ThUrSdAy....

Titling my posts is obviously not my strong suit....ha! So I know on my list of goals yesterday I didn't really say anything about household chores or anything like that...and I keep the place fairly clean, but I've been trying to work harder so I am cleaning up after myself rather than doing a big clean once a week. So far this week it has been going very well! I even cooked Drew dinner last night...(nachos with homemade chips...guess thats not a great start to eating better...) AND did all the dishes today as well as a few loads of laundry. Tomorrow I plan on getting the rest of the laundry clean....been letting it pile up, and continue to straighten up after myself on the daily. The place has been pretty spic and span since last week now :). I'm loving it!!!!! Also this way I can have surprise visitors and not freak out....although nobody ever surprise visits me...yeah i'm trying to hint that you are all welcome to visit anytime!!! Obviously only those of you with my gate code are invited :) and those who don't have them...well text me and I'll remind you what it is! Or I won't write back and that means I dont want you here......

As for my other goals, well we have been paying the bills on time and having money left-over. In a few weeks we are going salmon fishing which digs into us throwing any money into the savings accounts...but we are going to try and put everything into the savings, and just take out the bare minimum for our little trip....luckily our friend's parents have a friend that has a weekend getaway house where we are all planning on fishing so lodging is free! And...dry! It's going to be an awesome mini vacation with my 3 fave people! All we need to worry about is food, gas, and fishing gear/my license.

On another very exciting note...my sister and her daughter are back in town! For good this time! I am SOOOO excited to start spending more time with her and my niece. I think we can all agree that she will love it here much more than Nebraska?? Well...I am hoping to make her experience and new beginning here as awesome as possible. Sorry no pix to keep your interest today! If you've read this much I congratulate you on caring so much about my boring life :) Ta ta for now!

I think I might blog about it

I am feeling bloggy today! I'm about ready to fire up the instagram (and dare I say start up my tiktok?) again and in about a month I'll be making the switch to my fall/winter capsule wardrobe. But here's the thing...I'm having SO much fun in my current spring/summer one! I'm pretty sure I am going to combine them for a somewhat larger than average, but longer lasting, capsule. A lot of people switch theirs every season. I tend to switch it up every 6 months. Now it may be more of a "this is my wardrobe forever and everytime I buy something new I get rid of something with holes or stains" wardrobe.  Anyway- My incredibly loose formula for building a capsule is as follows:  Figure out my color scheme! I did a brown base for my last fall/winter and navy base for my spring/summer. I think that this time around I will do a navy base for my fall/winter, but keep in some of the brown as a secondary color. I also always have a cool off-white as my second base col...

Time for my yearly check-in!

 Ok so- (have you ever seen that video about the end of the world from ebaum's world? well this was said like that guy....)  Alright the first thing is first - I have an 18 month old daughter and am hoping to get pregnant again in the (near?) future. This means that I am living in that postpartum mama bod world and am not mentally ready to try and get slimmer yet. Maybe I never will! I have a somewhat apple/rectangle shape and lots of belly!! I am also petite in height. This makes it SO hard to find clothes that fit AND look good on me! I have searched high and low for jeans that fit and also don't give me a muffin top or fall down my narrow hips. Anyway, I have made a few purchases for some clothes that will be more flattering for my figure- finger's crossed. This means peplum tops, slacks, high waisted leggings/skinny jeans when they fit. I also have NO MONEY! So, some of my purchases have had to be through amazon and old navy in order to be able to afford clothing for my...
