February-March Wrap-Up // 2024 Edition

Well, I didn’t intend this to take so long, but here we are. At least it’s getting done. 😝 Hopefully April doesn’t continue the pattern! || Highlights & Lowlights // New bio, new me! I saw some advice lately to Instagramers, and some of it was hard pills to swallow. But I decided to try

December 2023-January 2024 Wrap-Up

Hello, 2024, the Year of Giving

I know, we’re a bit into 2024 by now, but I didn’t want to swamp y’all on the first week. I’ve picked a word for the year for a couple years now, and I always go with the first idea that comes to mind, because somehow it feels more… God-inspired then. ;P I don’t know.

Goodbye, 2023, Year of Restoration

Two posts in one week—I’m sorry. But I didn’t get these written during December. Looking back on 2023, I don’t really know what to say. You know the stereotypical dream where you’re frozen and can’t move? Well, I feel like I’ve just been frozen in time for the past 2-3 years, like I haven’t changed

November Wrap-Up // 2023 Edition

Well, November is already over. I saw a meme recently that said something along the lines of October took forever, but November really breezed by.

Hello, 2023, the Year of Restoration

It’s been 2023 for 11 days. I haven’t been charmed, to be honest. We’ve have wave after wave of troubles and bad news. I’ve been utterly swamped and stressed. But yesterday in my devotions I read, “Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof,” and I’m hoping it’s true for 2023 too. I completely

Goodbye, 2022, Year of Revival

It’s December 30 as I write this, 4:45 in the evening. In a few minutes we’ll be doing our family New Year’s supper. Tomorrow, December 31, we’ll celebrate Christmas with my extended family. Then Sunday is January 1. That feels very clean and aesthetic—a new year, a new month, a new week, starting all at

End of the Year + New Year’s Book Tags

Yo, cupcakes! Today I am back with the annual yearly book wrap-up + new year tags (not to be confused with the bookish recap tag… I know, that’s confusing. But they’re too long to put together, so I separated them. If you’re interested in seeing last year’s end of year/new year book tag and find

November 2022 Wrap-Up

October 2022 Wrap-Up

I have no idea where October went, because I have no idea what happened in October and I did not give permission for November to happen. (If you did, you should be fired.) #obviouslyjustkidding But I can’t be the only one who feels like that, right?? However, time goes on regardless of how we feel

September 2022 Wrap-up

Well, guys, September’s a wrap. I honestly feel like it was June just the other day… but on the other hand I feel like January was centuries ago. So there’s that. I can’t remember what happened this month, but let’s see what I can come up with. || Highlights & Lowlights // The Queen passed.

August 2022 Wrap-up

June 2022 Wrap-Up

So I am reaaaally late with this and ya know, it’s okay. LIFE HAPPENS. (Didn’t mean to write that in caps, but it happened and it’s more accurate.) Also, I really should realize this happens all the time but I don’t, every time… Anywho, that’s enough of that, let’s dive into the… || Highlights &

March 2022 Wrap-Up

How is it already April?? I honestly have no clue how March got past us. It went by so fast. Highlights & Lowlights // I basically took an Instagram hiatus again because I was so confused about what I wanted to do. I still need to write out my new plan, but I think I
