Simply Breathe

I have broken down and done it.  I have signed up for my very first Stitch Fix.  My normal shopping routine consists of me running to the store to look for some clothes for one or both of my girls, and by chance picking up something for myself.  Trying it on?? What is that? I usually try to at least determine if it will fit in a round about way. On a rare occasion, I will actually have a moment without the girls and I try to fit in all my needed shopping all in one store shopping. I am skeptical about the Stitch Fix program.  Just like I am about most things.  I finally decided to try it.  I left pretty detailed explanations to my stylist about me.  I set up a Pinterest board ( see it here ) for her to refer to.  I told her I wanted inexpensive pieces to add to my current wardrobe.  If when the clothes come I don't like any of them, I can return them easily in the prepaid shipping bag.  So my experience could be wonderful and I end up loving the items, or I could dislike ever

How do you track your books? After beginning multiple books only to find out that I had already read them, I was on a mission.  I am one of those people who just can't seem to reread books.  I figure that there are TONS of books out there that I haven't read.  I like the newness and the surprise that a new book holds.  I found Goodreads.com.  There are a few options out there when it comes to tracking books.  I gravitated to Goodreads.  I like the simplicity of it.  You can track your books and even find recommendations.  There is so much more than I have even begun to use including challenges, groups, and discussions boards.  I also realized how little I read at times.  How can I encourage my students and own kids to read if I don't read much on my own?   Check out Goodreads and follow me!
