feeling happy and so darn satisfied with my life right now
anticipating my upcoming cruise (33 days!)
obsessively researching the stops on our cruise and what we’ll do while we’re in port
reading A Constellation of Vital Phenomena by Anthony Marra
thinking about my spring/summer capsule wardrobe and what pieces I need to make it complete
finished with apartment hunting – we looked at 13 apartment communities, so I think we were plenty thorough
happy with my workouts lately – lots of cardio intervals on the stationary bike & elliptical at the gym and strength training; I am sore and sweaty following each workout, which feels so good
writing for one hour each morning on the weekends
planning to take a social media/blogging break sometime this summer
using a cash budget system effectively this month
hoping to take two more vacations this year (North Carolina and a short weekend cruise)
cleaning off my makeup each night using makeup removal wipes + cleanser and moisturizer, in the hopes this clears up my skin (it seems to be doing the trick)
wanting to dive back into the online dating world (I needed a break from it all, but I think it’s time to get back out there)
working on my blog a ton, so I can launch my new blog theme sooner rather than later
watching Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt
preparing my workload so being gone for a week next month doesn’t put me too far behind (and very thankful that April is 4.5 weeks long, so I can finish up my April deadlines early, and get started on my May deadlines in April!)
wondering if I should get a waterproof case for my point-and-shoot camera for taking pictures underwater during my snorkeling excursion
What are you currently reading, anticipating, and planning?
I’ll be curious to see where you are going in NC! If you can make it Asheville, I highly recommend going there as I LOVED Asheville!
I’m currently reading Will Grayson, Will Grayson by John Green for the read harder challenge (LGBTQ category), anticipating the busy week ahead and the fact that I’ll have strangers walking through my home when it goes on the market, and planning out my travel plans for the rest of the year!
OMG the Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt is HILARIOUS!!! And woo for being done with apartment hunting – can’t wait to see the new place once you move in!
I’m like a broken record these days: currently anticipating Lemon! Unfortunately, books aren’t holding my attention the way they normally do so I’m hoping he comes sooner rather than later. (Not that I think I’m going to have a lot of time to read, lol).
Reading: The Girl who chased the moon. I’ve been waiting for it to come through on my digital library for a few weeks and I’m glad it’s here. I’ve been in a reading slump the last 2 weeks so I’m thrilled to have a book that is once again catching my attention!
Anticipating: the trip this weekend & hoping it goes smoothly with as little drama as possible.
Planning: all the things, it seems. the calendar is filling up, weekends are packed to the hilt and there is so much going on right now! It’s actually taking a toll on me so I’m hoping that I can get in a quieter weekend here and there because my brain is constantly buzzing!
I’m reading “American Sniper” by Chris Kyle. It’s really interesting and well-written!
I’m anticipating my prenatal appointment later on this morning! 73 more days! Eek!
I’m planning on taking a mini-overnight trip with Kyle and Isla at the beginning of May to visit some friends out of town. I haven’t been in a while, so it should be fun!
Loving the first line of this post.
I’m reading May Cause Miracles and anticipating a Houston wedding!
WOW! You seem ULTRA productive! Good for you 🙂 Give me some of that that productiveness, please.
So happy for you that you’re going on your next cruise! Jerry and I obsess and talk about cruising all the time. Hoping we make it to our second one either late this year or early next year depending on how much money we can save and if we feel we can leave Caleb for a few days. We’ll see!
Oooh, can’t wait to hear more about the apartment hunting and what you decided!
My mom and I started watching Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. Only got through two episodes so far but I’m liking it!
I JUST finished reading What Alice Forgot tonight and I’m going to try picking up Americanah again. I started it before our trip but didn’t bring it along because I wasn’t feeling super into it and also it’s such a big book. It is for one of the Read Harder challenge categories though so I’d really like to finish it!
Ughhh, I am having SUCH a hard time with online dating. Everyone around here seems… kind of awful? I hope you have better luck than I do!
So excited to hear more about your soon-to-be new apartment situation.
Ooh where are you cruising to?
So happy to hear how happy you’re with your life right now. Isn’t that the best feeling?
I am looking forward to hearing about how the “cash budget system” worked for you… and I am looking forward to your new blog design! 😉
I am currently
reading “To Kill A Mockingbird” (Postal Bookclub – hint, hint)
anticiptating the weekend (always!)
planning the trip that I’ll be taking this summer with my family! 🙂
love this. you have so much going on, i love it.
and i’m currently reading a janet evanovich book, it’s the first book i’ve read since february!
Yay for another cruise on the horizon. I wish I had a definitive trip planned. It’s always a nice thing to look forward to.
I’m glad to hear you’re happy and satisfied with your life right now. I’m hoping to feel that same way soon!
