Books and Coffee

March 2, 2016

Someone recently asked me how I deal with stress. I had to really think about it, because I try really hard not to focus on negative things. Of course, I am a woman and I think too much about things from time to time, but for the most part, I just stay busy. I’m a wife, mom and blogger, so it is not too hard to stay busy. I feel like I am always working on something. When I’m really feeling stressed though, I go for a jog, watch a movie or dive into a good novel. I have always loved getting lost in a good story. It is such an awesome (and healthy) escape. Lately though, I haven’t had a lot of time to devote to my growing stack of books.

Books and Coffee Tee

I remember back when I started this blog, long before kids, I created it to write about our lives as newlyweds and to post book reviews. Back then I was easily reading a book a week. Sometimes more than that. In between work, I would take breaks to read a few pages or I’d read an hour before bed every night and it was just easy to devote time to that because I had the time.

Books and Coffee Books and Coffee

I made a pledge to read 24 books this year. So far, I have read 2 and started a 3rd. I’m already 2 books behind schedule and honestly don’t know if I will be able to catch up. Maybe during the summer when we are traveling? I miss reading, but lately it has been so tough to do anything extra. I feel pretty stretched thin by bedtime and normally still have quite a bit of work to get done. It’s not always doable, but I am really hoping to make it happen this year. I’m determined to meet my goal.

Blush Tie Up Shoes

Books and Coffee

I receivedย this teeย (c/o) from Ilolatees on Esty and loved it! Who doesn’t love a good graphic tee? Especially when it has two of my favorite things on it. I am living on coffee right now and so I felt like it was pretty appropriate for me and my life. I love graphic tees because you can dress them up or down and they are super comfortable and fit my mom-on-the-go lifestyle. I wore it for the first time earlier this week and it was warm outside so we spent a little time outdoors and then I was able to easily transform it into a night-time look by just changing out the accessories!

    Love the jacket, shoes and of course the purse, because I can never have to many purses.

    Such a cute outfit – I really like that tee! I completely understand not having much time to read, as much as I really enjoy reading, there just doesn’t ever seem to be enough time in the day.

    I love those shoes! So cute! I made a monthly book goal too, but mine was for different categories, and it’s becoming pretty lopsided – I need more intellectual/self improvement reads and less fiction. ๐Ÿ˜€

    I totally feel you on the no time for reading – I used to read 30-50 books a year, but lately I just can’t seem to finish one! I set a goal of 12 for this year since I thought it’d be more realistic…. so far I’ve started 2 and finished none….

    I too planned/hoped/dreamed of reading 24 books this year. It sounded like such a do-able proposal. 2 a month doesn’t sound crazy. But I’ve only read 2 so far. Where does all the time go? – Katy

    For starters I love that shirt! I love that you showed the look two different ways by changing the shoes, it really gave two completely different vibes.

    Love those shoes! I agree about stress. I’ve been so stressed lately, so I’ve been focusing on the positives and doing what I love with my free time. And as for reading – I love reading, so when I’m pressed for time, I often listen to audio books in the car or while I’m baking/cooking ๐Ÿ™‚
