My version vs. Mike's version of what I look like in the morning.


Making:
I've been making lots of vegan recipes lately, I've been working on making a crocheted afghan, and I pulled out an old unfinished quilt with the intentions of finishing it within the next few weekends.

Anticipating:
The SPRING! I'm definitely over the winter.

Learning:
About my ancestry. I signed up for an ancestry.com account and started building the family tree. I wish I could find more than just names.

Listening to:
I've been very uninspired by music lately. I've been listening to a lot of 70s/80s punk/new wave on Pandora and Spotify.

Wearing:
I got a Hello Apparel sweatshirt that I am loving, and I also picked up a couple of jeans from Target on clearance - one pair is teal, the other chartreuse!

Watching:
So glad The Walking Dead is back. I've also started watching Pretty Little Liars on Netflix. It's become a guilty pleasure.

Currently

Loving: Pinning home improvement stuff to Pinterest on my iPad. We are obsessed with getting the house into a condition a bit more appealing to renters.

Listening: Lana Del Rey. I'm late on this wagon, I know.

Reading: Blogs and emails. Still not enough free time to get to any real books.

Watching: I've been catching up on Hulu and Netflix: Portlandia, Grey's Anatomy, Gossip Girl, New Girl, Parks & Rec, The Office, Parenthood, Nashville. We still need to catch up with Dexter.

Thinking about: Money. Specifically, how much we will need to spend to fix things around the house.

 Stressing about: Money. See above. Repairing a house is expensive, y'all! Also, the fact that I haven't been making blog posts. It's the middle to end of January guys. I feel so un inspired. 

Looking forward to: I bought tickets for Mike & I to go see Animal Collective in Boston the week after his birthday, so I'm really looking forward to visiting one of my favorite towns again!
Making me happy: Planning for repairs and watching them actually start to be completed. Related: dreaming about the next place. We're hoping to fix up our current place, rent it out, and buy a second rental property. (See also: "Stressing About.")

Loving: My new winter coat, and crazily enough, the SUPER early Christmas stuff everywhere. I've totally got the Christmas spirit this year. I've already finished 90% of my Christmas shopping!

Listening: I've been trying to give No Doubt's new album another chance, but there are only 3-4 songs I can even stand listening too.

Reading: Blogs and emails. Hoping to start reading more books now that my sister has given me her old iPad and I can download them right on there.

Watching: Now that October is over, we FINALLY caught up on the Walking Dead and OMG. This season is sooooo much better than last season already!

Thinking about: New ideas for prints for my shop now that I have finally completed ever State!

 Stressing about: Getting over this awful cold I've had for 2 weeks now.

Looking forward to: Seeing our families on Thanksgiving and Christmas!

Making me happy: The new lighting fixture we made for my office (photos to come soon, I promise).

Currently

Loving: All of the Halloween decorations around town and in my own house. Pumpkin Spice scented candles. Feeling cozy in this cooler weather.

Listening: I've kind of been in a music funk lately. I need something new and inspiring to get me back into it.

Reading: Blogs and emails. Always.

Watching: Still trying to finish up 31 horror movies in 31 days with M. Looking forward to that beinf over soon so we can start the new seasons of The Walking Dead and Dexter!

Thinking about: Our Halloween party and our upcoming 1 year wedding anniversary!

 Stressing about: Our halloween party! Getting caught up on the book keeping for my shop.

Looking forward to: Our Halloween party! Having some extra time to work on and add to my shop and organize my home office mess. I'm feeling really motivated to get things done!

Making me happy: Cuddling with M & Emmett on the couch at night. Planning surprises and trying to keep my mouth shut about it. Talking about home improvements we need to get done in 2013.

Currently

Loving: The fall weather, cuddling with my husband and Emmett on the couch and watching horror movies, my new gym membership, pumpkin scented candles, seeing the changing leaves, pumpkins sitting on every stoop.

Listening: I listen to SiriusXM on my long drives to and from work. Usually talk radio, NPR, or SiriusXMU.

Reading: Blogs and emails

Watching: 31 horror movies in 31 days for October and all the new shows in my Hulu queue which include - Parks & Rec, The Office, Up All Night, The New Girl, Parenthood, Grey's Anatomy, etc.

Thinking about: Our Halloween party!

 Stressing about: Our halloween party! And money (per usual).

Looking forward to: Our Halloween party! And my impending staycation, spending our anniversary together and doing something fun & crazy.

Making me happy: Filling orders in my shop, baking macarons for my friends at work, feeling less stressed out about not having time for everything, getting back into the habit of working out and eating clean!
