My computer’s hard drive crashed this and I’ve been without it all week. Like any sane person, I’ve gone on a massive de-cluttering strike to distract myself. I pulled out all of the baby and kid clothes I’d been holding onto and listed them for sale on Instagram. There are over 100 items at @shophitherkids, if you’re interested. In general, boys’ items are for age 4 and under; girls’ items are for age 2 and under.
P.S. On decluttering. And, check back, Friday links coming up soon!
Since getting the keys to the cabin in Tahoe—a few months ago now—we’ve been spending a lot of weekends in the mountains! We were lucky to get to go up right away, as everything was pretty much move-in ready, but we still have a wish-list and we’re slowly ticking things off.
One of the first priorities was to make the bedroom feel comfortable: new bed, new mattress (courtesy of Leesa), and some crisp, fresh sheets.
Ever since the Game of Thrones finale, Aron and I have felt a bit lost. What television shows should we be looking forward to?
First off, I would have never expected to be a fan of that show. Dynastic period piece? Okay. But Sci-fi? Fantasy? No, not usually my thing. “Oh, so she just hopped on her dragon child to get away?” That sort of thing usually drivers me crazy! But now I’m finding myself envying a friend who just started the series: part of me secretly wants to just re-watch the whole thing, too… that’s how much I came to love it!
Lately the election coverage has been too compelling (mostly in that train-wreck sense, but occasionally for incredible moments like this). Stranger than fiction, one might say. I can’t seem to turn myself away from comedic commentary by the likes of Samanta Bee, Stephen Colbert, and John Oliver.
But sometimes I feel over-saturated: House of Cards—we’re catching up on the last season—actually hits too close.
We’ve got other favorites to catch up on: The Americans, Orange is the New Black, Girls, Orphan Black, the second season of Catastrophe… and, for me, some episodes of Scandal, Mindy’s Project, and Grey’s Anatomy I’ve missed… but what are you watching? New stuff? Old stuff? I wouldn’t mind some romance. Some comedy. Some Tami Taylor/Rayna James. I mean, where is Lady Grantham when you need her? But psychopaths and meth-making-teachers are sometimes okay, too.
