in Everyday Life

Currently: December 2015

Currently:  Why didn’t we just hire movers? lol! I think I asked myself that question a dozen times today and I’m sure Neal did too.  We’re moving into our new house Friday, which is so exciting, but I’m dreading the actual move.  I know we’ll crank it out, but man, I’m tired already.  I am really looking forward to being moved in and to making our new house a home!!  I’m excited to organize, de-clutter, and decorate.  It’s going to be so fun!

Current Confession: Last night around 1AM Magnolia woke up crying. I can’t tell y’all the last time she did this, so I knew something was wrong. I let her cry it out for a little bit, but decided to go in and check on her. The moment I picked her I she cradled her face in my neck and it was heaven. I love my independent little girl, but moments like that make me feel so loved and needed. Magnolia struggled to go back down, so I let her sleep with us. We never do this, but I knew today would be rough if we didn’t all get some sleep. I’m not sure what was wrong with Magnolia last night, but I’ll confess that I appreciated the cuddles. I really see myself becoming Beverly Goldberg one day.  Magnolia’s in trouble.

Current Purchase:  I bought these adorable Halloween pillows (and 2 others) at Kohl’s last week… $2.79 each! Total steal!  I love shopping out of season.

Current “Book of the Month”:  This month I’m reading 10% Happier, but I haven’t been able to read as much as I’d like.  I’m really looking forward to digging in next week after our move and over the holiday break.

Current Obsession:  Giant Food peppermint collection!  I mentioned their peppermint bark the other day, but man, their sandwich cookies are the bomb.

Current Tune:  Today at work I cranked up the “Christmas Radio” station on Pandora.  I’m also loving Break a Sweat and In The Night.

Current Drink: Apple cider vinegar, water, and lemon juice.  I try to have a glass each morning.  I usually use the Braggs vinegar, but I ran out last week.  I add a splash of ACV and lemon juice to a half a glass of water.  It’s great for digestion and for my skin.  I love it.

Apple Cider Vinegar
Current Shows Movies: Lots and lots of Christmas movies!! We’re saving our favorites for the days leading up to Christmas, but we’ve watched quite a few already.  I actually watched this Hallmark movie, The Christmas Ornament, the other day which was really cute!  I’m all about the Hallmark movies this year for some reason.

Current Love: Theodore!! He’s been such a good boy and I’m excited for him to live in our new house.  It’s going to be fun.
