Loving Lately, Vol 10 – Recent Purchases

In years past, I've typically bought my planners from Amazon or Target, and they work just fine, but for 2019 I… Continue reading Loving Lately, Vol 10 – Recent Purchases
Halloween Heaviness
It’s not even 11:00 am, and I find myself needing to swear off social media for the day. During a quick scroll, I counted five pregnancy announcements. FIVE. Cute fall and Halloween themed photos, excitedly announcing “our little pumpkin” arriving in May. Now, don’t get me wrong. I am friends with these people, and I’m… Continue reading Halloween Heaviness

Exercising and Podcasting

Some current favorites, broken down by category. Beauty My new 'do for fall! I had my stylist darken up my roots and top layer, a little closer to my natural hair color. After a few rounds of highlights, plus all the natural lightening from the sun, my hair was pretty blonde-ish. She used a cool,… Continue reading Loving Lately, Vol. 8

Loving Lately, Vol. 7
I am a loyal Colleen Hoover follower, and did not even look at the book description when I purchased and started reading her latest book, All Your Perfects. Holy Cow, I could not put it down, and finished it in three days. The story unfolds by alternating past and present tenses. In the past, we learn… Continue reading Loving Lately, Vol. 7
