Hill House Vintage- A New Book
And it’s Wednesday. I have had such a busy week. This week I am filling in for my friend as she takes a trip to Tahiti to celebrate her one-year wedding anniversary. I am so jealous but she has no kids and can take journeys like this. I am sure that she is enjoying herself.
This week has been swamped with meetings, new cases to learn, keeping track of my staff, preparing for a new U.S. Attorney, and trying to plan a Christmas luncheon with the ladies that I supervise. Not to mention I have to put my Christmas trees up this weekend. The carpet crew is coming back to finish my steps this weekend and I need to clean my step-son’s/ husband’s mancave. They have completed trashed the room!
Tomorrow is a holiday but I still have to take my new car in for repair. I had it shipped here from another state and when they pulled it off the truck someone backed into something and put a dent in the bumper! After my car repair, I am hoping to tackle my step-son’s room but we will see. I am glad to be busy right now. We are still grieving the loss of our dog Deacon. Goodness, we miss him so much!
Okay, let me share my new book purchase!

I ordered Paula’s new book Hill House Vintage! It is a wonderful book with beautiful photography from Paula’s home. I am still in the intro part of the book. I have only been able to read bits of it but I love how she talks about her childhood. And her childhood home is a dream!
Another quality that I love about Paula is her honesty. If you follow her on Instagram you will read in some of her posts about how she struggled with depression and had a hard time trying to find her way. I love how she turned her passion into a business! That is my dream ultimately. I want to create beautiful home decor, clothing, etc. but we will see what the Lord has planned.
I simply love this photo! It screams, I am me and I am free! I hope you all got to see her recent video on Youtube. They are always so tastefully done!
I hope you can pick up a copy for yourself. I can’t wait to get more into the book. I will promise to share any tips and tricks that she discusses. I will confess that I have another book on my radar as well. I saw that Aerin Lauder shared her new book about her grandmother Estee called Estee Lauder: A Beautiful Life. I am hoping to snag this in a few months. It looks exquisite!
Have a wonderful Wednesday!
Mrs Shockley I need it to be Friday at 6pm right now. Oh dear my week has been long, busy and unnerving even though I took Monday off. We’ve had a significant shakeup in the office. I’m being reassigned with several others including my direct manager to a new client. I’ve been with this client nearly 4 years. I can do the work in my sleep. Totally blindsided by the news. Everyone is being tight lipped so I’m not even sure what happened. I’m grateful that I still have employment. I’m trying to have a positive mindset that I’ll be learning something new. I can’t help but think something drastic had to happen and it’s not good. We audit insurance claims for multiple companies and this was one of our major clients. I can’t help but be a wee bit anxious. Changes do happen, we must move forward. I recently found Paula’s channel from a previous post you mentioned her. What a gem she is. I didn’t know she had a book. I think I may have to treat myself to that. 💕🍂🍁
Oh no! I hate those office shake-ups. They are never fun and you feel like a sitting duck! I hope your new assignment works out. Sometimes when things like that happen I try to trust that the Lord is up to something and that maybe, just maybe, he is working this out for my good. You’ll have to update me on your new assignment!
