Reading: I started Then You Were Gone this week but to be honest…I am having a hard time getting in to it. I think Before We Were Strangers was so good I am having a hard time moving on. I hate when that happens!
Listening: Yesterday I started listening to The Boy Who Dared on audiobook. Jury is still out on my thoughts with this one. It takes place during WWII and I am starting to identify with the young boy the story is based on.
Watching: We are still trying to get in to Once Upon a Time. I am enjoying it but I get confused on what is going on sometimes. It does make me wanted to look in to the fairy tale books though like Cinder. Thoughts on those??
Lusting: All of the fall things!!! Mainly booties, like these ones from Target.
Or these from Nordstrom
Or something super fun like these…
Pinning: How to wear boots! There are so many great ways to pair them.
Eating: All of the healthy things, with the exception of tonight. We have had salad for dinner two nights this week and pork chops on Monday. For lunches I have had greek quinoa salad, edamame and nectarines. A shit ton of water and tea too!
Thinking:
Enjoying: Daily chats with my mom. Every two weeks she works days for two weeks and I get to call her on my way home from work. I enjoy that so much!!!! Sometimes we talk about whats going on in our lives, sometimes we reminisce about when we were younger and sometimes we talk about a TV show we are in to. Every single one of those conversations is much needed! Moms are the best, you know??
Throwing Back: To when Mac was a little puppy!!! He turned 5 on the 10th and I was a bad puppy mom and totally let that slip by. One of my friends has a birthday that same day and I just knew there was someone else I was missing!!!
Mac’s first contact with Gracie:
Gracie looks amused here, right?
Happy Birthday Mac!!!!!!!!!!!!
Excited: For a drink with Laura!!! It has been far too long since I have seen her beautiful face.
Happy Friday Eve!!!!!

love that quote! I have that exact one pinned! and i am all about booties- love the fringe ones!
Love those booties!! I need them in my closet for sure!!
Happy Birthday Mac!!
The only think I like about the transition into Fall is all the new clothes!!! Yay for boots and booties! Happy Birthday, Mac! And go you on all the healthy eating, summer is so hard for me! I want ice cream every day all day.
I have booties very similar to the ones from Target, I love them, they go with so much! One thing I learned though was they look much better if I roll my jeans up a bit so there is a little bit of skin between the bootie and my jeans, such as in the picture on the pin. It really makes your legs look longer! I also really love that quote about trying scaring things!
I love booties, but I am never brave enough to buy/wear them. Maybe this year will be the year that I get enough courage to be fashionable for once haha
I love all those booties! I hate when you just read an amazing book or watched an amazing series so then anything you start right after pales in comparison. Moms are SO the best! How do they know everything?! If I have kids one day, will I automatically know everything? Or will I be calling me mom 100 times a day? Haha! Your pups are both so cute. Happy late birthday to Mac!
That would be ‘calling my mom’ not ‘calling me mom.’ 🙂
i love booties in the fall! i have 2 pairs of Toms and they’re so comfy and look great with everything.
So ready for booties! It never occurred to me to look on Pinterest for ways to wear them… Sometimes I don’t know if they look right with my outfit. Moms are the best! I talk to mine a few times a day. Haha. Happy Friday eve, lady! Almost there!
Awww how cute are the puppies?? Dogs age too and it’s fun to look at old pictures of them.
Loving those fringe booties! And if they’re from Target they are probably affordable so you should probably snag a pair (and I will too).
I had one pair of booties last fall and this year I want to get so many pairs!!
Happy belated Mac!
I’m pleased I already secured my booties and boots for the fall.
Very sweet Post! Happy Birthday cutie pie Mac!! I adore my mom, they are simply wonderful and I hate the thought of outliving her and not having her to lean on. I pinned that 20 ways to wear boots today!!! Love your picks, those leopard scream “wear me and go on a date night!!!” Have fun with Laura and celebrate Friday eve!!!
I can’t wait to start Before we were strangers!!
I’m SO ready for boot season! It can’t come quick enough!!!!
All of your healthy eating sounds DELISH! And yay for the tutorial on how to wear boots this fall, I never know what to do 🙂
Those Nordstrom booties are awesomeeee- I am excited to bust mine out soon! 🙂 Good job on the healthy eating!!
UM YES YOU NEED TO READ CINDER LIKE OMG YOU HAVEN’T READ CINDER???
ok but seriously if you like stuff like that, you will LOVE Cinder. if you don’t love Cinder, we can’t be friends. I lent it to Megan and she couldn’t get into it, sobs.
What aren’t you understanding about OUAT? I guess it was so easy for me because I know all the fairytales like the back of my hand.
Give me all the booties!!! I want those leopard ones so bad!!
And yes please to drink time!!! Too excited!!
Aw happy birthday to Mac!! Love your bootie picks. I need a good slightly-fancy/everyday pair of flat low for the fall!
happy pup birthday! i want to hold them–is that crazy to say? i need all the booties, k thanks. happy weekend, nadine!
LOL at Gracie’s expression in those pictures. Jamie was the same way when we introduced her to Saint.
Those fringe boots are right up my alley!
