Super Comfy Shoes with UINfootwear

 




My footwear choices have changed a little bit in the several years. I’m at home a lot more often with homeschooling and I need something comfortable, quick and no fuss. If they are comfortable AND lightweight then that’s a bonus! 


Recently, I was able to partner with @uinfootwear and give one of their footwear options a try! I really love all of their VERY unique styles - just check out their website and you’ll see what I’m talking about. To make comfortable shoes is uinfootwear’s ultimate pursuit.


I also have a coupon code for you! Just use “jessicauwnc” for $5 off any shoe purchase.

Good Books I've Read Lately

I don't get to squeeze in as many books as podcasts into my daily routine but when I do I want to make sure to share with you guys the ones I like the best.

If you don't know by now, I'm a bargain hunter. Or cheap. However you want to say it. I rent all of my books from the library! You can rent audiobooks from the library too. I listen to audiobooks on the app called Overdrive. It may mean that I have to wait a little longer for a new release but that's fine with me. I have plenty of podcasts to listen to!



This first one was recommended to me by a friend and it was a great recommendation! Behind Closed Doors is a psychological thriller but it's not a overly scary thriller. At least I don't think so. I mean, it's not going to be like the movie SAW let's put it that way. More of just a really good story that unravels slowly.


Here is a summary of the book from the amazon website:







I enjoyed this autobiography from Chrissy Metz. I listened to the audiobook and Chrissy narriates it herself. It was easy to follow, entertaining and I appreciated her honesty. She takes you through her early life and the beginning of her career. She offers some self help advice along the way. 





The author J.D. Vance goes into depth about his family's history in Appalachia, how they moved from Kentucky to Ohio in search for work and how they all continued to meet obstacles no matter how far and hard they tried to escape being poor. I really enjoyed the author's writing, his honesty and I also liked being challenged to think about social and economic topics that effect Appalachia.

Vintage Teddy Bear

 


It's getting harder and harder to find a good vintage sweatshirt at the thrifts anymore. I was lucky to fin this one! I found it at a store that has insane prices too. They still have everything marked under $5.00!!

All Cozy!

 


I had to quickly run to the mall to grab some Bath & Body Works 3-wick candles that were on sale for $10.25 each - that's a good deal! I wore everything cozy. Cozy sweatshirt, fleece lined leggings and sherpa lined boots!!!
