Lately

I feel like I have been running around like a chicken with my head cut off lately and I'm not excited about it. These next few weeks are going to be about making space and time for calm as well as deciding what's coming up next. Changes are on their way, I'm not liking something, so I'm changing it.

Lately I've been...

Listening to /// The newest Mumford and Sons. Nothing much new besides that.

Watching ///
Parenthood - It's the best. I am so addicted and I feel like it's incredibly therapeutic. Life doesn't ever get "easier," it is never without challenges. But that's okay, and for it to feel hard sometimes and to face challenges is absolutely normal, I am not lacking in any adult gene.
Nashville - oh the drama! It's nothing like the city I am a part of, but I am sure me and the singers trying to make it big run in different circles. I did see Deacon out and about a couple weeks ago though. That was awesome.

Reading ///
Big Magic - I have been forcing myself to take a break from self-improvement books but I did allow myself to read this and that was wonderful because it's not like a self-improvement book. I don't feel the need to make a bunch of new plans and then punish myself for not carrying them all out. Big Magic is wonderfully inspiring in the calmest of ways.
See Me - I have been finding myself missing the beginning of this story the past few days. This is a little bit of a who done it which I don't feel like is typical style of Sparks, but it still kept me up reading for hours.
The Irresistible Blueberry Bakeshop & Cafe - Fun easy read, wonderful and funny storyline. Chick lit definitely.

Cooking///
Cashew Chicken
Baked Apple Cider Donuts
Chicken Avocado Lime Soup
Pra Ram
Blueberry Muffins
Noodle, egg and spinach soup
M'Jaddarah
Peanut Butter Banana Bites

Thinking about /// How strange people can be to guard themselves. How beautiful life can feel. Also how hard it can feel for almost no reason.

Loving /// Fall weather, changing leaves, you know, the basic stuff.

Looking forward to /// More Fall weather, stick with us please!!!
