Summer Reading List



I'm very excited that I have started reading more this summer!  When I was younger, I would get sucked in to a book or series and not be social until I was done.  I think the main reason I've started reading more is because I started doing Kindle First for Amazon Prime Members.  Basically you get to choose one book out of six options every month to read before it's released for free.

Some of the books below are on my list because I started a new job this spring, others are there for fun reading.

#1  Boss Bitch by Nicole Lapin
Buy Boss Bitch on Amazon.
Nicole Lapin is hilarious to read (if you are okay with cursing) and her ideas and suggestions are great and educational.

#2  Game of Thrones Series by George R. R. Martin
Buy Game of Thrones Series on Amazon.
Season 7 comes out in just about a week and we are super excited - my brother is posting GoT memes constantly.

#3  How to Be Everything:  A Guide for Those Who (Still) Don't Know What They Want to Be When They Grow Up by Emilie Wapnick
Buy How to Be Everything on Amazon.
Wow, that's a long title.  I found out about this book from an article I read on LinkedIn from TEDtalks and I liked it so much and felt like it described me.

#4  The Hundredth Queen by Emily R. King
Buy The Hundredth Queen on Amazon.
I've actually already read this one but the second one (Fire Queen) is coming out at the end of September and I can't wait.  This one was so good with exciting twists and turns.  This was a free book from Kindle First.

#5  Secondborn by Amy A. Bartol
Buy Secondborn on Amazon.
This book is another free one from Kindle First.  It's dystopian fiction which I've figured out I like a lot.

Friday Finds

Kohl's Essential Tees These tees are crazy soft and comfy while looking nice enough to wear out. Love and Own this one  and this one  in black and lavender. Rachelleea YouTube Organization and Decor Videos Love her wardrobe and decor - I love how classy her decor is (Grey + White). See more of her videos here . Homemade Macaroni and Cheese I made this recipe  for this 4th of July and it was delicious! I tweaked the recipe a bit by adding some buffalo sauce and instead of topping with Kellogg's flakes, I used Hot and Spicy Cheez-it crackers. Amy&Joey Cross-body purse I just bought this purse  from Amazon and it's bigger than it looks!   The tassels are subtle enough that it's not overwhelming. Pewter + Copper Storage Baskets I found these baskets  wandering around Target. I hung two on the wall as storage for our coffee bar. I also use a third in my closet for workout clothes.

Kohl's Haul

Just went to Kohl's and I'm very excited for what I brought home! I got this top that was so cute on.  It has little hearts and lace at the top. These are also my first pair of grey high-waist jeggings.  I wear blue jeans a lot and wanted to get something a little different. I also have on a pair of maroon boot heels by Unisa that I got at DSW on clearance a couple months ago. Top  |   Similar Pants  |   Similar Shoes This top is so soft and comfy!  I have two others that are v-necks in the same material and I love them so much.  This one fits a bit tighter that the others but is still dressy enough to wear to work. I got these black jeans for the same reason as the grey ones - they are something different than just normal blue jeans and these look a bit nicer too. I have a pair of black and cream color block heels that I got from Charming Charlie a few months ago. Top   |   Pants   |   Similar Shoes The striped t

2019 Goals

Declutter and Organize my Home.   I've gotten to the point that I've lived in my house for a year now.  I've started to accumulate stuff to fill my home and it's grown out of the original organization bins I started with.  I need to evaluate if I need to declutter or if I need bigger bins.  Below are my target areas for this goal.   My Office and Library I want to get rid of my desks and move my futon from my guest room into the library.  That means I'll need to go through what's in the drawers and get rid of or move downstairs into my craft room or storage room.   My Linen Closet This is the main area on my mind - I've accumulated more medicine and cleaning supplies during the last year.  Some of my medicine is expired so I know I need to go through that. My Pantry I need to go through my pantry and refrigerator and toss out what's expired or I'm not going to use.   My Craft Room This is the last area I haven't
