(I’m now realizing I think I skipped last year! Whoops!) I read a lot of great books last year and, while I do monthly recaps, it’s fun to look back at the year as a whole. I thought I’d share a few of my reading “wins” too, before diving into my favorite books. The biggest…
I clearly have a “clean palette” on my mind right now! I really am trying to not do too much shopping right now. (It’s always the easiest time of year to avoid shopping #winter.) But oh, I do like the idea of a nice clean edit. I typically wear lots of neutrals in the navy,…
Before I post my “best of” 2022 books, I need to post what I read in December! I’ve been loving reading lately. It’s something I almost always enjoy doing, with the occasional rut here and there, but I will say the past six weeks or so have been a great time for reading for me….
I had to rewrite the date three times before I got it right. Can’t believe we’re almost a week into this brand new year. It’s been such a great start for us! We rang in the new year with our close friends and then we went to a Bucs game together on the first, we…
I found myself ordering a lot from Amazon last month since they make it so easy to shop, and the Prime two day shipping definitely comes in handy around the holidays! As we head into the new year, I wanted to share some affordable additions I found on Amazon to add to your winter wardrobe….
Hello, hello! I’m back after a gloriously long two-week break. It was a break from work, but it was pretty go-go-go. I’ll do a proper catch up soon, and have plenty of posts recapping some of my 2022 favorites coming up. Today’s post though is one of my favorite both to write and to look…
Scheduling this post ahead of time to share a few NYE Outfits! Our New Year’s Eve is always pretty laid back, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. It’s not really my kind of night, so instead, we make a special dinner at home and watch the ball drop on TV. Best of all,…
I’m signing off for the next couple of weeks. If the mood strikes I’ll post on Instagram, but I’m really looking forward to taking some time off. I can’t believe we’re already at the end of 2022!! Thank you so much for being here. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your support. It…
Last “week of outfits” for the year! These posts are always the #1 post of the week and I love that you love them as much as I do. They’re such a helpful way to force me to “shop my own closet” and to, you know, not wear the same thing every day 🤣 LAST…
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
Halloween 2024 was one for the memory books 🏈 Rory’s first Halloween!! Jack had a blast, Rory loved tagging along, and Mike and I couldn’t stop smiling 🤍 I don’t know how many years I’ll be able to convince the boys to coordinate their costumes so really taking advantage- I bought Jack’s football player costume (customized!) and sewed Rory’s football bubble myself (Jack asked if he could throw him, which was a resounding and firm, “no.”). Now time to raid Jack’s stash 😛
