Birthdays in recent years have followed the same formula as many of my other trips: find a deal on airfare, a decently-priced hotel, and then pick some fun and cheap things to do. This year was different. This was the year Michael uttered a proclamation I didn’t even know I needed to hear: “Let’s go …
At the beginning of the year, Michael and I began discussing ways we can reduce waste both in our home and while traveling. Though our carbon footprint grows larger with each flight, we’re not going to stop traveling any time soon (and when large corporations are to blame for most of the greenhouse gas emissions …
Another 10×10 Challenge is in the books! Find the previous Spring 10×10 posts here: Preview | 1-3 | 4-6 | 7-10 I wanted to share my thoughts on the Spring 10×10 with you after I’ve had a little time to mull it over. On the agenda today is a look at all ten outfits, my …
Whoosh – and another 10×10 is gone! This one flew by for me; I’m not sure if it’s just this time of year, or if time is simply beginning to move faster. I’ll share my final thoughts on the challenge as a whole on Thursday after I’ve had a few days to mull it over. …
Wow, we’ve crossed the halfway point! This 10×10 challenge is flying (I’ve seen others say that, too, so I’m glad I’m not the only one!) and I’m looking forward to returning to my full closet. I’m not necessarily desperate for any item in particular; I’m just ready to not feel boxed in. No clue what …
We’re one-third of the way through the Spring 10×10! (Not sure what that means? Check out my last post for all the info). The feed is filled to the brim with positivity and inspiration – it’s been my favorite part of this whole series. I’m thrilled to see so many people lifting each other up …
It feels like we just did this, doesn’t it? Frankly, I wasn’t quite ready for another 10×10 challenge, but after some reflection, I figured the main word in the phrase is challenge and I decided to complete one last challenge. So here we are again! (Lost? It’s not you, it’s me. I’m terrible at introductions, so …
I know, I’m from Florida, and chances are you’ve probably made me and all of my fellow citizens the punchline of a joke at some point. Yes, we’re aware of it, and quite frankly, we totally get it. We see news stories that make us cringe on a weekly basis. To be honest, neither Michael …
Back in 2016, one of my New Year’s Resolutions was to complete a reading list (I chose this one, despite not being a man and still having a few years to go before hitting 30). I completed my last book with only hours to spare on December 31, and since then I always seem to …
Tomorrow is the first day of Spring! Surprisingly, Florida has a very short Spring season – we typically go from Winter straight into Summer, with only a few days of pleasant weather between. For some reason, we were blessed with what felt like an actual Spring this year (maybe as a reward for surviving the …
