September was the fastest month. We are back full-swing into weekend basketball tournaments and the weekdays feel like a blur in between. Anyone else? Last weekend, we celebrated our oldest turning 18 (which also went by really quickly). All of those well-meaning moms who would stop and tell me to enjoy it when they were little weren’t lying. But I’d also like to offer some reassurance to young moms that I rarely heard: It’s really enjoyable when they’re teenagers, too. . .
Keep reading for a few of the good things I found last month.
A substantial glass hurricane for $25.
A white canister set. (It’s described as farmhouse but has more of a chinoiserie feel.)
The morning devotion book I’m currently using.
This dress is a steal–and would look great with boots.
A 3/4-sleeve sweatshirt in lots of colors.
Just finished this book on audio. Highly recommend, especially if you’re 40-ish.
If I could find any excuse to need another lamp. . .
This shacket coat. (Love the plum color.)
These leggings with pockets are 60% off right now. (My favorite brand.)
Current (almost) everyday shoes.
My favorite dress from Amazon. (I’m 5’3″ and it’s a perfect maxi length on me. Styling idea here.)
If you love this concealer (or any of their products), sign up to become a member and get 40% off of Tarte Cosmetics right now with code CYBER. I hate to say it, but lots of great stocking stuffer ideas.

Agree with you on teens (and littles!).

I happen to hate social media, and love the slowness of blogs. I, too, hope we return to weekly or bimonthly, check ins. Let’s skip this incessant posting and pout-lipped posing. I am about to skip it all and go off-grid! I appreciate your breaks and your link ups. I am hoping to have all Christmas shopping done before Nov 15. Any chance I can encourage a gift giving post before then? Specifically for tweens, teens , and grandparents. Thank you, thank you.
I think we all need to go “off-grid” from social media every now and then!
And, yes, I would love to have some gift ideas up before then. Having my shopping done by 11/15 would be a dream!
Love the lion. Very cool!
