What I've Learned

Each day we've been quarantined, I look for all the good in this current situation. Like my favorite local coffee shop that sells bags and k-cups of their signature brews, online streaming of my favorite workouts, and that the sun has been shining bright almost daily. I'm trying to not let my anxiety get the best of me, and trust God will carry us all through this soon. As positive as I'm striving to be, I've also learned a lot in the few short weeks (have they actually been short though?) we've...

Let's Get Comfy

Are you trying to use every ounce of self control not to deplete your quarantine snacks you built up in the fridge and the pantry? Yeah, me too... With us staying home during this time, and eating all the things while wearing only comfy clothes on repeat I've been amping up the at-home workouts. I haven't put on real clothes in over a week, and that's ok. I've been living in athleisure which makes it easy to transition to a workout during my lunch break. In addition to working out at home,...

Beach Please

Happy spring! I am more than ready for all the warm weather fun, especially since we are all self quarantined right now there's no better time to get outside and enjoy some Vitamin D. It feels like months ago at this point, but the pictures at the beach are only from a week ago. It was our last outing before hunkering down to enjoy a day date, and I'm glad we were able to sneak it in. The next day, the governor closed all the bars and restaurants except for take out. But back to sunshine and beaches,...

To the Sunshine State Please

Happy Friday! It feels SO good to escape from everything going on in the world outside, and bring back in sense of normalcy - and for me that means sitting down to blog. How are you all holding up? I'm extremely thankful for a fulfilling job that is flexible enough to allow me to work from home until it's safe to go back into the office. And with that, I am even more thankful that we made the best decision ever about ten years ago to relocate from Connecticut to Florida. While we are all practicing...

Roses and Local Brews

We did our best to thoroughly enjoy the weekend before we need to stay home (I see that coming very soon), as we celebrated a friend's birthday and supported local businesses in the area. The weather was perfection with lots of sunshine, and Lil' Miss even took a dip in the freezing cold pool for the first time this year. Ahhh to be a kiddo... H and I actually took today as PTO several weeks ago to have a day date at SeaWorld, and ride rollercoasters without taking turns and enjoy the beverages...

Spring Forward with a Bounce in Your Step

I couldn't be more excited for sandal season! Sure, I break out sandals here and there throughout the year, but it's not consistently warm until mid-late March. I wanted to round up my favorite picks for the warmer months, some of which I've had in my closet for several years which mean comfort and quality. I recently scooped up a new pair of Millers (my dark orange ones are still a fav, even after having them for almost 6 years - now that's great quality) in Sea Shell Pink. I almost...

Orange You Glad

I couldn't be happier that the days are getting longer, and we'll have more sunshine in the evenings. Even though we had what I hope is our last chilly front of the season, we spent the weekend working on the house and dining outdoors. On Saturday I threw on my new tank dress, layered it under a jacket and we headed out for some adulting at Home Depot before bringing Lil' Miss to the park to run around. Dress | Jacket {Only $25} | Sneakers in Metallic White...
