Sunday Currently: Volume 2


Reading  Still no books! I have been reading a lot of blogs though, there are just so many good ones out there!
Writing  A lot less this week. There is one post I've been working on for a while, but it's still not quite done. I need to start drafting more up though, because I definitely feel a difference in how motivated I am when I'm writing a lot, or when I'm not writing much at all.
Listening  I was listening to Dane playing the guitar (he's pretty great!), but now I only hear my dishwasher. I guess he must have found something else to do.
Thinking  About all the projects I want to get done. I might even start some today. It seems like a good day for being productive!
Smelling  Pancakes. I made them the last two mornings because we had strawberries to put on them! I have decided that is one of my favorite ways to eat them, it seems healthier and more fresh that way, for some reason.
Wishing  We had our taxes back already! I would love to take a trip to Idaho to see all of my family, but I probably won't be able to until we get those back. We're getting there though, hopefully we can get them filed this week, and get our returns in time for me to go for spring break.
Hoping  The weather stays as nice as it has for a while! It really perks me up when it's not all dreary outside.
Wearing  Pajamas still. Even though it's after noon. That's what happens when you sleep in late! I've never been one for getting up and around quickly in the morning, and especially not on weekends!
Loving  I'll say it again, all this sunshine! It has warmed up quite a bit lately, and the last two days we've woken up to clear skies. February is always really nice around here, for some reason. It makes for a nice break up of the rainy months. When it rains in the fall, and in the winter, and in the spring, it's great to get a chunk of time where we can shake off those rainy day blahs!
Wanting  To go outside today. I think maybe disc golfing (if you don't know it, look it up, it's awesome!) and playing with my little mutt are on the agenda.
Needing  To catch up on my dishes. We're on one load of at least two that need to get done today!
Feeling  Really great today! We had a fun weekend, and got to hang out with a lot of our friends. I love weekends like that, but I also love just spending time with Dane, and that will probably be our plan for today.
Clicking  On youtube, watching the Kid Snippets and Kid History videos! You should click here, this one is my favorite. They are so, so funny!

Linking up with Lauren today!

Foggy Mornings



I spent this foggy Friday morning in the best way possible. Curled up under cozy blankets, drinking my Dutch Bros, and watching Netflix. All the while letting my hair soak up some olive oil! Such a nice and relaxing way to start my day, especially since it started at 5:20 this morning! I hate it when that happens!

This weekend is going to be semi-eventful. We have a wedding to go to tomorrow evening, and that is our major plan for the weekend. It's about an hour away, and we still haven't decided if we're staying the night. I'm excited though, but mostly because it gives me an excuse to dress up!

This means that I have to go buy a wedding gift this afternoon, so I will be doing that and running some errands (bleh, bills!). Hopefully I will have some projects to share after this weekend too! Wish me luck. I hope you all have a great weekend! Do you have any fun plans? Let me know!

Happies and Crappies Friday!

Scissors and a Whisk: Happies and Crappies Link Up



Happies
  1. I got to go to work this week, even if it was only for one day. It was great as usual, and I really don't want this to come out as conceited, but they like me a lot down there! It's just nice to know that I'm appreciated for the work I do, and to know that they enjoy having me around as much as I enjoy being there. I love that I've been working there long enough now, that a lot of the kids know and recognize me! 
  2. We had some of our friends over for the Superbowl, which was a lot of fun. There was a lot of good food, and we all had a good time. I just  wish I had taken some pictures!
  3. We've had a couple of days of sunshine, with temperatures in the high fifties! It was so, so nice! I don't realize how much I miss that sometimes until it actually happens.
  4. It's been a good mail week for me so far. I got some t-shirts from JC Penny, that were only $6 a piece, and today I got my swim suit that I ordered off ebay. It's a bikini, so no one besides hubs will probably ever see me in it, but I scored a great deal, and it was only $7! That includes my shipping!
  5. I watched a very touching documentary, recommended by Maddie, called Monica & David. It's about a couple with Down's Syndrome, and it follow them during some of their first year of marriage. I love how it proves that love is such a powerful feeling, and even those with disabilities are more than capable of feeling and expressing it. They were so cute, and normal, in the ways they showed their love for one another. It was very good, and it's available to stream on Netflix, so if you have a chance you should watch it for sure!

Crappies
  1. I have been mowing down on leftover Superbowl cookies all week long! Not only has that made me feel totally sluggish and gross, but I'm getting terrible heartburn. Hopefully now that they are gone, I can start eating a little cleaner. I can tell that I definitely need it. 
  2. Speaking of food, I have been feeling totally uninspired in the kitchen lately. I can't seem to come up with good healthy recipes, and the few times I do, I run out of the motivation to actually make something. We've ate a lot of processed food this week (rice-a-roni, frozen pizzas) and I want to come up with some new things that will be quick and easy to make, while still being healthy. I will probably need to come up with a new set of grocery staples, and I think that's probably been the biggest thing holding me back. 
  3. I still haven't started on any of the Valentine themed projects I wanted to do before next week! Hopefully I will get some done this weekend, since nothing I plan on doing is going to be very difficult. Mostly I just wanted to do up some home made cards, so I need to get them going soon!
Alright, so there's my week, now go link up with Sarah and Stephanie!

Oh How Pinteresting Wednesday: Valentine

Today I wanted to share some of the Valentine's ideas I've been thinking about. I'm really excited about it this year, for some reason, and I want to use it to let everyone I'm close to know how much I love them! I feel like this is a good way to celebrate, whether you're single, dating, married, or whatever. We all have those people in our lives that we love more than anything, but, if you're like me, you don't let them know nearly often enough. These are some of the things inspiring me lately.
