Okay, so I didn’t get as much posted in October as I wanted to, but I’m trying again for November! I just didn’t expect October to be as busy as it was. November isn’t going to be any less busy, but no harm in setting lofty goals for myself, right?

appreciating

All of the good TV I’ve been watching recently. My current favorite is a show called Leverage that was on USA like ten years ago. I started watching it because they revived the show recently and I watched one episode of the reboot that I loved. But I knew that I wanted to watch the original series before I started the new stuff. The original series had five seasons with like 15+ episodes each, so it’s taken up a lot of my watching time (which I’m completely okay with). If you love con-men type shows, this is a perfect show for you.

Other shows I’ve been watching (and enjoying) are Pretty Smart (Netflix), Halloween Baking Championship (Food Network), everything Below Deck (Bravo), The Chair (Netflix), Ted Lasso (I’m about to start season 2), and Winter House (Bravo). I’m also excited to start Superstore (everyone keeps telling me how good it is!), One of Us is Lying, and The Babysitters Club (season 2). Anything else I should keep an eye out for?

getting

New work clothes! Now that I have a little more handle on my job and what I’ll be doing, my work pieces need a serious refresh. I’m planning on going to M.M. La Fleur later this month to find some pieces that I’ll be able to mix and match for going into the office and meetings. Luckily, I’m still working from home a majority of the time, so I don’t need that many new pieces. But I’m excited for this refresh!

making

A few needlepoint things for the wedding! I’m probably a little crazy for taking on this task, but I loved the idea of having a few handmade things at the wedding and being able to give them to people as presents. I’m a little worried I won’t have enough time to do everything I want to do, but I want to try anyways. Keep your fingers crossed for me!

sharing

More book reviews. There are so many books that I’ve read recently that I’ve thoroughly enjoyed and must be shared! I’m working on getting things back on the blog and hopefully I’ll get better at Instagram again too. Below are some of the ones I’ve read recently that were pretty good.

wearing

A few old things and a few new things. Retailers are putting out their winter items and I just get can’t resist. I’m a sweater and boots lover, so those have been the main items I’ve been looking at. I’ve also been obsessed with all of the plaid things coming out (as usual). Now, I should probably cut back on what I’ve been getting, but I’ve been a lot better at taking things out of my closet to give away, so I think it’s evening out, right?

Here are some things that I’ve recently picked up (and kept):
