like ages of movies I didn’t want to see, this holiday season had so many that piqued my interest! Going to the movies is one of my favorite things to do. I’ll even go alone sometimes just to sit in a dark theater and have a couple of hours to myself. Popcorn…

With Jack in preschool and Rory in daycare part time, I am clicking back into gear with work. A little scared to see how it goes and also excited to dive back in. I really do love my job. And as we move into the fourth quarter, things are already heating up- I feel ready to take it on. Before things get even crazier, I also wanted to extend a HUGE thank you to YOU. Whether weāre commiserating about ruined baby naps, chatting about what to wear to a wedding, laughing about being nude and lewd (š¤), sharing memes about American Girl dolls, or adding another bow product to our shopping carts, Iām just so glad youāre here. Iāve been on the internet for so long and can confidently say I have the best group of women following along. Weāve gone through so many life stages together. š«¶š»

@simply_elsa and I met five years ago when I moved to the suburbs. I quite literally slid into her DMs after I saw that she was geotagging a nearby town and seemingly liked cute blue and white things as much as I did- that felt like enough to at least start a friendship with at the time! Thereās something extra special about forming friendships in adulthood. It feels like a conscious choice more than just circumstantial. š«¶š» We help each other with work, with motherhood. Navigating the tough parts of life in your 30s and venting to each other with zero judgment. Sending videos and memes with no additional commentary necessary (a language of its own). Now our children play together (!!!) and itās just a whole new world there too. So glad I sent her that DM asking for a coffee date five years agoā¦ that coffee shop we went to might not be around anymore but our friendship sure is thriving!

Now that school is back in session and summer travels have come to a close, I can feel my social calendar filling up a bit more. Pickleball, needlepoint club, ice cream/library playdates, GNOs at Chiliās... Even as an extreme introvert, Iām kind of excited to have places to go and people to see and the outfits to wear again. šāļøš¤āØ (Comment āfall outfitā and Iāll send you a link to everything Iām wearing!)
Go sports! ā½ļøāš»š„ š¤ Just me and my boys on a misty Saturday morning getting muddy and having fun
