Currently September

Where does the time go? Who else is just in survival mode? The start of the school year is so crazy!

My husband gave me the best gift today which is the house to myself. He is at the boat, but he let me have the weekend off. Don't get me wrong, I love being on the boat, but other things in my life are sacrificed when we spend the entire weekend on the boat. And being back to working full time really cramps my style and makes me truly NEED every moment of the weekend.

So here it is! Thanks to Farley for giving me a reason to get back to blogging! Only a week late… but better LATE to the Currently Link Up than NEVER!


Listening:  I have to say, it's time for FALL TV! My DVR is holding onto pretty slim pickings these days.  Today is a day where I actually have TIME to watch something, but I have nothing to watch.  I think I may need a few new shows to get hooked on soon!

Loving: So it totally says laps in the image above, but I don't want to go through the work of making a new jpg! Ha! I did a little shopping today. I got two new lamps for our bedroom- they are the non matching kind of lamps which is new for me! I feel pretty jazzy and totally Pinterest worthy! Had to get a new rug for the kitchen, let's just say a dog ruined it, and leave it at that.  And last week (late at night on my iPad in bed) I ordered new bedding from Pottery Barn for the guest bedroom. It's Blue Toile and I've been coveting it for a while now… so it's mine! Can't wait for it to arrive! I had to then get new sheets… and curtains… and… I spent the morning shopping! Woo-hoo!

Thinking: So I'm on a diet. And a very restricted one at that.  Which means all I can think about is food. I've never thought bout food so much in my life!  And I'm an eater (part of the reason why I need to be on this diet) so it makes me so angry! Hungry+Angry- HANGRY!

Wanting:  So see above… part of what I do all day is DREAM about food. Right now, I'm battling the desire to go make Mac & Cheese! My mouth is watering just thinking about it. I've realized being on a diet is easier at work then there isn't a closet full of food to tempt me! This is not easy people! Not easy at all!

Needing: The graphics card on my computer stopped working the other day. I did not realize how dependent I am on my computer, nor did I realize how hard it is for my husband to share his! Fantasy Football doesn't make it any more likely that he won't need to use his computer, but he has loaned it to me for a few hours today. Going in the morning to get my computer back, because they JUST emailed me and told me it's ready! YAY!

3 Trips: I think I just want to be surrounded by the accents in Australia!  I've never been to the upper East Coast and I would love to see the colors in the fall.  Finally, Ireland, what's not to love about a place like that!

Hope you are all finding some relaxation this weekend and preparing for another wonderful week of school! Cheers!
