Tuesday Things.
1. We spent the weekend in rosemary beach for Lacy’s bachelorette party and it was AMAZING. White sandy beaches! Calm clear water! Sparkling sand! I got to paddle board for the first time and it was the MOST relaxing, calming thing I’ve done in ages.
2. I’ve never eaten at Popeye’s, but yesterday in the airport they had a huge sign that said WE DON’T HAVE THE SANDWICH! Not gonna lie, that sign made me really want the sandwich. Have you tried it?
3. Whoa – look at this pumpkin ruffled milk pie!
4. Have discovered the secret to avoiding Halloween candy: get a sinus infection the week of Halloween and lose all sense of taste and smell. No temptation! As awful as it was, it was nice not having the sugar hangover.
5. Brilliant: take advantage of the time change to start working out early!
6. TV things! What did you think about the finale of The Affair? I just about died in that first diner scene. I LOVED it. Even if it seemed a little goofy and fake and not as serious at the end. Also, as much as I still love a Million Little Things, I haaaate this storyline with Gary and and Maggie.
7. Not sure what it says about me that I still wear my hair like this.
8. What are you reading right now? I’m thinking about starting this book because I love a good cutesy holiday story.
9. I officially programmed all the sirius holiday stations into my car yesterday. It’s TIME. Thinking about putting the tree up too!

Old Noah was freaking me out! They did the best with the ending that they could. Of course we all knew Noah and Helen would end up together. Of course I also wanted that, lol.
OMG I now have Sirius radio for the first time and I MUST get all the holiday stations!!!! Did not know that was a thing!
I regularly wear my hair like that… like for special occasions… :/
Yes–that is still a special occasion hairdo for me too! I just wore it like that to a wedding.
That hair is pretty outdated but maybe we can bring it back one day. I think it needs a few year break, very jersey shore, Paris Hilton 2007( my high school grad year:/ )
I’ve only been thinking about Christmas since September, because
I get to do the stores Christmas window this year!
Currently reading Little Fires Everywhere! For some reason I kept putting it off, the description never drew me in, but I’m about 75% done and can’t wait to finish!
I would consider a “pouf” what people did to get volume towards the back of the pony and the front was (correction: is) “bump.” And I STILL do a bump to this day. I guess at 29 I’ve gotten to the age where I am now out of style. I do agree it was more popular years ago, with very straight hair, but I do it when my hair is looking really awful and I need a little something to get it out of my face but still looking pulled together.
One of my best friends spent summer vacation with her kids in the 30A this year and she said- amazing. like, she’s been to Carribbean islands, lived in Hawaii for 5 years etc.. and she found the sugar beaches fabulous. So now? I’ve been dying to go! Your posts just fueled the fire.
The Affair… I think we all knew when they extended the seasons that what the outcome would be with Helen & Noah.
I love Christmas, but am not ready for holiday music or decor yet. Halloween just finished! i need more time people. lol
also voting for need more time !
oh the hair….i guess we just get in a rut. but i have a good one. today of all days i decided to bust out this curling iron i have never used. the kind where you need a glove and you wind the hair around it. well…lets say i can curl my hair in my sleep with a regular iron but this put me back to middle school. it took me like 30 extra mins. i was late to work. and im pretty sure i have some cross between overly curly poodle head and super straight pieces. i know i just need to practice but ugh who had time for it ? this is why im still pretty much doing the same thing as i was 5 years ago with my hair styling game. and maybe why i have never truly mastered a good messy bun/top knot. somehow i feel like i dont have enough hair to do it write. if i only i was a makeup/hair youtuber and my job was to play with different looks each day !!!! that is the dream but i prob still couldnt use this stupid curling wand properly.
The whole curly poodle hair made me burst into laughter! thank you for the image!
I actually tried the Popeyes sandwich on Sunday. Didn’t plan on going there at all. So it was a happy accident. I got the spicy one, and while it was really good, it was only spicy cause of the sauce. Kinda wish I got the regular one, but it was still so good!!!
Loved the end of The Affair! I just found out about the book We Met in December earlier today. I’m hoping the book club I’m in chooses it for December. I had the Popeye chicken sandwich yesterday. It is delicious. Tastes homemade! The lines in Orlando are ridiculous! My sister actually went there & called me to see if I wanted one! Love my sister. I got the regular sandwich, not spicy.
Oh I rocked the “pouf” in the halls of Waluga Junior High School circa 1993, quite obsessively 🤣🤣
I really liked the finale for the affair. I didn’t love Joanne but otherwise I thought they did a great job. So glad Noah and Helen ended up together. Noah in the cemetery and dancing made me super sad. Probably with my mom so ill it triggered a nerve.
Popeye’s has great spicy chicken, but their biscuits are what I dream about. They’re great for breakfast sandwiches!
I just finished “Ask Again, Yes” and I feel like the only one who just didn’t like the book. It had the potential to be wonderful but was so flat.
