Let's Talk...

I feel so bad, I have been such a flake with posting recently and the past month is when I should have been really focused on getting out content, because....
My summer classes started this week.
And they are intense.
Like, more so than I expected and I'm only a week in.

Also, I just got my Summer schedule for the daycare I work at, and instead of my normal 9:30-5:30, I was switched to 
6:00-12:30... 
That is a huge difference, I've never gotten up that early in my life!  It is a lot better in some ways because I now have my full days free, but it's a difficult sleep schedule to get used to.  

As a result, I've been spending my mornings at work, and my evenings doing homework, or attempting to have a social life... 
This is my last Summer before college after all, so I want to have fun!  But it just makes things more difficult when I need to be in bed early for work, balance homework, and then there is this blog.

I love having this creative outlet, and I'm not ready to give it up, but at the same time feeling the pressure of having to post of Wednesday and Saturday makes me not want to do it, as you all have seen... 
I'm sorry about that.

So for this Summer, I think I am going to go back to only posting on Saturday, and save up any other posts that I have time to write until I'm in college and even busier!
This isn't exactly a solution I like, because I have tons of ideas I want to get out there!  But actually getting the posts onto "paper," so to speak, is my real issue...
So let's try this for a little while and see how it works!

As for the remainder of the summer?
My classes and job end on July 29th, and we leave for Disney on the 31st!! In between now and then I have some family issues to be taken care of, Bible School to teach, weddings/parties to attend and plan, my brother's birthday, and hopefully a beach trip!  Finally, I will be moving in at Appalachian on August 12th!
So a busy Summer to say the least.
But as a result of this busy-ness, I have some pretty cool post ideas!

I plan to do:
  • Love With Food and Ipsy throwbacks that I've missed, 
  • My new Graze subscription I'm going to start in college, 
  • I have another exciting VoxBox (or two) on the way, 
  • Long overdue empties, 
  • Whats in my Beach Bag, 
  • A seven day college countdown (including packing!), 
  • Hopefully a new Disney packing series, 
  • And, OF COURSE my day by day Disney blogs!
I'm going to work hard and do my best to get these out in a timely manner, but please, hang in there with me!

I love you all, and I can't thank you enough for hanging in there with me, so this is goodbye to Wednesdays for now, but it is no where near goodbye!

Last Minute Present: Oven Mitt

This is a super easy (and cheap) present that someone who loves baking or cooking would adore!  I received this as a gift last year and I was so excited!  To top it all off, this present couldn't get any easier, and it could be made for under $10 but is very versatile and can be made as elaborate or simple as you want!   So the basics, you are going to need an oven mitt to put the whole present in, and then a few tools to solidify the cooking theme.  I know for a fact the mitt, as well as the tools below, came from Walmart and can be snagged super cheap. Then you need to fill it with candy and food!  In mine she added chocolate chip cookie mix, hot chocolate mix, and candy canes.  Super simple right?  And definitely something you could run to Walmart right now and put together.  Like I said before, there are many variations you could do with this present!  My mom has a wood burning tool and can burn designs into wooden...

Winter As a College Student

Let me just tell you, there isn't a thing in the world fun about a dorm room in the winter!  On the happen chance that yours is as old as mine (pre-1960s, thank you very much) you probably have radiators too, which personally, I have very little control over.  Even on the off setting they exude so much heat that the room is stifling!  And then you open the window and snow starts blowing in... Yay Appalachian Mountains! Let's just all agree that is quite a process.  So what is one to do to combat these cold (and getting colder!) temperatures? First, I've got two B's for you (mostly because I couldn't come up with a third...)  Blankets and Bedwarmers! Let's face it, dorm rooms are tiny and your bed is the focus of the majority of decor, as well as where you will be spending a large portion of your time (yay Netflix binges!) so you need to make sure it is super cozy! Personally, I have my sheets and comforter that I sleep under every night.  ...

Apartment Tour + Fall Decor!

It's coming a bit late, because by this point I have Christmas decor up, but why not?  It isn't December yet, and I loved my fall decor and wanted to show it off! Entrance and "Dining Room" We did our best to section off the living room/dining room/kitchen area so it had a house feel that trashy college apartment.  We also tried to add all the things we could to make it feel more bright and homey since only one piece of furniture in here is actually ours!  The rest was provided for us. So for the dining are my roommate who replaced her desk chair with a comfy version brought out her chair so we could have 5 seats.  We then added cute placemats which stay out year round For fall decor I added the glittery leaf centerpiece and a few candles, as well as the wine bottles! I painted these, and though they aren't my best I still liked them!  I used twine on the top, stickers from Target around the sides, and painters tape to make the letters, and th...
