Life Lately
what I've been up to...
On the bookshelf this week!
A little glimpse into Piper’s day in the life… covering a class with me. She loves doing this because she gets to see so many students at once lol
I had book club on Monday night. We enjoyed a delicious homemade meal, great discussion over this month’s book + lots of laughs with some women that have played a big role in my life. This homemade orange sherbet was my fav!
& we were greeted by a beautiful country sunset afterwards!
I had a really great webinar from my district’s SEL curriculum provider on chronic abstenteeism. I was super impressed, but Piper thought it was boring.
Our early morning walks before school are our favorite!
But no Friday morning walk because it was rainy.
Another perk of early morning walks is we get to see some beautiful sunrises too!
Finally got around to swapping out some pictures for my “meet Miss Rice” board! Students & coworkers can look through this board to see all kinds of things + people that I love & are important to me! This is one of my favorite ways for the people in my building to get to know me a little bit better + it always sparks a conversation! Click here to watch my short instagram reel.
Piper is a whole weekend mood.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year!!!
outfits of the week...
For the past few months or so I’ve started *trying* to consistently share my OOTD (outfit of the day) just for fun! I’m typically able to link most pieces, but I also just share it to hopefully give a bit of inspiration & show you that you can recreate my outfits by just using pieces from your own closet.

what Bethany is learning...
My sister, Bethany, is currently doing the It is Well - Anxiety Bible Study with a group of friends. She is really learning a lot & is going to share a few things each week that really stood out to her!
1. This week was just our introduction week for our next study, so we didn't get a lot into the deep stuff haha.
2. There are more people that are joining which is going to be really exciting for more perspectives!
3. I am really excited for people to share their thoughts and for all of us to experience this Bible study of working through anxiety in a Godly way together!
We just finished up, the Craving Community bible study & I learned so much about friendships. I highy recommend!
in case you missed it...
As you may have seen, I started a new weekly post where I share my Weekly Sale Finds! I’ve been sharing them daily on my Instagram stories & I figured I could compile all of them from the week into one post so that y’all can see them, too! You can click here to read that post.
If you follow me on Instagram or LTK, then you’ve probably noticed that I have really stepped up my game when it comes to collages of sales, outfit inspos & new items. Well, that is all thanks to my younger sisters, Bethany & Avery. They’re “poor college students” & my mom & I were looking for some extra help on the blog, so it just made sense to bring them on board! We’ll be compiling all of the collages into one post each week so that they’re all in one place & to give those who don’t use social media a place to find them! Check out their post by clicking here!
Next up is my Friday fashion favs post!! Click here to read that one. It’s a goodie if I do say so myself. ;)
I recently purged my closets & posted about it on Instagram. I had a bunch of people asking if I’d be selling those clothes, so I created a private facebook group to share them! If you’d like to be added to the group, please send your name & email & I’ll get the link sent to ya! You can either comment below if you feel comfortable, or send me an email at simplysmalltownblog@gmail.com
Follow me on Instagram (@simplysmalltowncounselor) or on LTK (simplysmalltowncounselor) for more outfit inspiration!
