March : Currently

grateful for the warmth of the spring sunshine.

loving lime flavored seltzer water. Helps with my pop cravings.

determined to make the most of the creative opportunities in front of me.

honored that my boss had enough confidence in me to go on vacation for 2 weeks and leave me to hold down the fort.

feeling like I need to go for a pedicure sometime soon.

eating when I’m hungry and stopping when I’m not, which is a huge shift for me that is having a big impact.

asking for your opinion on what camera I should buy: a full frame Canon 6D or the cropped sensor (and cheaper) 70D? Thoughts?

happy that my dad came out of his surgery okay on Friday and is already improving.

accepting my challenge to myself and knocking it out of the park!

watching The Voice and Suits again on HULU.

reading a recommendation from my boss called “Code Name Verity.” I love the friendship portrayed in the story. Can’t wait to really dig into it.

wondering if we’ll be able to sell our Mercury Cougar this spring. I hate paying for a car we’re not using!

wanting to have a date night with my husband soon.

Life at this moment

I am currently:

Drinking…peach iced tea, but contemplating a glass of wine after the long day I had.

Watching…Downton Abbey on HULU while I work.

Wearing…very soft pj’s that my mom gave me and my slippers. Pretty cozy!

Reading…the Bible book of Ruth for my daily bible reading and I have a few books from the library that I’m deciding if I really want to read them.

Weather…has been extremely cold the last few days here. Icy roads and parking lots, but they say its supposed to be 30 degrees again by the weekend, and that’s an improvement!

Wanting…to complete my blog posts about my One Little Word. I have a summary of how flourish was a huge part of 2012 and another post introducing my word for 2013. I’m excited to share.

Thinking… about blog design and coding. Its taken over every spare spot in my brain lately. I wish I could get over this hump of learning and just know how to do what I want to do.

Wishing… for the Seafoam edition of Project Life to be available on Amazon soon. I am going to try it this year, and I think that color story that Elise designed is just perfect.

Feeling… anxious for a new hair cut. I’m in love with Becki of Whippy Cake’s hair. I’ve been stalking her instagram for styling ideas and I’m hoping Hannah and I can get together soon to make it happen.

Deciding…what color to pain the big wall in our house. We have a few swatches taped up, and I think we’ve agreed on the one that we’ll choose. Looking forward to doing some more decorating and making our house a home.

Enjoying… my job. I have so much fun and feel fulfilled in my work, even on long days like this.

Loving…my husband. I’m such a lucky girl to have that guy in my life.

October: Currently

grateful for the countdown of days before I start my new job.
loving working on a brand new MacBook Pro. Its not mine to keep, but still fun to work on.
listening to the HULU shows I am behind on watching as background noise while I work.
drinking water, water and more water…but thinking about getting a coffee.
wearing a sweater for the first time this season.
feeling eager to begin.
eating leftover pasta from yesterday.
waiting for Chris to get off work and come give me a hug.
working hard at training the new girl as best I can before I leave.
thinking about all the doors this new job opens to me.
happy that my sister Megan came for one last visit this weekend before she leaves for Australia.
excited about new design inquiries and customers added to my queue.
enjoying my second to last quiet afternoon alone in the office.
needing to finish editing the maternity pictures I took on Saturday.  I think I got some really cute ones and I can’t wait to share.
accepting that things work out for the best when you leave them in God’s hands.
wanting to remember to savor the ending.
remembering that ‘every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end."
