I broke down and signed up for Spotify premium. I'm cheap and held out for a long time. 😂

I decided to make a capsule wardrobe for Fall WAH. So far, I've bought two sweatshirts, a cardigan, 3 long camis, 5 pairs of leggings, and some wedge sneakers. I don't leave the house, but my mental health needs me to not look like a full-blown bum.

I might treat myself to some Vuori joggers later this month. Or maybe I'll hold off until there's a sale.

I have bought...a lot of books in the past month for my birthday...like at least 20. It was fun. I also bought book shelves to put them on! same. I am not normally a book buyer but so many good ones came out this year and without the library (they are open now, but slower to order new books) I've been buying them

I'm going to buy myself a houseplant! I don't know why but I am laughing at the exclamation point. I don’t know why I am so irrationally excited. That’s 2020 I guess.

I have been getting a ton of indie perfume ads on FB. I think I'll get a bunch of samples soon.

I am going to get the gas fireplace unit replaced. It only sorta worked our first winter here, and since then we had the hearth gated off, because small kids. But we're finally past the gate stage, and I really want to be able to curl up in a fuzzy blanket by the fire this winter.

I am looking at buying a treadmill. I just do not drag myself outside to run anymore. I like doing it in the morning but it's still dark and after 6 months of telling myself I will do it and not, I am no longer going to kid myself. How close are you to metro Detroit, because I'm looking to sell one with minimal use 😂😂😂

I'm going to buy myself a houseplant! You know what? I got my first one a few months ago and it legit makes me happy. Yay, what kind? I finally found a variety that’s not toxic to cats and seems easy enough to grow and has a bunch of different varieties. I found one variety at the local nursery and I’ve been eyeing a few others online.

I bought some new hair stuff so that I'd actually style my hair which makes me feel better and more productive when WAH.

Especially in winter, they can just brighten up the inside so much. I’m getting a Hoya plant. I found one locally so I think I’ll start with that but I’m also eyeing the rope plant which looks really cool. I have a really cute hanging planter sitting empty after my cat ate my last plant. I’m not good with houseplants but I’m excited to give it a go.

In the last 2...? months I have purchased 23 wax seal stamps. I should stop now, I guess. They're all different!

I don't leave the house, but my mental health needs me to not look like a full-blown bum. i love this. i want to do this also. if i have a spare $200 or so i'm doing a full on clothes cleanout in an effort to go capsule wardrobe. i've been wanting to do it for YEARS. might have to wait for Christmas money though.

I was so excited, they are both gorgeous and expensive. Such a score. I think I'm going to hang the hoya from a hook in DD's room. Amazon has some pretty plant hangers and floating trays.

Oh, and since the majority of my 40th year has sucked I think I should rebel and finally get a tattoo.

I'm making myself a post-hysterectomy care package so that I have something to look forward to. I bought a super soft Vera Wang nightshirt off the clearance rack from Kohl's, my favorite Burt's Bees chapstick in Honey flavor, and eyeing up new slippers and a soft blanket. Also debating if I should try to learn to crochet or something crafty or just devote my medical leave to reading and Netflix. I’m sorry you have to have surgery, but this is a wonderful idea. I hope to never need surgery again, but if I do, I will be stealing this idea.

I got a Cricut during quarantine and I’m obsessed, so I buy myself too much stuff for that.

So. Many. Exercise clothes. I have shorts I’ve been wearing for legitimately 17 years. It’s been spread out because lots of staples have been sold out. But I am actually using it all so at least it’s not wasteful.

Lululemon all day erryday I finally splurged on a scuba hoodie. I’m going to be working from home for the foreseeable future, I want to be comfortable (and somewhat stylish?). If I like it I might get another.

I like doing it in the morning but it's still dark and after 6 months of telling myself I will do it and not, I am no longer going to kid myself. I've looked in person at some and can give you opinions. and Peloton is releasing a cheaper Tread in Q1 2021 for pre-order now/soonish. But also, scour CL and FB for used ones too. I'm sure you can find a good deal that way. I love the idea of a peloton tread! I’d caution against a used one though because they’re known to have some issues and the warranty won’t transfer.

I bought a Sole treadmill a couple years ago and love it. (As much as one can love a treadmill.) Eta: I think caer is the one who suggested it to me.

Pizzaslut - we had a Sole for years and it was great. That said, I have the Peloton treadmill now and loooove it. But it’s really only worth it if you plan on using a lot of their running classes.

I got really into watching Cobra Kai and loved it way more than I thought I would. So I let myself binge that.
I'm going to look into investing in really luxurious sheets. My bedtime routine (hot bath, skincare, read, meditation app, sleep) is my favorite part of the day and I want to make it even better lol

This is a joint project between H and me, but we are treating ourselves to... hiring an electrician to finally put in outlets around the outside of the house. Especially on the patio, it's very annoying not having any. And this means I can finally string up the pretty outdoor lights I got last year for the patio.
We are also redoing more of our backyard, and plan to make a new seating area with outdoor couches and an umbrella. I also want to get a projector for outdoor movie nights. I am very excited about our upcoming revamped backyard.

I bought new hiking boots recently after realizing my current hiking shoes are 10+ years old. This sweater even though I have several similar sweaters 😬 (I love a cozy sweater, what can I say) www.nordstromrack.com/shop/product/3056168/madewell-donegal-northfield-mockneck-sweater?color=DONEGAL%20SNOWAnd new exercise top and shorts I’m trying to pull the trigger on a rug for my home office. I almost bought one in the spring, but we halted everything when DH had a furlough. It’d be fine for me to get one now, but I’ve had too long to think about it!
