2019 Week #2 Wednesday Faves

Here we go full on into 2019!  It was a rough start for me as I got sick on New Year's Day and am still kinda feeling it.  Today the doctor said what I had was either viral or Mountain Cedar Fever, or more likely, both.  I got a steroid shot today, so we will see...I told my friends that steroid shots are nectar of of the gods.  I have high hopes!  But, onward and upward to my Faves!


1) This stuff is the best!! It has helped me get the rest I need (and Walt needs) while I have been sick.  My daughter Hayley found it in our medicine box when she was sick at Christmas and recommended it to me when I got sick.  This is my second bottle!  It's a winner!

2) My friend Donna recommended this trick and I jumped on it!  On January 2nd (because I was SUPER sick on January 1st), I turned all the hangers in my closet backwards.  As I wear an item, the hanger goes back the other way.  Whatever hasn't been worn by June 1st (unless there's a reason why) will be donated, sold, or trashed.  I really want to purge my house this year and this will be a no brainer!

3) Y'all, I have been a hold out for SO long.  I refused to read her book, and when my sweet daughter told me about this "organizing" show on Netflix she thought I'd like because she knows I love organizing (she has not watched yet), I figured out it was the Marie Kondo method and I said, "Absolutely not!"  But, I did.  Now I'm hooked!  Although her lesson #1 is Clothes, I have until June 1st for that....yikes.  I really want to try Donna's method mentioned above.  At first I thought talking to the house and thanking the items you are discarding was kind of weird, but I kind of want to do it!! Ha, ha!  I am loving Tidying Up with Marie Kondo!  She's so quirky cute and inspiring! (But I can't imagine folding my clothes that way....)

4) Wayfair has just gone to the top of my list for online home furnishings and customer service!  I ordered a fun floor lamp for our family room, it arrived quickly, I assembled it and nothing.  It would not work.  I changed out the bulbs, the outlets, nothing.  So I contacted Wayfair to start a return.  In less than 1 minute the funds were back in my Paypal account AND I got a notification that there was no need to send the item back to them!  I was relieved by this because I couldn't even get the styrofoam back into the box and get the lid closed!  The easiest return process EVER!  Wayfair you are my Fave!!

Have a wonderful week everyone!  Be inspired!

  While I did get some random submissions for Faves this week (Larry’s will never happen), I remained on my own. 1) SHOWKOO Luggage Set  I got this luggage set for my upcoming trip (we leave Sunday) because I need to take the carry on and the duffle with me on the plane. I’m trying this duffle in lieu of my usual backpack. I’m excited about it, and hope it’s still a favorite after the trip! 2) Survivor Season 48  While it wasn’t our favorite season premiere, we LOVE Survivor in this house and we love watching it together! 3) Govee Lights  We recently added a bar in our house and my contractor made this light box and used Govee lights. We already have Govee lights around our TV so I was familiar with them and I love them! They can change colors, be put on a timer, etc., all from my phone. There’s a little glitch with this set, so they are going to be replaced, but they still make me squeal every time I walk into the room. 4) Shut the Box Game  My family, as usual...

  Finally home and settled from our Australia/New Zealand adventure. My Faves this week were awesome for me while traveling! 1) Power Plug Adapter  We have used many different plug adapters while traveling, but these were the best we have used! With one adapter we were able to charge everything and I could even curl my hair, ha, ha! Highly recommend! These were compatible in Australia/New Zealand, so I’m hopeful to find some for our next travel adventure, 2) Rothy’s Sneakers  I may have posted these before, but I love love love them when traveling. I own two pair and took them both with me.  3) One Step Behind by Lauren North  I listened to this book (and two others) while on this trip. I had never listened to a book by this author, and I really enjoyed the book. Unique plot for sure. 4) Coach Sling Bag  This might be my favorite of all Faves! I purchased this specifically for my trip to wear on tours/excursions, and I loved it! It has two zippered compartm...

Friday Faves Cabo Edition

Today I’m in Cabo, traveling with my little Andy for the first time. Doing my Faves while he naps.   1) The Business Trip by Jessie Garcia  I’m not even sure how I found this book, and it seems to be the first one she’s written, but it was SO good! I listened to it and there was a full cast of narrators so it was like a performance. Loved the ending! Thought I had it figured out but I was wrong. 2) happyhappyhouseplant on IG  This is my current favorite account on IG. Her name is Mandi Gubler and she is awesome! I literally do not have one live plant in my house, but I’m obsessed with her and almost feel like I could try one! What I like best about her is that her IG stories aren’t long, and she’s very informative and encouraging. Some people I follow go on and on and tell you every minute of their day. I don’t take the time to listen to those people anymore. Highly recommend @happyhappyhouseplant on IG! 3) Apple Watchband from Quince  I love this silver watchband. I...
