Currently


Loving: My new work schedule. A few weeks ago I talked a little bit about my decision to quit my full time photography job and start working at a local bakery again. I'm still getting used to everything but I'm really enjoying not working the typical 9 to 5. Having a day or two off in the middle of the week is the best. I can run errands without a million people everywhere. I can go to the grocery store or the post office in the middle of the day and not have to wait in line! I seriously love that. Also, sometimes I get to catch my favorite daytime TV shows like I Love Lucy and The Price is Right! Did you know that The Price is Right gives away awesome CLASSIC cars as prizes now?! So cool!

Excited about: Switching to Passionfruit. I finally installed everything this week and I'm so excited about it! I can't even believe how much easier this service is going to make my sponsorship program.

Watching: The Inbetweeners. NOT THE NEW MTV VERSION... the original British version. I just finished season 3 and it took me a few episodes to get into this show but once I did, I was hooked. A word of warning though... it's not for the faint of heart... or anyone who's easily offended, for that matter. 

Anticipating: FYF Fest. I'm not quite sure which day I'll be going to yet but both days are pretty awesome so it really doesn't matter.

Listening to: The Dazed and Confused soundtrack. I bought it for $2 at a local record store. I play it while I'm driving and pretend I'm in the movie. Ha!

Planning: Meals. This should explain the photo above. I'm trying my best to not eat out. I've been grocery shopping about once a week and using Pinterest to plan my meals based on what's on sale.

Working on: I don't really know where to begin with this one. I'm all over the place right now. I have some custom Etsy orders I'm working on. I also want to give the blog a makeover. I have a blank wall in my bedroom that needs some love and a million things to hang on it. Time to make a list and start prioritizing, I suppose.

Thinking about: What to do when my phone contract runs out in about a week. I'm thinking of switching to an iPhone but really anything with the internet will do. Ya... I don't have a data plan. I basically never have. I think I'm most excited to have a new fancy phone when I'm lost. No more fumbling with the huge map in my glove compartment... or calling my Dad for help, haha!

Wishing: I was a little more focused. I go through phases with this blog. Sometimes I'm really on top of everything and I plan posts weeks ahead of time. Other times I have no idea what I'm going to post the next day. That's ok though... and it's good to be honest about it. I almost feel like the less I plan posts ahead of time, the more real the blog becomes. I find myself without a DIY idea or a photographed recipe so what do I do instead? I talk a little bit about my personal life. I don't know about you guys but I kind of like that. It's nice to have a few unplanned "real life" posts once in a while like this one, don't you think?

Thanks Allison and Liz for the inspiration for this post!

  2. I love The Inbetweeners, though it's a bit uncomfortably familiar from my own school days...!
