Happy Saturday! Is this a long weekend for you? We are off Monday, but our grades are due Tuesday, and I have A LOOOOOT of work to do. At least I can do it in my pjs! Anyway, have a good one, and enjoy some of my “Links and Likes” from the week…
Links:
“City on a Hill” – A non-characteristically serious post from Big Mama about our kids, bullying, and Jesus. SO good.
“Dear Clemson (The End)” – Oh man. This one. You probably won’t appreciate this if you aren’t a Clemson grad, but if you are, you might want to grab some tissues!!! This is exactly why a little part of my heart will always be in Tiger Town.
“Doing What You Love Is Going to Be F***ing Hard” – PG 13, but great points!
“Women’s Work: Do I Ever Feel Guilty about Not ‘Using’ My College Education” – Kendra and I have are pretty different when it comes to work and motherhood; but, I love her honest and thoughtful response to this reader question. Great perspective, and I agree with (most of) what she has to say.
Likes:
“What Should I Read Next?” – The moment we’ve all been waiting for (or maybe just me?): Modern Mrs. Darcy has a podcast now!! She has two episodes out, and they are short, simple, and full of good book recommendations.
Speaking of podcasts, if you’re a Bachelor lover, you need to check out “Here to Make Friends” for hilarious recaps from The Huffington Post hosts Emma and Claire.
I’m really intrigued by this product. Has anyone used it or anything like it? A little expensive, but having Sam be able to make his own bed every morning and his room look neat is (almost) priceless. 😉
Hilarious and, sadly, accurate book
I just bought this. I have no good use for it, but I had to. (See Thursday’s post.)
I also bought these booties. Yes, you read that right; I’m, like, ten years late to the bootie party (and Jeff will H.A.T.E. them), but I couldn’t resist. I’ve been eyeing these for months, and they finally went on major(ish) sale. (If you shop from this link you will be helping me grow my bootie collection, and I will love you forever.)
Ok. Eat a donut for me today.

P.S. I heard from several of you saying you bought this shirt after I posted about it last week. The one I ordered (in black) is back-ordered until January 22nd, but if you’ve already gotten yours, I’d love to hear how you’re liking it!!
