While I’ve been 100% committed to shopping ethical and sustainable clothing brands this year, sometimes my favorite shops have a little too much cuteness happening! I can still be selective, but sometimes feeling stressed or feeling insecure gets me in a wee bit o’ trouble. Old shopaholic Jaana leaps in the room all sparkly and excited “HEEE-EYY!” And…
I’ve been having pain in my thumb joints. And sadly, I think it might be from scrolling on my phone too much. The other day my husband asked why I was acting weird and I told him it was probably from having the same conversation with Stevie 7,000 times that day. He said “well that’s…

WELL JANUARY HAPPENED. And it hit us like a ton of bricks. We are still climbing our way out of the rubble, right on the tail-end of the holidays, and so much work and so many appointments and several sick days with no real recovery time and weddings and trips and family and yada-yada-yada. I feel like I haven’t had time…
