This week’s themes: Creating, Finding, Switching, Forgetting, Craving

Creating

The other day, I decided to tear my office apart and rearrange it. I call it procrastidecorating. It’s my favorite, after procaffeinating and procrastibaking. So I decided to create new landing places for to-do lists and art prints with some old, ugly-ass clip boards because really, I could not just donate them or throw them away. I mean, not when I had spray paint burning a hole in my garage! (*Not literally. That would be terrifying.)

A little taste of the before and after..

Finding

Finally (finally) I’m finding my groove again. I blame part of it on the medication I’m taking, but I also was in a super-funky, dark mood and it sucked. I have to say, even though working for and by myself has been a challenge (I really do like people–and talking to people–despite my best efforts to fool y’all), I’m so glad I escaped my office job when I did. I was miserable with a capital I Will Cut Your Face Off If You Look At Me The Wrong Way.

Switching

I am switching back to good coffee. I tried coffee from Aldi (it was the dark roast if you’re wondering) and my god. Did. It. Suck. It was made slightly better with the use of a French press, but ain’t nobody got time for that. Gotta wait for water to boil and shit. No. I’m like Lorelai Gilmore. I need it strong, I need it good, I need it now.

Number 4 was basically me when I tried that mud that Aldi packaged and sold for $3.50. Thank you, BuzzFeed, for the Lorelai gifs.

Forgetting

I am a hard-core summer person. I love summer. I claw at it for as long as I can. I wear bright nail polish and sandals way past the fashionally acceptable time. However, we’ve had a few days of cooler weather here (read: not suffocatingly humid) and I forgot how nice it is to stand outside and not begin to sweat immediately. I swear, I have purchased so much deodorant this summer, Dove and Secret need to give me a kick-back. #ItalianProblems

Craving

All. The. Things. Here’s what’s happening. In an effort to save money, I have been trying to work from home without as many frequent trips to coffee shops/bars to work. And every day, the siren song of the Oreos in my cabinet grows louder and louder. Same with the chips. And the chocolate. Basically anything that isn’t healthy (although since I treated my body like a garbage can last weekend, I did eat a salad the size of a mixing bowl in an effort to make my body like me again.) I even went so far as to buy a grapefruit in the hopes that I would eat it and magically want fruit. Guess what? Grapefruit sucks. I’m sorry for anyone that likes it, but blech..!

This week’s themes: Planning, Loving, Reading, Wishing, Feeling

Save

We’re doing Sunday LATEly around here today. And we’re doing it fast.

Planning

I bought a new Happy Planner for the rest of 2016 and 2017. It was half off at Pat Catan’s, so for $14, how could I not? I really do want the new rose gold horizontal layout, though I went with the Sugar & Type style since they didn’t have the rose gold (and won’t for a while since Hobby Lobby has exclusivity.)

I also really want a Get to Work Book for 2017, so who knows what planner I’m planning to stay with.

Loving

I turned on the air conditioning in my house yesterday for a mastermind group (normally I just sweat it out) and I was loving not sweating in my house. I had it on for a bit today, too, but the weather doesn’t seem to be as humid as other days here. I do like that the weather has been making my flowers thrive. How pretty are my violas?

Reading

I should get started with Doing Good Is Simple by Chris Marlow. I was sent it for review. I’m in the middle of Daring Greatly by Brene Brown (it’s the Create Lounge book club book this month) and I’ve been stuck on a Netflix kick so reading isn’t happening much.

Wishing

I wish for just a little bit more mild weather. At least for the humidity to back off a bit. Today felt really nice not to deal with it.

Feeling

I’ve been feeling a little off. I’ve also been feeling the pressure to come up with an awesome (and easy to DIY since I’m broke) nail art look for an event I’ve been invited to on Wednesday. It’s called Gemstones and Gelato. I want an opal-ish mani so I can try on some opals and eat some pastel ice cream and I can entirely match.
