The Husband is so motivating (in his sleep).

This was the conversation this morning:

…Alarm clock goes off…

Me: Ughhhh should I go to the gym?

Husband: …sleeps…

Me: I’m really sore from yesterday.

Husband: …sleeps…

Me: My neck hurts and my arms hurt and my hamstrings are tight.

Husband: …sleeps…

Me: And I’m still kind of tired.

Husband: …sleeps…

Me: Maybe I’ll go tomorrow.

Husband: …sleeps…

Me: OK, fine, you’re right, I’m already awake and I should just go.

… and off to the gym I went! And I’m glad I got out of bed because it was a beautiful morning to jog to the gym and the workout was great. I am so, so sore, but now I can sleep in a bit tomorrow!

 

Now to the actual point of the post…

Since it somehow became May already , it looks like it’s time for a bit of an update on what I’ve been up to.

(I really think in June I’ll get this out on the 1st – that’s the goal, at least!)

 

Most current vacation…. Hawaii!

 

I’m currently…

 

Reading: I just finished Middlesex and absolutely loved it. I highly recommend you add it to your reading list ASAP.

Watching: The Voice! (Usher and Adam and Blake, oh my!)

Listening to: Songza.com. I can’t get enough of that site.

Obsessing over: Beautiful weather and the fact that summer is almost here! Finally!

Shopping for: I just bought a wristlet and crossbody bag from Tory Burch and some Maxi dresses from Target (thanks for the suggestion, Erin!) but I’m still looking for some nude pumps and maybe gladiator sandals. Yes, I’m at least 3 years behind on the gladiator sandals trend…. I still don’t own a pair!

Wearing: Summer dresses and flip flops this week! It was 80s in Chicago the last few days. But, of course today I woke up and it was 40 so jeans and a cardigan it is.

Learning: I’m still taking my philosophy course on coursera.org! Obsessed.

Thinking: About blog stuff. And life stuff. And my summer shopping list. And my never ending to-do list. Not so deep, this month. 

Bothered by: How calloused my poor hands are. Crazy crossfit!

Eating: Oatmeal and blueberries! (As I type this) but we’ve also been eating a ton of seafood (thanks, Hawaii!)

Drinking: Red wine… yummy. (But obviously I’m not referring to right this second, because it’s way too early for red wine, and it would be gross with oatmeal. I dare you to say otherwise!)

Wasting time on: Work! OK, I realize that’s not exactly wasting time, but some days it feels like it, especially when it’s beautiful weather outside.

Loving: Well, in April I loved dog-sitting and having two puppies in the house! In May I’m loving cut-out dresses. I can’t wait to find more to wear! I’m also loving the quality time we’ve spent with great friends lately. Last night we ate outdoors at one of my favorite restaurants (Fish Bar) with awesome friends and it was delicious and wonderful.

Praying for: Patience for myself! I could use a bit if anyone has some to spare 😉

Working on: I just made the blog a little more mobile-friendly (meaning, you can actually read it on a mobile device, phew!) and also created a button… so the blog is getting there, slowly but surely! I’m also working on photo books from our wedding and honeymoon – I’m excited to have the finished products.

Looking forward to: A few trips this summer and fall!

 

What have YOU been up to lately?!

 

Cheers (and happy Friday Eve!)
