What's Up Wednesday {January 2024}

 Well, it's FINALLY the last day of January!! Wow, this month always goes by so sloooowwww. Why is that?? Today, I'm linking up with Sheaffer and Shay to share all about our ridiculously long month over here! 

1: WHAT WE'RE EATING THIS WEEK

Monday we had burgers! 

Last night we had "egg roll in a bowl"- yum!

Tonight we're having simple and easy nachos. 

Thursday night I'm throwing everything in the crock pot for chicken tortilla soup!  

2: WHAT I'M REMINISCING ABOUT

I'm really reminiscing about the days that I didn't have school work 😂. So far, this semester has been crazy busy! 

3: WHAT I'M LOVING

I feel like this is my answer every month, buuuut.....

Lake PJs!! And fabulous news, if you've been eyeing some of the Valentine's prints, as long as you order by February 6, they'll be to you by February 13!! But who are we kidding, I'm wearing mine all year long. They're too comfy and cute to only bring out once a year! This time around, I sized up to a medium. Once I wash them (even in cold water and I do not put in dryer!!) they shrink just a hair, so I'm thinking medium is going to make for the perfect fit!! 

I also love this set.

And the night gown. 

4: WHAT WE'VE BEEN UP TO



I think our living room may finally be complete!! I'm really glad we chose an ottoman instead of a coffee table! 

5: WHAT I'M DREADING

I feel like I'm pretty organized when it comes to school, and I also feel like I've been managing my time pretty well, but I still feel like something is going to slip through the cracks somewhere. So, I'm dreading the possibility of that. 

6: WHAT I'M WORKING ON

School. Blog. Laundry. That's my life 😂. 

7: WHAT I'M EXCITED ABOUT

I'm super excited to tell y'all about the FASTer Way to Fat Loss!! I am on week 5 of this program, and I am truly loving it so far. If you like to eat, this program is for you! Sounds like a lie, right? Weeeellll it's not. I'm telling y'all- most days I feel like I have done nothing but eat all. day. long. I'm also working out almost every day, and I am loving that. I have been wanting to get into a habit of exercising for a while, and having the accountability from my coach has really helped! My favorite part of the whole program is getting my stars in the app each day 😂. You get a star for hitting you water intake goal, macro tracking, working out, and fasting. I fast for 16 hours, and eat in an 8 hour window. I thought for so long that this program seemed so difficult, but it's actually not! I really really love it! 

8: WHAT I'M WATCHING/READING

Still watching Reba and Grey's Anatomy. I told Caleb that I'm making him watch Desperate Housewives next- I'm not sure why I haven't already made him??? 

As far as reading, I have started two books- one of which I really like, but I think I need to focus on one book at a time. I'm hoping to have a January/February book review for you next month! 

9: WHAT I'M LISTENING TO

If you've been here a minute, you'll know the answer to this one 😉.

Taylor. It's always gonna be Taylor. 

But, I've been making a point to listen to worship music in the mornings after I do The Bible Recap. This has been a favorite song of mine for several years! I rotate this playlist out with Taylor throughout the day. 

10: WHAT I'M WEARING 

See "WHAT I'M LOVING" 😂😂. But really, I try to get "dressed" a few times a week. By "dressed" I mean, taking off the pjs or the dirty workout clothes and putting on jeans and a cute sweater or top. 

11: WHAT I'M DOING THIS WEEKEND

Nothing on the calendar yet! 

12: WHAT I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT MONTH

No more January 😂. All the lovey dovey things. Hearts. Chocolate. And The Eras Tour starts back up next week!! Woohoo!! 

13: FAVORITE AMAZON PURCHASE THIS MONTH

I may have mentioned it a time or two 😉....

This Lulu dupe sweatshirt!! I'm obsessed with it! If I had the room in my closet, I'd buy it in all the colors! 

Well friends, here's to another month!! I hope you're all having a great 2024 so far! Have a fabulous Wednesday!!

  1. I need some of those pj’s. I love your menu this week. The dupe is really good. Regine

Friday Favorites {12.20.24}

 Happy Friday, friends!! And Merry Christmas Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve- that's a thing, right??😂 I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea today to share some faves from the week, and then I will be off for the holidays! My plan is to see y'all back here on January 13! For some food faves.... I grabbed the raspberry kringle at Aldi the other day after seeing so many positive reviews on it. It is really good!! I had some with a cup of coffee a couple times this week! Last night, Caleb made lasagna soup- YUM. Definitely a favorite of mine lately! A great way to end the night.... Caleb made me a cosmopolitan the other night. Yum! I am really going to miss this sight.... This is my favorite time of year for sure! Twinkly lights and candle light = the BEST. On my drive home from work yesterday.... This was a fun little surprise. I don't remember this from last year! I hope you all have a great weekend and a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday! However, whatever, whenever, whereve...

Friday Favorites {6.6.25}

 Happy Friday, friends!! How was your week? One of my summer classes started this week, so I have been getting back into a bit of a routine which is nice! As always, I am linking up with Erika and Andrea to share some faves from the week.  How cute is our new wreath sash?? My mom got it for us, and I am obsessed! Lots of food faves this week.... Another salsa I am now obsessed with! I found this at Aldi, and y'all it is SO good! I used it in a recipe, but I am definitely going to get another jar to eat for a snack or with lunch or dinner! Now for a Tik Tok "recipe". I used quotations, because it's really just a chop/open a can and throw together situation. Corn, black beans, pinto beans, onion, tomato, cilantro. I ate it with tortilla chips for lunch this week. It was so good! Next time, I would add more tomato and use less onion (maybe even no onion at all), and I should have chopped up the cilantro a little better! I also squeezed in some lime juice and added salt a...

 Happy last Friday of August! As always, I am here to link up with Erika and Andrea to share some faves from my week.  To be honest, it feels out of touch to make this post. After the devastating news of yet another school shooting, my heart is so heavy. Innocent lives taken and still no changes from people in power. I honestly do not know how anyone can see news like this and not be enraged and demanding for change. I do not get political on here, because that is not what I want for this space. However, I feel the need to share my thoughts about this. America needs gun control. ALL Americans need access to healthcare, especially when it comes to mental health. America needs change. Remember these things when you vote. Think about your babies, their friends, their teachers. Stay aware, stay educated. But also please make sure you spend time doing things that bring you joy (it's good for your mental health!). That is at least what I am going to do. With that being said, here ar...
