Running with Ender on a rainy morning.

Seeing my spiralized pasta primavera from Quick + Easy Spiralizer on Delish Knowledge this week.

Getting Sophie on a (loose!) nap schedule and bedtime routine, and having a glass of wine with dinner at 7PM every night.

This nightgown that makes me feel a lot less frumpy than I was feeling going to bed in old tee shirts the past few months.

Light-filled evenings--well worth the lost hour of sleep, in my opinion.

The five songs I've got going on repeat lately:

• Wait for It, Usher
  • I mean, really the whole Hamilton Mixtape is playing non-stop in my house and car these days, but this is the one I always repeat as soon as it's over.
• I Feel So Bad, Kungs feat. Ephemerals
  • This song is on the Pure Barre playlist that I've been training with and I love it so much. It kind of reminds me of Cold Little Heart or any other song you might find on the Big Little Lies soundtrack.
• Your Hand in Mine, Explosions in the Sky
  • This has been "our song" for as long as I can remember, and it was actually the first dance song at our wedding. Rob and I listen to it every year on our anniversary, and since that was last week I've been replaying it a bit while I'm working. For some reason I can't concentrate to music with lyrics, so Explosions is often my workday background music.
• Closer, The Chainsmokers
  • I just can't quit it.
• Ophelia, The Lumineers
  • I had literally never listened to anything by The Lumineers and then in October I listened to their episode on Song Exploder about this song and I've probably listened to it every day since then.

When you work out, drink coffee, go to the grocery store, and drop your car off to be serviced all before 9AM.

When you make time for an afternoon nap on the couch (maybe because you worked out, got coffee, went to the grocery store, and took your car to the dealership to be serviced all before 9AM) and your dog decides to cuddle up and join you.

Cooking all day and cleaning as you go so that at the end of it all you're left with a fridge full of meals and a clean sink.

When you wash your hair on a weekend but don't have anywhere to be so you can just let it air-dry.

Walking through the garden section of Home Depot with a cart full of plants on a warm Sunday afternoon.
