Currrently - February '20

Fun fact - it's been just over 5 years since my first "Currently" post! Rereading it, it's kinda funny how much and how little has changed. Since then, Keizo has moved to the US, we got married, and moved apartments. On the other hand, I still have the same job and look forward to trips home to sunny AZ. Only about a month to go until the next one! Meanwhile, here's what I've been up to "currently"...



loving - The drama "A Place to Call Home" set in late 1950's/early 1960's Australia. I watched my first few episodes on PBS and was resigned to waiting a week between new ones until Keizo discovered we could stream the whole series for free through our library account!

embracing - A dry, sunny day after a week of rain and hopping on the bike despite temperatures around freezing. It was just what the doctor ordered - it felt so good to be outside after being cooped up for several days.

tasting - At least one new restaurant a month. In January we tried All Purpose and Maketto; last night we met friends at El Sapo. It's a tasty motivator to actually leave the house in the evenings when it's dark and cold.

wearing - This grey blazer as many as a few times a week. It's nice to give my favorite black one a rest, plus the grey one feels a bit cozier and fits under a winter coat if necessary.

preparing - A training plan for a 10-mile run at the end of April. We'll be out of town for the St. Pat's 10K that has become something of an annual tradition at this point, so I've set my sights on something a bit bigger later in the spring. Hopefully by starting early and working up to it little by little I will avoid any injuries.
