this and that

This and That

Is this really my first post since August 4th?! I was on such a roll! Also, these cute sunglasses were $16.99 at Target.

I’ll never be a ‘professional’ blogger, because I can’t keep a consistent posting schedule to save my life. There are too many lovely distractions: Frankie & Grace and The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt on Netflix; my Enchanted Forest coloring book; dinner dates with my parents; the pile of books I rescued from the used bookstore last summer; quality time with my girlfriends, sweatpants, and bottles of rosé; naps!

Oh, and work. Summer is typically a slow season at the flower shop, but we [happily] missed the memo this year. Business is good, the order board is full, and we’re about three months away from moving into our new space. I haven’t done a thing to prepare for the relocation, besides save a handful of items to an Ikea shopping list, but I’m not going to stress about it until at least September. ;-)

Now here are a few of my bookmarks from around the web this week. Just because I’m not posting on the Internet doesn’t mean I’m not creepin‘ on it!

  15. Ah I feel the exact same way! I’m finishing up grad school, watching Netflix, and seeing friends. Before I know it, I haven’t posted in 2 weeks. Oopsies. I guess we just have to get in a groove again!

  17. I’ve been pretty consistent with blogging lately but with college starting back up soon, I’m sure that will have to change! Anyway, I always love your posts, even if they are a little sporadic :)

  18. Random thought: about consistent blogging, not sure if it’s just me but I find the 2 biggest issues are 1. time- choreographing the right photo for a post takes FOREVER! And how about the time to think up the post, get supplies…. 2. Motivation! When you get lots of new viewers and likes, posting regularly is easy ;) but when there’s a downturn in views, you wonder if anyone is even interested in what you have to say :) Just 2 pennies from me :)

  20. Just starting out in the blogging world here; love this post because its really just a “this and that” kind of post. Nothing to fancy, just real. Also, I love Grace and Frankie so that too!

  22. I totally feel you on the lack of consistent blogging! It’s so hard, especially in the fall when I have school on top of my regular responsibilities. This is the first time I’ve had a blog for over a year – I would get so frustrated with my infrequent posts and usually delete after a few months.
    Also – totally crushing on your flats! Where are they from?
