Things I’m Loving

Coming Soon

This is my answer to “where did you get that?” and “what are you using for that?” Everything here will be something I actually own, use, read, tried, or genuinely enjoy.

I’m building it slowly, on purpose. A list is only worth reading if every line on it is true, so nothing goes up until I’ve lived with it long enough to say something useful about it.

What will be here

Seven categories, each one honest about what it costs and whether it was worth it.

01 · Home

What went into the 545 house, room by room, and what I paid for it.

02 · Tech

The hardware and apps I use often enough to have an opinion about.

03 · Work

Tools that run the business, with what each one actually costs per month.

04 · Learning

Courses, certifications, and free resources that answered a real question.

05 · Books

What I finished, what I put down, and the one idea I kept from each.

06 · Wellness

What I’m doing at 39 to stay in the game, including what I stopped doing.

07 · Everyday

The small repeat purchases — the things that quietly earn their place.

How something earns a spot

I have to have used it for at least a month. I have to be able to name what problem it solved. And I have to be willing to tell you what it cost, including the times it wasn’t worth the money.

If a link ever earns me a commission, it will say so on the line. That will never be the reason something is listed.

Want the first list when it goes up?

The Build List hears about new finds before they land here. One email a month, nothing else.
