Basic, Never Boring
What we’re reading… Decluttering at the Speed of Life by Dana K. White. You may be into this whole KonMari wave, but you might also be a slob, like me. This book just clicks because it was written for slobs as opposed to people who love to clean. It’s like watered down KonMari for the…
A great deal has changed in our house during the month of January. The Mister has retired after 28 and a half years in Law Enforcement and I have gone back to work after 8 years of staying home. Going back to work was not what I originally thought it would be. Instead of going…
With Valentine’s Day coming up, all things love and romance are in our faces. That got me thinking about love… what are we going to do for Valentine’s Day, my relationship with my husband (of course I’d think of that relationship first during this season of hearts and cherubs) and, furthermore, how we show love….
What we’re reading… The Husband’s Secret on Audible I’m loving this read. I’m not finished reading/listening to it yet, but it’s so good so far. There are a few different storylines, but each has a secret they are trying to figure out that their husband is keeping. They need to make it into a movie…
Super Bowl LIII between the New England Patriots and the Los Angeles Rams is this weekend and I, for one, am totally ready! Just kidding, I had to Google who’s actually playing.

How-To: DIY Farmhouse Valentine’s Day Sign We recently relocated from Arizona to Texas, and I’m on a mission to make a DIY Valentine’s Day sign for my front porch. I have plenty of old Valentine’s Day decor, but I haven’t ever taken the time to make something for my front porch. I want the sign…
What we’re reading… All These Morning Routines are Making me Shame Spiral. THIS. This right here. I read the excerpted version in the January issue of Elle, titled The Productivity Trap and then had to find it, immediately, online to read daily as a reminder that I am doing just fine. The gist: these CEOs…
Being an “Older” Mom I was born in December of 1972. I just turned 46 and I am the “older mom” of a 7 and 11 year old. Now you know how old I am. Write it down if you want to remember, because you’ll never again see me reveal my age. Why? Because although…
I’ve never been big on New Year’s resolutions, but for the last few years I have taken some time to write some intentions for the upcoming year in the beginning of my planner. Most of the time they have been general – eat more veggies. Less screen time. Sometimes they have been more specific –…
