Omg what a month July was! It was jammed pack full of fun and exciting things, starting with a trip to Dallas for a long weekend over the Fourth of July weekend where my boyfriend and I met up with our friends to go to the Taylor Swift Exhibit, complete a ropes course zip line [...]
We're halfway through the year for our reading challenges. How are we doing? Are you still on track to hit your reading goals for the year? I think I'm doing pretty well since I stuck to the same reading goal as last year, even though I surpassed it pretty well by the end of 2022. [...]
Happy Nordstrom Anniversary Sale to everyone! As of this morning, everyone can shop the sale and I'm so excited about it.
