Thinking:
About my upcoming birthday and reflecting on the past decade. I think I've changed more than I even realize, what do you think?
 |
| Me at 20 |
Feeling:
Anxious. Let's just say that money is a very necessary evil that never seems to want to work in my favor. I can only hope that this will not always be the case.
Watching:
Supernatural. I just finished season 6 and I am getting sad that I only have 2 more seasons to go until I'm caught up. I love the journey of binge-watching a new series. Exploring the characters and twitching to watch each new episode is like a drug for me.
Reading:
Divergent by Veronica Roth. I'm a huge Hunger Games fan and this was on a buzzfeed list of books to read if you liked the Hunger Games. So far I'm liking it, it's different enough from THG so I'm not constantly comparing the two, and it has an interesting plot. In a nutshell it's about a dystopian society where civilization is divided into factions which are based on personality, and a girl who might be part of breaking down the walls of that society (yes that does sound like The Hunger Games but I swear, it's different enough!)
Excited:
That in less than two months, I will be planning two birthday parties! (And also a little sad. Can't time slow down just a little bit?) We've decided not to combine the parties this year, though we could since the boys' birthdays are 19 days apart. I wanted to do a specific theme for Bennett's and this might be the last chance that we get to do it.
Missing:
Some of my friends who live just far enough away to make it difficult to get together on a frequent basis. I'm dreaming about a time when I am within walking/bike riding distance of close friends.
Wondering:
What it's going to take to get this baby to stop napping on top of me. Every attempt to put him down during the day is thwarted, and I'm left with a screaming, wide-awake little boy. I'm trying not to stress too much about it but it's really starting to get to me. As much as I love relaxing and watching TV or reading a book during nap time, I'd also like to get some stuff done, or at least lay down without 20 extra pounds on me!
Working:
On my postpartum support business! I've encapsulated one placenta solo and I have 3-4 more clients due this summer. I'm not going to post about my business a lot on here since it's a personal blog, but if you're interested, visit my site.
Eating:
Not very well, hence the lack of What I ate Wednesday posts. We've been in survival mode which means lots of inexpensive meal options, mainly containing tortillas and tortilla chips. I think we've gone through three bags of blue corn & flaxseed chips in the last two weeks.
Drinking:
Too many decaf iced coffees! My favorite way to make it is to add some soy creamer, dark chocolate almond milk, and a dollop of tru whip. It's like a decaf iced mocha!
Loving:
Some of the items I got on my weekend mall trip with some of my friends. Every once in awhile we get to have a Mom's Day out at one of the malls in our area and it's always a great time. This past Saturday was no exception. Even without buying much it was great to just get out and have a nice child-free dinner. My friends bought me this ring as an early birthday gift:
What are you currently thinking, feeling, watching, etc?

I used my (actual) need for a new iphone case as an excuse to buy myself a birthday gift. Sometimes you just need something really silly just because:
I also got to wear my favorite new (to me) dress. It's from Urban Outfitters but I got it for $16 at a local shop a few months ago:
