Happy Friday! ONE I went back to work this week after a four-week long medical leave and I'm so glad I was able to take that time off. It critically affected my mental health to rest, adjust to my medication and work on getting more mental health support. I remember when my initial 2-week leave was coming to an end, I was so anxious about ...

Friday Five
I hope you had a great week so far! I had a four day work week this week and it was so wonderful to have several days off in a row for the July 4th holiday. It definitely left me feeling re-energized, but I'm going to start this post on a heavier note before I get into the fun stuff. THOUGHTS & FEELINGS We are still at home...all the time. ...

I hope your week is going well! I have today off of work and am selecting fabrics for our game room window seat cushions and a roman shade for our kitchen window. Can't wait for share which fabrics I choose. One of the fabrics I'm considering is this Schumacher one. We have bamboo woven shades everywhere else, but I wanted a fun print for the ...

I'm trying to focus on gratitude right now - thankful we are both employed and able to work remotely, that we have a comfortable home, a full fridge and pantry, enough devices for our children to do their remote schoolwork, an ...

Happy Friday! Lets get started! CAN’T STOP LISTENING TO… The Thousandth Floor series by Katharine McGee (who is a fellow Houstonian!) I’m on the third and final book in the series and just love it. These are totally YA novels – kind of like Gossip Girl set 100 years in the future – so if you’re into that, this is the series for you. I may be a ...

Happy Friday! I took last Friday off from work to renew my Green Card and I got SO MUCH done around the house. It’s the first time since we’ve moved in that I had a sense of everything being where it should be. Of course there’s much more to be done, but it’s a nice feeling to settled in. I mostly worked on the kids rooms and also had my ...

Happy Friday! I haven't done one of these in a while and I have so much goodness to share! The Defined Dish You absolutely MUST get Alex Snodgrass' The Defined Dish cookbook. My goodness, what a DREAM! So far I've had the chicken + sausage jambalaya with cauliflower rice and the magic mustard sauce chicken dish and they are both excellent ...
Books I’ve Listened to Lately + How Audiobooks Changed My Life
Growing up, I loved to read – I would spend hours in my room reading Babysitter’s Club and Sweet Valley Twins novels…and R.L. Stine – anyone else?! I was a huge bookworm and found so much joy in reading. I read less and less as I got older, eventually not reading at all when I became a mom. Life was busy with family, kids, work and my blog. I ...

Happy Friday! There are so many things I haven’t updated y’all on here so I thought today’s Friday Five would include some life updates that I’ve talked a little bit about on IG stories. Chiropractor I had never gone to a chiropractor in my life – in fact, growing up, I was very much taught that chiropractors were not good for your health, ...
