Currently - April '18

I feel like I blinked and completely missed the beginning of April; how are we halfway through the month already? Too late to link-up with Anne and Jessica, but here it goes anyway:


showering - at work a few times last week in an effort to cut a few minutes off of my morning routine. I've been bike commuting more, so showering at work means one less outfit change, but the real difference is that I'm much less inclined to zone out in the hot water when I'm not at home.

cultivating - ideas for projects around the house and yard. Maybe someday I will actually get around to doing them.

expecting - it to be warmer outside. Why do I still expect this, seven years after moving to the east coast?

making - vegetarian meal plans for the month of April. Towards the end of March I felt like my eating habits were starting to slip and a dietary "challenge" similar to dry January was in order. I momentarily considered Whole30 (at least one person at work always seems to be on it) but decided to go with something less restrictive for my mental sanity/enjoyment.

buying - a few new spring items to refresh my wardrobe - bright coral flats and a yellow blouse. Last weekend I put away most of the sweaters and put together my "spring capsule." I really like having fewer options to ponder in the mornings, and switching items out seasonally does make old things feel fresh and new again.
