I typically try to steer clear of talking about politics on my blog, because I really get no enjoyment from it, but I do have to say this... I'm about ready to delete Facebook and Twitter because of all the fighting/political posts I see on my news feed. The best answer would be to just … Continue reading Social Media Time-Out
It's been a while since I've done one of these, like, a year? So I've decided that this year I'll do a "Currently/What's Happening Wednesday" post on the second Wednesday of each month to let you all know what I've been up to. You can join too by linking up with me each month through … Continue reading What’s Happening Wednesday {Currently}
My first book of the year was Wake Up Happy by Michael Strahan. I got this for Christmas and I thought it'd be a good book to start the new year off with. Wake Up Happy is part memoir and part self-help. As Strahan talks about certain events in his life he mentions what he … Continue reading Wake Up Happy [book review]
I saw this prompt on two different blogs I follow, and while I was originally going to wait and do this post for my birthday to add one extra item... I've decided that I'm too impatient to wait another five months for this post. So you're getting it now. What is the prompt? Write a … Continue reading 25 Things I’ve Learned About Myself
I'm going to be honest, I've heard of The Chainsmokers, but I'm not a fan. Still, I'm going to do this tag because for one, it's a book tag, and two, I was tagged by Maddie @ Polaroid Books. Even if I hadn't been tagged I would've done it. Again, it's a book tag. Before … Continue reading The Chainsmokers Book Tag

I'm excited for a new set of goals, new challenges, and whatever else comes my way this year. Even though I'm sure there will be storms I'll go through this … Continue reading Happy New Year!
I suppose I should give 2016 a proper send-off. Though many view this as a year that we should never talk about again because it was supposedly the worst year ever, I don't see it that way. As I see it, there isn't a year that is going to pass where we're not going to … Continue reading A Send-off to 2016
Happy New Year's Eve everyone! Earlier this week I posted my reading goals for the upcoming year, so it's only right that I now share my general goals for 2017. First off, I'm going to admit that I was terrible this year in keeping my goals for 2016, but to be fair, some of my … Continue reading New Year, New Goals
December was a month of good reading. I didn't read six books as I did last month, but I still was able to fit four books in which is perfectly okay with me. What's even more okay with me is that they were all Christmas themed books that I read. Three of the books I … Continue reading Recent Reads [December 2016]
Some people get annoyed with these posts, but I think it's fun to share what I got for Christmas because it shows the thoughtfulness of my family and friends. I also enjoy reading others' haul posts, so feel free to share! Let's take a look at what I got for Christmas 2016: Snow tires for … Continue reading Christmas Haul
While I'm planning on writing up a Christmas Haul post of what I got for Christmas, right now I'm going to switch things up and tell what I got others for Christmas. This isn't to brag about what I got everyone, but to share the presents I gave because I was very excited about what … Continue reading Reverse Christmas Haul
Happy day after Christmas everyone! I hope you all enjoyed your holiday weekend and any time off you've gotten to celebrate. Now that we're less than a week away from the new year, let's talk goals. More specifically, reading goals. This coming year my goal is to read 40 books. Maybe it sounds like a … Continue reading 2017 Reading Challenge
