💖week 4 & I genuinely love it! This four week, four step treatment has been such a treat. I’ve never had a salon facial & I wanted to try something gentle & safe for my sensitive, mature skin.
💖This is a 4 week gentle, hydrating peel program. I had an aesthitician friend look it over before ordering. I’ve documented each week right here & have looked forward to each session. If you decide to try, let me know!

Look at this sweet doorprize we won at the Menhaden Whiskey Society’s Battle of the Barrels event in Beaufort, North Carolina this weekend. 🥃Cheers! We will definitely get good use of our new Maker’s Mark | Aged and Ore travel decanter & tumblers.
This would be a beautiful Valentine’s Day, wedding, bridal, bachelor, house warming, or birthday gift. And while I can’t link this product, you can find it online.

Mobile office even when I’m just setting up at home. The fire feels so good so instead of going up to my home office, I’m setting up downstairs.

Simple routine with products I trust. Home or away, staying in or going out, my routine doesn’t change much.

Week 3 of 4 and I’ve been looking forward to this for days. I love this gentle, hydrating peel program from Thome. So easy to follow, and the results are phenomenal on my 51 year old skin. ✨

If you have beach hair, mermaid hair - you know some days it is more frizz prone. I love using this tool for days when my waves need a little TLC. Still my hair, just more like day one hair. This is also great for hair that has some areas that are just more likely to lose their curl pattern than others.

Exposure to PFAS & other forever chemicals is a real concern at our home. Not only the day to day exposures we all face and the added exposure due to our locations, but because of my husband’s career choices. As a navy veteran & firefighter, he has significantly increased risks. So we have shifted a lot of our products - from cooking and food storage to fabric choices for clothing and home goods. We can’t afford to do everything right but here is one simple step that helps. Nonstick cookware that isn’t coated in chemicals.

Wait til the end to see! We ordered my mother of the bride dress! Lula Kate allows you to design the dress of your dreams by selecting the perfect bodice, skirt, fabric, print for your special event. We decided on the Eva bodice, gathered skirt, in the Garden Flora Dreamy Blue. 🩵💙🤍 I can’t wait for it to arrive! Today we have my daughter’s first alteration visit so I’ll be traveling with her dress this afternoon. Exciting time!

Man, I love Calia. And I’m a sucker for neutrals. 🤍🤎🖤 anyone else? Like each top is just different enough to want them all. I love that her clothing line can easily move from active wear to street wear. And so many pieces that work for work and dressier occasions.

Make my bed with me! Sharing the cotton bedding choices we made. And our new mattress! Love! Also? Not really seeing hope chests anymore. But I’ve had mine since I was 16. And my momma has hers! 🫶🏻

Went in for bed pillows.. and left with bed pillows. Proud of myself. But I really want these sweaters! ❤️🤍🖤 I love them both! There were so many cute Valentines finds at Target today!

Also? I can’t do the cropped barrel pants. I think I need to try some full length ones.

I am a simple makeup girly. At 51, I know what I like. And for me, less is more. I’ve been wearing Tarte makeup, almost exclusively, for about 12 years. And these are the eye products I wear every single day. Now in a super priced bundle! 😍

Dinner time is extra special since we switched to making their food. They are so happy & it brings me so much joy! We are eating a little early because we are taking them to look at Christmas lights - they love it! Can’t wait to watch them light up. Not sure about putting the windows down this year though - it’s so cold!!

Mom advice! My children are 27 months apart. In 2019, my daughter was a high school senior & I bought two of these frames. In 2026, my son will complete his high school education. Five years later than his first set of classmates and five years of amazing growth and experience! We are so proud!

I absolutely love their senior portraits! And I am so glad that I went ahead and bought two of these frames all those years ago. Made it so much simpler this year!

DRMTLGY has been my primary skincare line since 2020. I started with their Needless Serum and slowly added products. Some I only used once, but the ones shared here have all been reordered and used regularly. Many daily, some on occasion. Happy to share my routine - day, night, and weekly, occasional.

My grandma was a quilter. And I am lucky enough to have several! I think she’d approve of this simple cotton cross stitch quilt. It’s much simpler than her artwork though. Soft, 100% cotton bedding set found on Amazon. Now help me decide which throw pillows to use here on the bed!

New pillow covers! These are all nude quality and so pretty. Not sure which will end up on the bed and which will be added to a living space.

Oh this senior puppy of mine. He’s such a gentle and playful soul. Here are a few of the babies, or similar, that he’s been drawn to lately.

It took ending my career to understand…

In a room of people you can simultaneously be the most loved & the most disliked.

Your efforts and achievements can simultaneously be the most encouraged & the most judged.

Your recognition can be both celebrated & calculated by both those presenting & those observing.

All at the same time. You can become lifted or deflated. Your spirit can be softened or hardened.

But you can focus on what you choose. You control that. Neither extreme defines you. Or your value. The negativity of others need not dim your light.

And your career does not define you. Shine bright!

My last last day of school was 7 months ago today.

The last bit of Christmas that I put away are usually the mantle decor & stockings … and whatever gifts I still find tucked in them. This year it was just the pet products. 😁. And we’re back to our usual, super simple, mantle.

It’s January 5th. Have you taken down Christmas decorations yet? Sam helped me take most of our things down January 1st. Gotta admit, an artificial tree (even a tall one) is so much easier than our real trees ever were - admittedly they were even bigger than this one so no surprise.

Love that I can basically do this one by myself - and with just my handy step ladder.

Sharing a few of my regular bathroom counter items. All products I know & trust. Get ready with me as a 51 year old woman who is working from home as an affiliate marketer & online educator after unexpectedly retiring early due to federal restructuring. How specific is that? lol

Just a casual content creation double dog walk. 🦮🦮but seriously, this leash has made walks a lot less stressful. Linked here if you’d like to give it a try. FWIW, she’s a 10 year old wild woman and he’s a 13 year old gentleman. And daily walks are good fitness goals for us all!

Hop in and ride along! I have the best shopping partner. Sam loves a routine and he’s such an asset for keeping our grocery shopping organized and consistent. And when we need to stop somewhere else like home goods? Well I can get lost in there, he’s perfect for saying, no, we came for this one thing, let’s go. 🫠 He also has fine motor and sensory concerns due to his genetic differences so when we find something he loves, we grab it! Like these straight legged sweatpants that look good & fit him well.

Stopped at Tractor Supply for bird seed and came home with these two cuties for Charlie. And apparently Nora loves livestock, too.
I’ve linked some of the other cuties available at Tractor Supply. These are not designed for pets but many of Charlie’s favorite babies aren’t. How stinking cute are these?! A lot are marked down after the holidays.
