Sunday Somethings – 2023
Hello, Sunday. Happy New Year, 2023! I’m not one to dwell on New Years. It’s not a “holiday” or occasion that I’ve ever really liked, nor necessarily put much stock as far as resolutions or grand statements. I always try to ease in the new…
Sunday Somethings- Christmas, 2022
Hello, Sunday.
Keeping it brief because I suspect most of you are taking the long weekend to unplug, regroup, and spending time away from the interwebs.
While not all of you celebrate Christmas, I’m wishing you tidings of joy, happiness, wonder, peace and fun. Universal good vibes.

Merry Christmas!!

Sunday Somethings- December 2022
Hello, Sunday.
Hello, December!
New month, but new season! The holidays are full at it and I’m feeling the buzz and a little bit of the frenzy. I am down at Disney to unwind for a few days, celebrate my dad and I can say that I really needed it. I was getting to be a real crabby pants.
That being said, new month, new mindset, so here’s what is going on with me this month:
hoping: for a short winter
thinking: of my to-do list when i get home (not ideal on vacation)
praying: crawley’s new vet is better than his old vet and that he’s okay
planning: 2023 vacations! coming soon: asheville, disney, jordan, italy…and more tbd
dreaming: of cozy nights by the fire
wearing: cozy things- and i just found these socks again and i’m stoked – they are the best!
reading: always be my duchess
watching: the crown, and old GBBO
eating: so many sweets…my favorite poppyseed rolls
baking: the latest
wishing: on stars, always
