Currently

I don't really have anything specific planned for today's blog post, but yesterday I came across an old hand-written note from probably two years or so ago, where I listed out all the "currently" prompts for a blog post. So I think today I'll just be doing one of those... They're quick and fun, and I actually really like them (both writing my own and reading other peoples'), so here we go!

Eating // Apples & Cinnamon oatmeal, with PB2 stirred in. If y'all haven't tried putting peanut butter in your oatmeal, I would highly recommend doing it! It is amazingly delicious, and it makes it so smooth and creamy.

Drinking // My morning cup of joe. With some yummy creamer in it - that I think it called caramel sundae or something, but I'm not 100% on that one...

Missing // My husband! The twins had their tonsils removed yesterday, so he went up there to be with them. I didn't have enough time off work, so I couldn't go, and now I'm really missing that man of mine. It's harder than I thought it would be being at home without him for a few days.

Reading // The Game of Thrones series on my Kindle PaperWhite. I just started book four ("A Feast for Crows") on Tuesday. The series is really good, but it's just so dang long! My goal is to finish the last two books by the end of May. Because y'all, I've been reading them since like December! I'd say I need to wrap it up soon...


Watching // Parenthood on Netflix. Well I mean not right this second, but you know what I mean. I'm about halfway through the second season, and it's just so good. I might have teared up a bit in one of the episodes I watched last night.

Wishing // I didn't have to go to work today, and could instead be outside enjoying the beautiful sunshine on this lovely day.

Planning // To go back to kickboxing again tonight, for only the second time! But this time, my friend Angie will be coming too, so I'm pumped for that! Also, I'm going to make sure I wear my Polar Heart Rate monitor, because I am really interested to see how many calories I'm going to burn.

Listening To // Country radio station (WTNT for you locals).

Craving // Sushi. I feel like every time I write one of these currently posts, that's always my answer. But it's true, and I want it so bad now. Haven't had it in months but it feels more like years at this point.

Wearing // My very favorite bright turquoise dress. It's just so bright and colorful, and I love it so much.


Excited For // The two weddings we'll be going to in the next month! One is for one of my old friends from college, so we get to go back to St. Augustine for the weekend! The other one is for a new friend-couple of ours that live in Atlanta, so we get to road trip up there too!

Smelling // My perfume-of-the-day: Light Blue by Dolce & Gabbana. My Grandmother bought it for me for my birthday or Christmas one year, and it's seriously one of my favorites.

Feeling // Annoyed. I just realized all of my old posts that had links back to other older posts, those links no longer work. I was able to transfer all the old posts to my new blog, but now those old links with the old URL are all invalid. So if I want them to work I will have to manually update them to my new URL address. Gross. Would that even be worth all the trouble? I'm not so sure...

Anticipating // My husbands return home tomorrow night! He won't be here till probably 9pm, but at least he'll finally be back. And hopefully we'll never have to do this kind of thing again. I also now know we could never be one of those long-distance couples. Kudos to y'all, but I can't do that.

Please feel free to do a post like this of your own, and then let me know so I can check it out too! Enjoy your Thursday ladies :) I'm going to try to have a good day and a positive attitude no matter what. Try it out and maybe it'll turn your day around!

Perfume, Pictures & Plans (Currently I'm...)

Thursday. One more day before Friday, and then the weekend. Ahhh it's so close I can almost taste it. Right?! Anyways, I love doing these "currently" posts, and it's been quite a while since I've done one. So guess what? That's exactly what I'm going to do today. (Big surprise right? Not like that was actually hard to guess or anything.)

- Wishing: that I didn't have to work today. Jeff took today and tomorrow off to hang out with the boys, and I wish I could have done that too. But I'm OPS (hourly, not salary) so I don't get paid if I'm not working. And I need to get paid...

- Wearing: the pretty pearl necklace my sister gave me as part of my bridesmaid gift last month

- Listening: to Lady Antebellum's newest album 'Golden' on repeat allllll the time. It' so good!


- Missing: my friend, old roommate and bridesmaid, Bridget! She lives in Ohio, so it's not like I see her often, but we have a phone date scheduled for tonight, so I'm excited for that!

- Obsessing: over Gems with Friends on my iPhone. Seriously guys - I think I might actually be obsessed with this game. Get it, and then add me to play: Halez88.

- Craving: sushi again, and I just had it last night. (Not low-carb, I'm aware, but I don't care....) But that's what seems to happen with me though - once I eat it, I crave it again and again and again. Oh, but this was a new place we tried, and liked it a lot. Great prices too, especially for dinner-time sushi. Definitely will visit this place again.


- Planning: a wedding, duh! No but seriously, once the boys go home for 2 weeks, that's 2 weeks full of go-go-go wedding planning time.

- Ignoring: the huge stack of mail that I need to go through. I hate getting junk mail, and I hate having to go through it. I know there's some bills in there though too, so I guess I really do need to get on that.

- Anticipating: Going back to the pool on Saturday for some water and sunshine, and Wild Adventures on Sunday!

- Loving: that the new camera we ordered finally came in last night! We had talked about getting a new one for the honeymoon, and when we saw a great deal on Groupon, we snatched it up real fast. Can't wait to test it out later tonight!


- Reading: 'The Hobbit' and really liking it so far, although I'm only about 50 pages in. I've seen the movie a couple time already though and loved it, so I'm pretty sure I'll like the book too.

- Procrastinating: laundry. I always hate doing laundry. Hate it so much.

- Feeling: dumb because I locked my keys in my car last night, again. This is probably my worst habit - I get to where I'm going, but I'm not ready to get out quite yet. So I turn off the car, and pull the keys halfway out of the ignition. I sit for a minute or two or gather up all my stuff, and then exit the car, lock the doors, and leave the keys still hanging from the ignition. I've got to figure out a way to break that bad habit. (Luckily, I have the greatest fiance ever, and he drove over to my house with his spare before work this morning.)

- Smelling: same as last time I did this in January, my favorite perfume - Versace Bright Crystal

Well that was fun and easy, just like usual. And look at me go - I even had relevant pictures to accompany the post this time. (Granted, I took one of those at my desk this morning just for this post. I'll let you decide which one that was...But still, better than nothing.) We're taking the boys swimming again tonight, at one of their church-friends' houses, so I'm looking forward to that. All I have to do is make it through the rest of the work day first. Blah.

So what are you currently up to? Have any other fun 'ings' to add to my list? Happy Thursday friends :)
