Thoughts on TLOAS

 Happy Wednesday!! Who is loving The Life of a Showgirl?? I know I sure am. Here are all of my current thoughts after listening for a few days....

The Fate of Ophelia: When I hit play after the album was first released, I immediately thought "Ok, this is the tone for the album. Makes sense. I love it!" 

Elizabeth Taylor: If you have ever thought that Taylor and Travis was all PR, just listen to this. You'll quickly realize the girl is IN LOVE.

Opalite: I 100% understand why this is Travis's favorite. Might be mine too! SO good, so fun, and so sweeeeet!!

Father Figure: This is The Man (Taylor No Longer Cares What Anyone Thinks Version).

Eldest Daughter: This song gets me every time I listen. It perfectly sums up what it's like to be the eldest daughter.  

Ruin The Friendship: Not at all what I was expecting. Regret is one of the worst things we experience as humans, and it is perfectly demonstrated in this song. (P.S., Even though it's for a sad reason, I love the mention of Abigail.)

Actually Romantic: Taylor haters this one is for YOU. I love it, and I think it's funnyyyy as all get out! If you dislike her so much, why does she consume your life so much?? (This one is reportedly about a certain celeb, but I think it fits perfectly for anyone who makes hating Taylor their personality)

Wi$h Li$t: I loooooove this one so much!! It makes me happy that Taylor knows she deserves what she wants, but it makes me sad that she will never get those things in a "normal" way.

Wood: I feel the need to crawl under the table, but I really love this one. It is *ahem* very much what you think a song called "Wood" would be about 😳. It's a fun song, though!

CANCELLED!: Ok, I just looked this up, and cancelled is the British spelling, where the American spelling is only one l. Why she used the British spelling, I don't know. But to me, this one is saying "My name is Taylor Swift and Blake Lively is still one of my very best friends." I could be wrong, but it's just what I am currently thinking.

Honey: I feel like this one is underrated but dang it, it's SO SWEET and I love it! Travis has given new meaning to the things Taylor has been called her whole career, and to me that is so powerful.

The Life of a Showgirl (feat. Sabrina Carpenter): I didn't really know what to expect with this one, but I was pleasantly surprised. I love that Sabrina is on it, because she knows the life too. I also love that she grew up listening to Taylor and loved her (much like me since we are about the same age), and now she is on Taylor's album. How fun???!!

Ok, what are your thoughts?? Clearly, I love it! Truly, I love every song ever of Taylor's and this album is no exception. I do think it's different than her other albums, but in such a good way!

Let's Look: January 2026

 Happy Wednesday!! Let's Look is one of my very favorite blog link ups and after not doing it last year, I am ready for it in 2026! I am linking up with Shay and Erika for this monthly series! Today, we are LOOKING at..... THINGS WE OUTSOURCE WITHOUT REGRET. Ok, there are so many things you can outsource that I just would rather do myself. I love to grocery shop. I think I would be weirded out by someone else doing my laundry. A house keeper is just not something we currently need or really want. BUT, there are occasions when outsourcing is just what needs to be done. Grocery Delivery/Pickup We don't do this often, but when we do it's pretty nice. That being said, I am usually ready to get back in the grocery store myself! Food Delivery This is another one we do not do often, but a Wednesday free delivery from Wingstop has sucked me in a few times 😂. And of course, pizza delivery is always nice! Plus, we can get food delivered to the school I work out, so that's nice e...

Friday Favorites {4.2.26}

 Happy THURSDAY. My days are getting so mixed up with a Friday holiday haha! Posting Friday Faves a day early since tomorrow is Good Friday. Whoop whoop! We're getting a 7Brew!! I'm gonna let the new wear off before I go, but dang I am so excited for this! Have y'all tried it?? My sister gave me this MacKenzie Child's cookie jar for my bday and I love!! I made some white chocolate, peanut, and M&M clusters and they looked so cute in it! I will try just about anything once haha, but I finally jumped on the Tik Tok bandwagon and grabbed this facial brush for lymphatic drainage. My mind could very easily be playing tricks on me, but I'm gonna say I see a difference! Got mind from Amazon! And I cannot close out this post without mentioning Autism Awareness and Acceptance Month! Please, please, please educate yourself on what it means to have Autism, how to explain it to your children, how to advocate, how to include, how to help- all the things!! Please remember, if...

 And just like that.....it's CHRISTMAS BREAK! And my last post of 2025! But before all of that, let's get into some faves from my week! Linking up with Erika and Andrea. Some Christmas funnies for ya.... 😂😂😂 "Underground Spirit Week" We dress up or do something silly and the students have no idea, so it's constant confusion and laughter! So fun! Monday- PJ day. Tuesday-  Anything but a bag. Wednesday- Favorite Christmas song or movie character. Oh Christmas Tree, Rocking Around the Christmas Tree, or as one student said...the Rockefeller Christmas Tree! Thursday- Christmas tree topper meets hat. This one did not last long in my hair...hahahah! Today is another PJ day for "Kinderland"! My name is Maddie, and I am obsessed with good smelling laundry.... These both smell AMAZING. The Wicked one smells exactly like the perfume I have been wearing- Jo Malone English Pear and Sweet Pea. Makes me sad that it's limited edition... I was looking for some go...
