It’s Okay To Want A Day Off

May 11, 2015 Katy Leave a Comment

What I'm about to say might be a bit controversial.  Maybe that's why I'm posting it the day after Mother's Day and not on Mother's Day itself. It's okay to want a day off. It's also okay to think that's crazy. All last week, I saw various posts being shared about "the perfect gift for Mother's Day".  There were a few different options, but one that I kept seeing is that "Mom just wants a day off" or "time to herself".  The comments are divided here, but they're pretty much both extremes … [Read more...]

Books I’ve Read: April 2015

April 25, 2015 Katy Leave a Comment

Did anyone notice that I didn't have a post about books in March?  No?  Well, that's because I didn't actually finish any books in March.  April was not much better.  I'm just in one of those busy seasons of life, I guess.  I do need to be more intentional with my free time, though.  I find myself wasting bits of my day on the Internet far more frequently than I need to. Anyways...here's the book I read most of in March, and finally finished this week. This Is What You Just Put In Your … [Read more...]

Books I’ve Read: February 2015

The Loyalty of Pawns by Theron Couch.  I received a copy of this book for free from a Goodreads giveaway.  Last April.  I'm trying to do better about reading free books right away.  This was one I was catching up on.  I wanted to like this book.  The description sounded interesting enough that I entered the giveaway for it, after all.  But I didn't really like it. The premise is a near-dystopian future in which corporations have just as much, if not more, control of things as the government. … [Read more...]

Confessions Of A Raging Perfectionist: Learning To Be Free by Amanda Jenkins. I really liked this book.  I got the ebook for free somewhere along the line, and finally got around to reading it.  I enjoyed the "stats" that started each chapter (kind of reminded me of how the chapters in Bridget Jones' Diary started).  The book as a whole was really relatable to me.  Not just because I am a perfectionist, but because the author was really honest, and didn't sugarcoat her mistakes and her flaws. … [Read more...]

On Who I Am

August 27, 2014 Katy Leave a Comment

It was the summer after 8th grade, and my family was taking the Disney World trip down to Florida.  We were waiting at the airport, and I watched her walk past.  Clack, clack, clack.  Her black heels slapped the floor with each confident step, her carry-on rolling behind her, her Starbucks in her hand.  She was calm and ready to take on the world at seven in the morning.  She exuded ease and self-assurance, and I wanted to be her. Fast forward fourteen years, and here I am.  I am not a … [Read more...]
