High Five for Casual Insta-Friday!

It has been a whirlwind of a week, that’s for sure. And this is one of those weeks where I’m glad I have a blog so I can write down some of what went on, so you know, I can remember it later. And whatnot.

And of course, you can follow me on Instagram to keep up with those little moments of life.

1. I’m featured in the latest print edition of US News & World Report! They contacted me a few months ago to feature me and my story of getting out of debt, but I wasn’t sure if it would happen or not so I didn’t say anything to anyone about it. Well, sure enough, there she is. You can get a copy at pretty much any Barnes & Noble, airport newsstand, or any place they sell lots of magazines.

2. The only good part about doing laundry? Getting buried in the warm clothes right out of the dryer. Yep, I’m under there… with the dog, Tater.

3. I am SO EXCITED about decorating for Christmas! It’s my first Christmas as a wife with a house! Check out the cute stockings I got for us and the dogs! 🙂

4. I CUT MY HAIR. I know, I know. I loved it long, too. But honestly, it was SO LONG and so unruly and I hadn’t cut it in like five years… it was time. So, I cut off 12 inches and I’m donating it to Wigs for Kids!

Here’s the BEFORE:

Here’s the AFTER:

*sigh* no more sock buns for a while…

5. Just a little Happy Thanksgiving from the Stillmans! Love my little family. <3

What are YOU celebrating this week? Happy Friday!

Linking up with Lauren, Jeannett, and Allison!

  2. Molly!!! Don’t get me wrong, I loved your long hair – but your haircut looks GREAT! And for a great cause as well. 🙂 I’ve always wanted to do it but my hair isn’t quite healthy enough, plus I dye it like mad. Anyway….the haircut is adorable.

  15. What a rush to see yourself in the magazine I’m sure…I bet your family is so proud Molly! Love love love the new short & sassy hair! I’ve always wanted to donate my hair, I tried after my wedding (cut off 11 inches) and they wouldn’t except it because IT has been highlighted with bleach. Bummer!

  18. Wow! You had an awesome week! That is too cool being featured in US News 🙂

    And I love the hair cut. Maybe because I just got mine cut and I am looking for some solidarity, but I think it looks great (and like me you probably feel like you’ve lost ten pounds!

  20. LOVE the new hair!!!!! You look awesome. I did the same thing about five years ago while I was preggers. Donating the hair to kids totally made it worth the chop. 🙂
