Here’s what my last two weeks looked like according to my camera roll! I was up in the area for my friend’s baby shower and got to catch up with Sam for brunch beforehand. We rarely get to see each other one on one (it’s almost always a hang out with our kids or in…
I have to admit that after a couple of weeks of being super lazy, I kicked into full gear this week getting everything back in order and catching up and getting (dare I say it?) a little ahead. I was doing the bare minimum and letting things at the house slip through the cracks…. laundry sat…
Lady jackets were an instant closet staple for me! They’re so versatile and something I find myself reaching for again and again. So when I received this striped sweater lady jacket in the mail, I immediately fell in love. The navy and cream stripes are a classic and the gold buttons are a gorgeous touch. The…
It’s time for another “ten things” post. I stole this idea from my friend Kelly– but it’s basically just an old school blog post where I share the first ten things that come to mind… Ready, set, go! ONE // The Bad Haircut Remember when I got a really bad haircut in September? (I don’t think…
Overall had a very nice week at home. Lots of time outside and lots of cousin time was had by all! LAST WEEK’S WIN: Not sure if this is the biggest win of the week, but it was still a highlight worth sharing. Pickleball has just become so much fun. I think we as move into…
Another high/low month of reading… MY LAST INNOCENT YEAR by Daisy Albert Florin 3.75/5 Stars This is a novel set in a New England college and kind of in the vein of My Dark Vanessa. I’m going to be brutally honest here and say that while I enjoyed the book enough, it was kind of…
We are inching closer to warmer weather, and I’ve started to refresh my wardrobe with a few transition pieces for the new season. I pulled together some cute and affordable classic staples under $100 that can be mixed and matched this spring. A good pair of jeans is a springtime must-have, and I’m obsessed with…
I wanted to highlight one of my favorite small businesses today! My sister actually introduced me to the brand Sprinkled With Pink when she got me a denim jacket for my wedding. USE CARLY10 FOR 10% OFF! I’ve been a fan since and they’ve expanded their product offerings soooo much. Truly cute and useful things….
Jack and I have been logging our outdoor hours big time. A highlight for Jack was that a neighbor had to have a dead tree removed and it was a production and a half. A bunch of our neighbors (moms and kids) were out watching, too. It was just such a funny little Tuesday morning…
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
