WELCOME
This blog has been around in one form or another since 2010. It’s an amalgamation of who I was, who I am, and who I’m hoping to be. Sometimes it’s about beauty products. Other times (most of the time) it’s about planning. Occasionally there’s business stuff and even rarer board game content.
So thanks for stopping by, reading somthing long-form in a world of fast information, and hanging out with me on my slice of the internet.
Sincerely,
Kayla

What I Bought in November/December
With the holidays keeping me completely swamped, I made only a few purchases in November and December. I've worked hard over the years to curb my shopping addiction and would consider myself a pretty minimalist purchaser. I'd love to know what you bought in...
5 Realistic Goals for 2022
I'm not going to kid myself with workout or budget related goals. 2022 is going to be the year to go easy on ourselves and the same goes for goal setting. I picked five realistic goals that you can adapt to fit your lifestyle. Read 52 Books Now this may seem like a...
I’ve Read Over 60 Books This Year. Here are the Top 10
I wanted to read 12 books in 2021. I made a list of to-do items (i.e. a list of goals but named differently to trick myself into thinking of them NOT as goals) with it smack dab at the top of this list. I may have outdone myself with this one. There are just a few...
