Going back old school
Going back old school
Tl;dr – I messed this website up when I didn’t renew it, so I’m going back to blogging at my old space – ambercanread.blogspot.com. Want the rambling background about what I did and why I moved onto this site? Then keep reading!
Hi all!
So somehow between having a paid site, not doing a backup correctly, and then letting the paid site lapse, I’ve lost a ton of content here. I’m a little…

Currently : July 2020
Wow. What a year it’s been. That’s an understatement, isn’t it?
I struggled with whether or not to continue posting on here. As you can see, the last time I posted anything was in April. I really don’t know what I can contribute by blogging. But, then I realized I missed writing. I need to get my thoughts out, whether they may seem silly or lighthearted or whatever. Plus, this is a good way to…

Sentence A Day : March 2020
I haven’t participated in this since July 2018! Wow, I didn’t realize it had been so long! Let’s get back to it, and then abandon it again for nearly two years. Ha! I missed a few days of sentences, so fill in those days with any cool sentence that you want to!
1 – A new month and new possibilities!
2 – Char and I both got new glasses on Friday, and I need mine adjusted because the earpiece…

Saturday Sites : 03/28/20
Since many of us are finding ourselves with some extra time these days, I decided to start posting a weekly roundup of websites I discover.* I’m going to try to avoid posting things about the virus because if you’re like me, you already read enough about it and need a bit of a break!
I’m so guilty of being on my phone way too often. Here are some tipsthat I want to integrate to help curb my…

Charlotte’s Chatter : Volume 3
Since Char will turn 4 in April, it seemed like a good time for the next volume of Charlotte’s Chatter!
Charlotte : I’m so mad you’re making macaroni. Me : You told me to make you some! Charlotte : Oh yeah…
Charlotte : Who made this pillow? Me : Aunt Tricia. That’s Mimi’s sister. She’s married to Uncle Nick, just like Mimi and Papa are married, Gran Gran and Pop Pop are married, and Daddy…

Charlotte’s Chatter : Volume 2
In honor of Charlotte turning 3.5 last month (time is flying by!), I thought that another volume of Charlotte’s Chatter was overdue! Enjoy her toddlerisms!

Charlotte : I don’t have a wallet!
One night while we were laying down, I told Charlotte I had a headache and a neck ache. She reached over,…

October 2019 Goals
Even though we’re already a week into October, it seems like the perfect time to talk about my September goals and set new ones for this month, right?
Here were my September goals :
1. Clean off our dining room table : Nope. It’s worse than it was before. Sigh…
2. Clean off our entryway dresser : Finished!! Look at the difference :
3. Get on track with daily routines : Not even…

September Goals
Well, hello there. It’s been a little bit since I’ve posted, hasn’t it? The world of being a school librarian has been extremely busy, plus I just started two of the classes I need to get my teaching certification/licensure, so I have been just a little frazzled for the last few weeks!
I’ve missed writing though! I’ve also missed reading blogs. I pulled up my feed reader yesterday, and I had…

The Daily Dime : June 2019
Time for another Daily Dime post where I share 10 pictures from a day in my life! I haven’t done one of these since March 2018(!), so Charlotte looks just a little different than she did then!
These pictures are from Saturday, June 15.

Charlotte has an ABC mat on the floor of our screen room, so we go out there at least once a week so she can play with them. She’s started…

Changes all around
Hello friends!
I’m popping in with a quick note today about a couple of changes that are happening on here and in my real life.
As of June 28, the name of this website will change back to amberiam.wordpress.com. Update whatever you need to accordingly. 😉 I will also be deleting my Facebook blog page at that point.
When I bought a “business plan” for the blog, I intended to start writing more,…

It’s time to talk books again!
I’m trying something a little bit different this month. If you click on the title of the book, it will take you to the book’s Goodreads page, and if you click on the picture, it will take you to the book’s Amazon listing. Amazon links are affiliate links (click the link at the top of the post to find out more about affiliate links).

Picking : Books to read for a couple of different upcoming book challenges. Book Challenge by Erin 11.0 released its categories on June 1, and my list for that one is slowly starting to take shape! I’m also going to participate in a challenge by abitaboutbooks on Instagram. It’s her #weread…

I’m a week behind on this one, but as with most things in my life, my motto here is “better late than never”! 😉
Let’s see my bucket list for a quick refresher of my goals :
Now that we’ve revisited my list, I can confidently say that I will not finish this list! Here’s where I am on everything…
1. Celebrate our family’s spring birthdays – Done! See you next year, spring birthdays!
#gallery-0-7 { margin: auto; } #gallery-0-7 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 33%; } #gallery-0-7 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-0-7 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } /* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */
2. Create a playroom for Charlotte – No change since last month. In fact, the room may look even worse than it has thanks to some decluttering in other parts of the house. Blah.
3. Finish a course – Big fat nope here. There’s still time to work on this one, though!
4. Go on an Easter egg hunt – Didn’t happen this year. Better luck (and better weather) next year!
5. Participate in Rachel Cruze’s contentment challenge – I didn’t participate along with the official Instagram challenge, but I finally started writing in the journal! I’m going to count this one as a win since I’m actually using it and not just letting it gather dust anymore!
6. Practice brush lettering – I haven’t started this, but I found a couple of fun June challenges to practice my fancy handwriting, so this would be a perfect time to bust out the brush markers and start trying to use them!
7. Spring cleaning – A little bit! I have been doing some decluttering and cleaning up around the house, so things are starting to look neater than they have! I still have a lot to do, but there is progress in this area!
8. Take Charlotte to the Children’s Museum – Nope! Now that the weather is nice, we probably won’t do this one since there are a lot of outdoor activities that we can do. I think I’ll move this one to my fall or winter bucket list.
9. Take Koopa to the dog bakery – This one is a no. We got him a treat from there, but he wasn’t with us. I don’t have any plans to take him there in the next few weeks, so maybe this one will be a spring item next year.
10. Walk a 5K – This one doesn’t look good for me! I’ve been walking a little bit after work, but I’m not ready to take on a 5K yet. I think I’ll move this one to my fall bucket list that way I can spend the summer building up my mileage and getting my body used to moving that much again.
Well, that’s disappointing! Even though I still have around a month left to complete this list, I don’t think that I am going to make much more progress beyond spring cleaning, brush lettering, Charlotte’s playroom, and maybe a course. Surprisingly, I’m not disappointed though! I know that I have done my best this spring, and there have been a lot of life things that have popped up (nothing bad! Just things that happen!). I’ll see how far I get and post my final update, plus my summer bucket list in June!

Another month, another list of books that I’ve read!
The Wedding Date by Jasmine Guillory
I listened to this one, and let me just tell you, there are a lotof love scenes in it. I felt like that was every other chapter…or twice a chapter…or seventeen times a chapter…whatever. It’s a cute story with a cute premise (although a little bit predictable, which says a lot since I rarely ever figure out…

Admiring : Pretty spring dresses! I used to have a lot more dresses, but I think they shrunk after sitting in the closet and being unworn for a while…or at least that’s my story for now! Amazon has some cute floral dresses (too lazy to link) and I’ve seen some cute ones in Walmart, of all places. I may have…
