Monday Musings

Hello stranger! I have returned from my blogging hiatus with a list of excuses that are shamefully pointless very valid and give me no good reason to have been absent from this little corner of the internet for 6 months. But that is neither here nor there, so I'm going to pick right back up …

Last 90 Days.

They say that the average American can gain 5 pounds between October and December. If you combine the bright colored yellow an orange packaged candy on Halloween, the turkey and stuffing on Thanksgiving and the gorge fest that is the entire month of December - it really makes sense. It's also easy to say, "I'll …

Tuesday Musings

This post will be a Monday Musings on a Tuesday. Judge me. Is this because I am having trouble finding deep and meaningful content? Yes. No. As of Friday, we have survived 6 weeks of engineering school. No, I do not attend class or take exams. But, based on the conversations I have with my …

View Life With Your Eyeballs

Hello friends! Sorry for the blogging hiatus, but the hubs and I have been adjusting to this new life and rhythm of him going to school. However, I am back and I'm glad to be writing again! Michael and I went on a short vacation earlier this month to stay at the lake with my …

How (Not) To Shop At Target

Step 1: Only go into Target if you have a list. Never go in alone to just wander around. This is a dangerous space to enter without an end goal. Step 2: Verbally say your list as you walk inside so that you remind yourself not to get distracted. "Shampoo and garbage bags. Shampoo and …

Life Lately.

Hello, friends! Monday means my brain is struggling for content, so here are a few snaps of life lately. Michael made us a table! Guys. It only took two years of marriage, but we did it. Per my request - he's going to stain the top and paint the bottom because I am a basic …

Fall.

64 days. 9 weeks. 2 months. Y'all. It's going to be fall. Even though living in the middle of North Carolina means that is is blazing hot until November and then it becomes freezing cold overnight. So, in reality we really only experience "fell" because it happens so fast it might as well be past …

What My Dog Hears When I Talk

My dear friend Kearsie did a blog post titled "What My Children Hear When I Talk", and it was hilarious to read. However, since I only have a fur baby, I decided to make a similar post about Olive. Don't judge, she's a living being that we keep alive and Michael and I love her …

How I: Workout

First of all, I realize that I am no expert on exercise. BUT. Some people have asked me what I do for my weekly workouts, so I wanted to do a post on it today to let you in on my routine. WHAT: Yoga - I have started "practicing yoga" (which is apparently the correct …

Monday Musings: Episode 6ish

Hello, friends. I hope everyone has recovered from their 4th of July festivities! There is nothing like a mid-week day off from work, but also July 4th should never again be on a Wednesday because going back to work on Thursday was truly the worst thing. I mean, it was like getting a Saturday with …
