We headed out of town for a long-ish weekend, and it could not have been more refreshing. One of our best friends had a birthday, so we decided to head to the Lakeway Resort and Spa in Austin. I stayed there a couple of years ago for her Bachelorette party, so pre-COVID, and we had the best time. This was…
The Bachelor Finale
Warning: Bachelor Finale spoilers are ahead, so consider this your fair warning if you haven’t watched yet. I would say this finale was one for the books – and not in a good way. I’ll get into that more a little bit later in this post. I watched three hours of tv tonight for you. Is there any way they…
Easy Chicken Pot Pie
Welcome to the highs and the lows (literally) of Texas weather. Just two weeks ago we were experiencing historic freezing temperatures. This week, it’s back up in the 70s. I’m still not completely in Spring mode, and I’m gravitating toward savory dishes for dinner still. An easy chicken pot pie was on my menu before the weather turns warm. I…
My thoughts on Farmhouse Delivery
Happy Wednesday! I’m counting down the days until the end of the week, because we have a fun weekend planned with two of our best friends. Meanwhile, this guy has been following me around the house like it’s his job. Ya’ll, I love this dog! He’s been extra clingy lately, and I’m sure it’s because his schedule has been so…
Bachelor Recap: Fantasy Suite Week
Like every Tuesday, I am recapping this week’s episode of The Bachelor. If you need to get caught up, you can read what’s gone on in previous weeks here. If you remember, last week I was concerned with the previews I saw for this particular episode. It showed Matt reconnecting with his dad on screen. And it was just as…
First Weekend of March
It’s so strange to be thinking about what we were doing this time last year. This first weekend of March in 2020 was filled with uncertainty and anxiety as the first COVID-19 case made its way to Houston. It would be my last week working in the office – and our last time getting together with a large group of…
Things I’m Loving Lately
This going to be the most random collection of things I’m loving lately. I had to laugh a little bit because this list has a huuuuge spectrum. It spans comfort and luxury, all the way to my vacuums (which are really taking one for the team lately). So, I figured I’d share – and give you a bit more insight…
Work Wednesday: Managing Work-Life Boundaries
I had the chance to listen to a webinar a couple of weeks ago, and the topic was managing work-life boundaries during COVID-19. We are all facing so many challenges with the onset of COVID-19. Everyone is struggling, but in different ways. Whether you have children or no children; Maybe you are caring for elderly parents. Maybe you are having…
The Bachelor Recap: The Women Tell All
Before I get into the recap of the Women Tell All, we need to address a couple of things. Bachelor nation has undergone some changes over the last several weeks. It seems like Chris Harrison is out, Emmanuel Acho is in. Rachael Kirkconnell was canceled and Rachel Lindsay is off instagram. It’s clear that that the show is in need…
House update
If you are new around here, you can read some background on what is going on with my house here. While we have made some good progress over the last week, there is still a lot that needs to be done. Three of our bedrooms, including our master bedroom, were unaffected, so we are able to remain in our house…
