Iv been short my entire life like I was never an average height. Well maybe from ages 0-2. I stopped playing basketball when everyone kept growing and I stopped. I learned to climb on the counters at a young age to maneuver things off high shelves. I had a ladder in my dorm room to reach the top shelves of my closet. Did anyone else notice that in Old Navy the larger size flip-flops were lower and the smaller higher up. Like how does that make and sense. Luckily one of my best friends is a lanky lady. My older sister is only 18 months older and my brother is 4 years younger but growing up but everyone would get the ages switched because of my height. So small that doctors suggested hormones shots to my parents, they decided against this because I was perfectly healthy just small. Anyways, all this to give you a picture of how small I am. The other day Julianne Hough posted a video on her Instagram of her in her kitchen. She had an amazing sliding ladder that she was sliding back and forth on dancing. She captioned it something like "and he thought I was going to use this to reach things". I have seen ladders like these in library type rooms but in a kitchen is genius. This is now one of my life goals to have a beautiful kitchen with a sliding ladder so I can reach things!

Remember when you watched Friends when you were younger and you thought they were such adults?
I remember watching thinking it would be so cool to live with your best friends ALL THE TIME, hang out in a coffee shop, get to do whatever they wanted. It just seemed like what the real world was supposed to be like. Flash forward about 10 years and now I am the same age as some of the characters were when the show first started and even OLDER than a few. I know Friends was set in the 90's but my life is nothing like a Friends episode. Yet I still watch and think thats what I want my life to be like when I get older (but wait I am "older"). I was also trying to picture Friends set in present day. The group using dating apps on their iPhones, the group text would be always blowing up, Ross being able to text Rachel to catch her at the airport, Phoebe being able to connect with her mom online, Ursula's stalker could have just done it online and Rachel would totally post OOTD on Instagram! Anyways, I love Friends no matter if it makes me feel like less of a "adult". 1/14/2019 0 Comments BeddingIs it sad that one of my biggest internal debates happens over home decor colors?
You know when I am not thinking about school assignments, what my next job is going to be, will I have to move....home decor is on the mind. It is a distraction for me. When I have 5 minutes or just need a break while writing a paper, I turn to Pinterest. The bedding debate. It is similar to the couch debate. To go white or to not go white. Do you go white and then do an accent wall or a cool bed or pillows? Or do you go with some colored bedding? Anyways, bedding gives me life and I don't think I am happier than when I am getting into bed with some nice sheets, comforter and pillows! |
