In honor of Prime Day next week, I wanted to round up a few of my favorite things that I’ve gotten through Amazon Prime. I know that Amazon is the devil and people should stop purchasing from them. However, there are plenty of small businesses on Amazon that you can (and should) support! In fact, […]
Peek Into My Life
The Happiness List
March 20th is the International Day of Happiness. Amidst all of the darkness and uncertainty, we could use a holiday like this now more than ever. To start, I urge you to do just one thing today to make one other person happy. Call your grandma. Set up a FaceTime cocktail date with a girlfriend. […]
30 Life Lessons for 30 Years of Life
Today is my 30th birthday. Good gracious. I have a lot of feelings about this. I have heard quite a few people say that their 30s is the best decade of their lives. My 20s were reasonably questionable, so here’s to hoping I’m 30, flirty, and THRIVING. Also, here’s to the life lessons I’ve learned […]
Delightful
Happy New Year, sweet friends. I think we’ve all seen the meme/tweet/whatever going around that says to NOT claim 2022 as “your year,” so I’m certainly not going to do that. However, the time has come to look forward to a new year, and reflect on the year that we’ve had. A look back at […]
A Beginner’s Guide to Bathroom Renovation & Dealing with Contractors
For the majority of my adult life, I lived in apartments (or dorm rooms). These places were temporary where the most I could do was to MAYBE put a nail in a wall to hang something, and that was only if I patched the holes before I left. When I bought my house back in […]
Adventures in Gardening: My Raised Bed Garden Journey
Updated for 2021! Part of me has ALWAYS wanted to have a garden. Even when I was in apartments, I loved going to the Spring Black Friday sale at Home Depot and getting something green for my home that I could tend and watch grow. Now, in all fairness, I have not always been successful. […]
The Greatest Office Supplies of All Time
Growing up, I always loved going back to school because it meant all the new school supplies. My folders always matched my notebooks, and my tab dividers were always organized. Now, as an adult, school supplies have become office supplies. I’m a bit of an anomaly at work in the fact that I have to […]
A little update.
Hey friends. You may have noticed that I haven’t been writing as often on Adventures In Nonsense. Though, based on the numbers, you probably haven’t. If I’m being entirely honest, 2020 kind of caught up with me. I had tried to blog and kind of pretend that things weren’t really happening, but that was pointless. […]
My Rover.com Experience
I’ve been going back and forth on whether to write this blog. However, I’ve done my best to approach my Rover.com experience as impartially and as factually as possible. Disclaimer I have used Rover.com for years at this point. I have not found a singular sitter to go back to, so all of Olivia’s “stays” […]
Why You Need A Book Jar
So, I have a confession. I love books. Phew. It feels good to get that off my chest. Growing up, my parents rarely denied me a book. The Book Fair at school was the best! {Especially when my mom worked at the school…I got discounts AND got to go every day.} Over the years, my […]
