I love the feeling of having meals prepped for the week. It feels like I finally have my shit together. But what I don’t love is the effort it takes to actually do the prepping. It’s not hard, per se, but I have a hard time convincing myself to do both the weekly shopping and the cooking on the same day.
It’s pure laziness. 😉

Recently I had a conversation with my good friend Laura about doing things with intent – making things happen instead of letting it happen to you. It came up because we were talking about how excited I was to be able to pick out what clothes I get to wear to work at my new job instead of having to wear a uniform, whitening my teeth because I’ve been embarrassed by the color, and meal prepping so I’m ready for the week. We talked about being a “girl boss” and “getting our lives together” and how exciting the prospect is.

In my last post, I mentioned looking for a new job, and I’m happy to announce that I’ve found one! Yay! I won’t say where for, ya know, privacy reasons, but it’s a company for which I’m very excited to work.
It’s also a typical “9-5” type job at a desk, inside an office building, and the type of work I will be doing is “support staff”/administrative type work.
Honestly, I. Am. PUMPED about it. And I feel like that’s kind of a far-cry from the “hustler” and “boss lady” mentality that has all but consumed our (the millennial) generation. But that works for me. And it’s okay if you’re more partial to it, too.

Hi friends!
I hope you’re all well and I wanted to give a brief update on what I’ve been up to lately.
It’s been a while (with only one post in between) since I’ve sat down and really wrote out some blog posts that I was excited about, or even thought of something about which to write.
The past few months have been both exciting and the same. Continue reading “Update”
If you’ve watched the show Parks and Recreation, you’ll know immediately where the term “Galentine’s Day” originated. If not, allow me to explain: Galentine’s Day takes place on February 13th, the day before Valentine’s Day and it’s a day to celebrate your gals, your girlfriends, your BFF’s.
A lot of companies have noticed the trend and started making décor and party supplies to honor the day of female friendship and in my opinion, it’s usually cuter than the Valentine stuff.
But what do you do on Galentine’s Day? How do you celebrate it?
I’ve got you covered with a few ideas. Continue reading “Galentine’s Day – Date Ideas”
