The personal blog of Beth Kondrick
Hello! I have returned from my blog vacation. While my week away wasn’t necessarily relaxing and restful in my general day to day life, I do feel this last week off from blogging did me a ton of good. I found I even missed blogging pretty much within the first couple of days off, so […]
For Thrift Style Thursday today we’re getting our red on for some red hot style, courtesy of Andrea from Little Did You Know. I’m wearing one of my favorite thrifted items of all time, it’s been featured in Thrift Style Thursday before, this polka dot red dress. I’m also channeling a favorite show today for […]
So you all love it when I speak in metaphors and am super duper vague right? Oh good, cause I’m going to do that again today. If you were following me on the old blog, I wrote a post earlier this summer about a hypothetical bridge I was hoping to cross and then finding out later that […]
So just when it appears we have this parenting thing figured out, something happens that throws us for a little bit of a loop. And from what I understand, that’s pretty much to be expected with this parenting gig for the rest of our lives, we’ll never get it completely figured out. This latest snag […]
Nate and I took this past Friday off to attend the Social Media Breakfast together (it was about beer this month, how could we not go?) and since we had Oliver go to my mom for the day as normal, we decided to take the rest of the day as a “date day” and finally […]
Megan suggested the theme of “Taking Risks” today for Thrift Style Thursday. I’m not much of a risk taker overall, so I wasn’t quite sure what I would do for today, but then I remembered this dress. Now you might be looking at this dress and saying, what is so risky about that? Well, this […]
I haven’t been doing a very good job of reading lately. I’m really trying to improve on this, but it seriously takes me awhile to finish a book. I thought if I actually tried to do some book reviews on occasion that maybe it would force me to read more. I just finished a book […]
So I hate to break it to you, but it’s August. In fact, August is almost already half over. I know, I know. Why am I being so glass half empty, Debbie Downer like? I don’t know why, it just feels like summer is already winding down in some ways. The good news is that […]
Ok first of all – I sort of bombed my “Blog Every Day in August” challenge. Life happens on the weekends and I’m not making excuses, but it just didn’t happen this weekend, so I have bowed out of the challenge. I will have more thoughts on this and balance and all that jazz later […]
It’s no secret if you’ve been following me for awhile that I love the Minnesota State Fair. Nate and I have been going to the Fair every year we’ve been together and it is one of our favorite events of the entire year, it’s practically like Christmas. If it weren’t for the fact that we […]
