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

Planning Supplies Anti-Haul
Anti-hauls have been making the rounds on YouTube lately and it got me thinking about all the planner supplies I wouldn't buy. We're constantly posting hauls of new stickers and planner goodies on Instagram, so I'm here to share what I won't be buying. Up first is...
