Last weekend we drove to my hometown (Baraboo, WI) to visit my parents and celebrate Zoe's birthday. I'm contemplating sharing a quick recap of what we did and where to find my favorite burrito. Would that be interesting to you? Trying to share a bit more about me personally, but before I write that post, let's discuss what caught my eye[...]
My adult ADHD is really hitting hard these days. I sat down to write a post and suddenly I'm culling through old magazines or peering into the fridge thinking about all the laundry I need to do. So what a better fitting post than some Beautiful Distractions, am I right? 1 - This morning while procrastinating from sorting my magazine co[...]
So many things have caught my attention and pulled me in this direction or that direction. Sharing what has been on my radar and getting me a bit distracted on the web. First and foremost, shoutout to Fast Company for the feature on my TikTok journey. During 2020's chaos and quarantining, this somewhat controversial social media p[...]
Have you had an onslaught of, "let's get together" phone calls? My friends are fully vaccinated, the weather is gorgeous, and the kids are back into sports — travel soccer, gymnastics, the whole shebang. A slower re-entry into normal life might have been more welcomed rather than jumping in head first, but I'm here for it. I've missed b[...]

During a Clubhouse chat, I discovered a new furniture company - Four Hands - and I'm obsessed! Check out their latest lookbook of drop-dead gor[...]
Happy Monday! Boy, do I hope you are warmer than I am. We're in a deep freeze here in Chicago, and the only way I've been able to stay cozy is under my electric throw blanket (best invention ever!). I originally bought them to sit outside for a driveway cocktail with the neighbors, but it's even too cold for that. I also noticed that I[...]
Happy Friday! How was your week? I'm assuming we are all on the same page because I'm absolutely thrilled it's Friday! Eager for a little downtime. This weekend we have no plans which is AHHHHHHHmazing. You'll find me on my yoga mat, spinning in my home gym, or playing dominos with The Boy and kiddos. Plus, I've picked up a new hobby! I'm[...]
I don't know about you, but my schedule seems to have suddenly kicked into high gear. It's back to school with a new routine...distance learning means making room for at-home office. However, I have still managed to find some beautiful distractions. Here's what has caught my eye and more interior design trends I'm loving. A few weeks a[...]
I'm sitting in my office trying to psych myself up for this weekend's project. It's not going to be a fun one. The Boy and I will be rolling up our sleeves to Konmarie the kids' rooms. You may have seen Cooper's bedroom mood board here and Zoe's pretty in pink bedroom here. The wallpaper was never purchased or hung in Zoe's room, and she'[...]
