We have so many things in our homes and in our lives that are no longer bringing us joy or serving us. We hang on to these things because we are use to it, or we think that these things have some sort of value, but if you don’t love it there’s no point in hanging on to it. This is the perfect time to evaluate the things in your life and figure out what you really need and what you really love. Here are 17 things to get rid of this year and my tips for making intentional purchases.
I’ve had my Fitbit Versa Special Edition version since the end of July. It’s been just over 4 months and I wanted to update my initial review. When the Apple Watch Series 4 was released this September, I researched and debated getting it but ultimately decided to stick with the Fitbit. Here’s my updated Fitbit Versa review and the reasons why I didn’t switch to Apple Watch Series 4:
As the end of the year gets closer, I like to start planning for the new year — what goals I want to accomplish, things that I want to cut out from my life, and just overall improvements I want to make. It’s exciting to start fresh on the first of the year and know that you have a “clean slate”. Of course you can start a new goal at any time, but a new year definitely brings a special kind of motivation.

I think most people understand that it takes money to do things — get food, clothes, have a place to live. Money is a tool to help you do the things you want to do and have the things that you need/want. But I hear some people talking about “not knowing how much money they have” or “avoiding the mailbox/inbox so they don’t have to look at their bills”.

This post will explain a few reasons why you definitely should have a budget, how you can make one, and a few ways to consider cutting costs.

I have a ton of cases that I swap between, but I am always on the lookout for super cute new ones — here’s a roundup of my personal favorite iPhone cases that I love and also some new ones that I want from Casetify.
