Currently: April

I'll be sharing a "real talk" post tomorrow but as for today we're going to keep it light, mkay? :)

Hello April! — Operation Pretty Things

Reading: I just got All the Bright Places by Jennifer Niven, and I've been struggling through Between Sisters by Cathy Kelly for damn near 2 weeks now. 


Listening to: the "Happy to be Home" playlist on Spotify. It really is quite happy. 






Watching: I tried to watch Tiger King, and you guys... WTF was that?! 

Finished High Fidelity and was...underwhelmed. 
Other than that, a lot of my favorites are wrapping up, but I did find this list of movies on Netflix and even though I'm not a huge movie watcher, I'm planning on checking out some big ones like Marriage Story, Roma, Moonlight, Zodiac, and maybe SnowPiercer.


Procrastinating: Cleaning and reading. Why did I think I'd have more time to do both of these things just because I was working remotely?! Also responding to blog comments, which I will correct with this post! Sorry for being a bit out of it!


Looking forward to: The day when I'm not afraid to walk in to ShopRite. Or anywhere, for that matter, due to this pandemic :( 


Loving: The way light streams into my apartment, especially in the morning. Not having to wear real pants or a bra most days. My apartment in general (hope so, since it's been where I've been spending the majority of my time!). 





Sharing: Books. I mailed 14 books to one of my friends in CO and another 4 via Paperback Swap. Check out my bookshelf here


Writing: My Spring bucket list, which I shared last week. I also started writing in my journal consistently for the first time in years, because these are some strange times.


Wishing: That I didn't have to work from home? Don't get me wrong, I'm very happy to still be employed, but maybe work a little less instead of more? Definitely wishing that things would get back to normal soon. 


Investigating: Time management strategies and tips. Working from home means I'm working harder and longer hours and not taking much needed breaks! I need to find some balance. 


Buying: 

Amazon Basics wireless keyboard and mouse combo - this was purchased for Blue, because she's solely using a laptop

Amazon Basics mini display port (adapter for monitor to laptop) - for work, so I can actually see my screen since now I'm also solely on a laptop

Cremo French Lavender Moisturizing Shave Cream - this was recommended by Steph ages ago and I absolutely love it! It smells great, gets the job done, and leaves my legs silky smooth afterwards!

J. Lo Glow perfume - I ran out of my usual perfume, and this was an old favorite






What's currently going on with you?
Linking up with Anne!
