[A favorite shot from our trip to Wild Rumpus over the weekend.]
Thinking about how hard it is to balance everything. I recently started a part-time job but with training it's been closer to full-time than I had anticipated. I'm thankful to be working right now but I really had a good routine going and I just can't seem to fit blogging, exercise, reading, cleaning/doing laundry, and cooking dinner into one day anymore. I guess I didn't realize how much time I was putting into my blog and other creative projects these past few months. I need to get more organized.
Listening to the soundtrack from Rent a lot. I usually watch that movie once a year but I haven't seen it in a few, so I've been listening to it when I run on the treadmill lately.
Reading hardly anything. I want to read more in 2014 and actually have a list ready to go, but sometimes I'll start a book, put it down, and not pick it up again for weeks. It's a bad habit and it irritates me, but seriously The Hobbit might always be known to me as the book I just couldn't finish.
Loving winter in Minnesota. I love the snow and I love the cold and I love that life here doesn't stop because of the weather. Ask me again in April, though, and maybe I'll have something else to say.
Drinking so much lemon water. Every morning I drink a big mug of hot water with lemon, and then throughout the day I've been really good about keeping my water bottle full. A few slices of lemon definitely make water a little less boring.
Eating almond butter with coconut oil every night as a bedtime snack. Sometimes I'll dip apples or celery in it, but most of the time I just eat it with a spoon. My favorite way to have it is with a sliced up banana.
Missing Rocky so much. I can't believe it's already been a month since he passed away. He was just the sweetest dog.
Looking forward to Alt Summit next week, my brother's visit to Minnesota in February, our fifth anniversary in March, closely followed by my bachelorette weekend in DC, a Roanoke bridal shower and marriage license pick-up in April, and of course our wedding at the beginning of May! These next three and a half months are going to be pretty spectacular.
What are you up to currently?
As always (even though it's been a while!), thanks to my sweet blog-friend Dani for inspiring these posts.
