Hi, I'm Chelsea! I’m on a mission to help you find joy and goodness in every day.
On this blog we talk about the big things (like chasing dreams) and the small things (like what books we're reading) because happiness comes in all sizes.
Having things to look forward to is so important. Sometimes they’re big, sometimes tiny, sometimes coming soon, and sometimes coming at a who-know-how-far-away date. But the excitement of looking forward to things (while still enjoying the present) makes life better. Here’s a few of my things:
Today! My best friend got hired to shoot fall content for Sandy’s (aka, my favorite store in Gainesville) and I’m gonna model fall clothes for her! We will follow up with tacos, because obviously.
Paying off allllll debt. I’m officially adult enough that paying credit card payments feel good. I’m so looking forward to the day I don’t have to make those anymore!
October. The most magical month, second only to December.
Christmas with Jack. Speaking of December, I can’t even think of this Christmas with Jack without almost crying of excitement. He’s SUCH a fun age, and I think it’s gonna be the best one yet.
More pumpkin. The list of pumpkin things I have already tried this month is long. The list of pumpkin things I still want to try is even longer.
Finishing writing a book. I love writing, and I’m itching to write this book. I’m working on it! Little by little, here and there, middle of night on my phone, early in the morning on my computer.
Jack sleeping through the night. Will he sleep through the night or move to college first? Jury is definitely still out.

What a great list! And I’m sure he will sleep through the night. Definitely before college. Hopefully by high school. 🤪
I mean, here’s hoping!
How fun that you get to go model some clothes! Hopefully Jack will start sleeping through the night soon, that has to be exhausting! I am ready October, bring it!!!!!
I’m so excited for October!!
Yes to pumpkin and October!!! What a fun photo shoot for y’all! I can’t wait until our debt is gone. I’m definitely looking forward to that day. I’m looking forward to our trip to Tampa to see my bff AND all the time we’ll have at home to organize and nest before baby arrives!
YAY! I’m so excited for you to get some bff time!!
My birthday is this week! 🙂
HAPPY BIRTHDAY WEEK!!!
Good for you for writing a book! That’s amazing. I’m looking forward to all the fun fall things- we already made our first visit to the apple orchard yesterday and enjoyed an apple cider slushie. So dang good!
oh my gosh that sounds DELICIOUS!
Wonderful list — especially the paying of debt bit. That is such an amazing feeling! Debt is the worst. I think I am most looking forward to kicking fall into high gear and finding a new place to live ♥
I’m so looking forward to having it all paid off! YAY fall! And a new living space!!
I’m with your friend Lauren, my bday is this week too! Definitely looking forward to all the lowkey hangs surrounding that.
