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

I'm a creature of habit without a doubt. At restaurants once I find a meal I like, I'll order that religiously until they take it off the menu. The same has definitely become true with makeup these days as I streamline my collection and focus on quality over quantity....
A Collection of Collections
Ever since I was a little kid I've been collecting things. It started out with erasers. In kindergarten I stole some fast food shaped erasers from the classroom to start off my collection. Years later I would have thousands of different types, sizes, and shapes....
When You Can’t Work at a Desk | My Work Bin
I learned pretty quickly when I started working at home that a desk just isn't my preferred work space. Honestly I don't know how I managed for the years I worked in an office. I'm the queen of the "bed desk" and find myself being more productive lounging. On any...
