Currents



I have felt a lull in my blogging so I thought it would be fun to do something one of my friends at The Wink of an Eye did recently; a blog about her current likes.  So here we go!

Current book(s)
I am actually not a reader at all!  I find it hard to sit down and enjoy reading anything, even magazines.  The only book I am currently "reading" is my very useless math book.

Current color
Since is it supposedly "spring" and summer is only a couple of months away I am so excited about coral!  I have a new nail polish that is called coral reef and I love it!  

PAY NO ATTENTION TO THE FACT THIS IS A NURSERY!  NO BABIES NOT ANYTIME SOON!  WEDDING AND HONEYMOON FIRST!
Current food(s)
This time of year all I want is watermelon!  I actually bought one as a gamble and was disappointed it wasn't quite ready yet.  Also, cucumbers!  
Hello, delicious!
Current favorite show
I'm not a big show follower all year long and Derek and I don't exactly have the same taste in shows but our show right now is Survivor.  Honestly, I don't know why because we get so mad at the contestants for being so stupid and voting off the wrong person.

Current need(s)
Vacation!  But more realistically I need to start job searching.

Current triumphs
A clean bill of health for our pup!  He got his shots updated so he is safe from harm and can go play at the dog park.  I also got him to eat his food again!!!!  

Current bane of my existence
Keeping our apartment clean.  Bentley is shedding like crazy, again!  Seriously, Derek used the furmenator on him twice this week and I can't tell the difference at all.  Other than that meal planning, I am the worst at it!  Any advice for planning meals?

Current #1 blessing
Besides life, family.  It is always family!

Current indulgence
Knowing that tomorrow I'm going out to lunch with a friend at a restaurant that has one of the largest menus I have ever seen! 

Current outfit
What Derek and I call, "comfy clothes".  Besides, does a pup count since he is in my lap?.
Spoiled and tired
Current excitement
Lunch tomorrow with a friend!  Working out with Derek after lunch!  And that I found material to make a swimsuit and had a 50% off coupon!  I call that a major score.

Current mood
Very content, although I should totally be in bed sleeping right now!  Wedding planning is going great and I got some good advice when it comes to registering for gifts and that makes me happy!

Current wish list item
A new wardrobe!  But since I'm losing weight and toning up (yay) I'm going to wait till closer to the wedding.  A new car too!  And while we are at it a new laptop.  :) 

Current favorite products
My Camelbak water bottle!  Seriously, one of the best purchases EVER!  It gets so much use especially with how much Derek and I are working out lately. 
Just add a neoprene sleeve to keep water cold!

Day 23: Childhood photo & 24: What I worry about


So it has been a while!  My attempt at this whole blog challenge well has pretty much failed.  But I might as well finish off the days that I have left with the exception of Day 22: The life of a student (because we have all been students at one point).


Day 23: Childhood Photo


Christmas 1994
Here is a photo of me and my mom from Christmas 1994.  How, do I know this with no date on the photo?  The pink gorilla.  I LOVED stuffed animals when I was younger!  That pink gorilla is the very last gift that I ever received from my Grandma Dorothy before she passed away.  I never got to know my grandma very well because she lived the majority of her life in a nursing home.  One thing was for sure though: She LOVED her grand-kids more than anything (even BBQ ribs)!


Day 24: What I worry about


I try my hardest to not worry but worrying is a part of life.  I believe that things happen for a reason and you shouldn't waste your time worrying.  There are times though that I worry about it money because there never seems to be enough of it!  Then there are the normal things that people worry about being a good enough spouse and mother when the day comes.
