Millennial Pink Isn’t Dead
It just isn’t “trendy” anymore. Ever loved a fad, and was sad when you were told it was out of style? I’ve never been one to be good with staying up to date with the latest trends, at least in terms of fashion, or home decor, and no I’ve never owned a real designer handbag, unless I’m a better thrift store shopper than I thought! I have found things I liked by looking at trends, from deep florals, to champagne tones, to the beauty of a black and white pallet, to how I curated my pseudo mid-century modern aesthetic. But to a large extent, I don’t make a point of…

Peopleships
This was a term we made up at camp when I worked there – it was to describe any kind of human connection really from family relationships, to couples, to friends, to colleagues, your church congregation, and everything else. As a team, we realized it was a helpful way to describe these instead of relationships at camp.

It’s about exercising or seeking power in the governmental or public affairs of a state, municipality, etc (to quote Dictionary.com). That all takes influence, from campaigning to meeting people, to…

The Biggest Danger of Shopping Clearance/Specials/Going Out of Business Sales
The “it’ll be gone next time” dilemma. I recently bought a couple of things, not huge ticket items but between it all I had spent a little over $100, I had found some items on clearance, and wanted to make sure I got them. I quickly returned most of it, I still have a few items sitting around to decide on, but I realized the deal was half the reason I was buying them. Now don’t get me wrong clearance is still valuable, and I would’ve used the stuff, but what I (and my Mother) remind myself of is that there will always be more deals. They’re will always be…
