Checking in: July 2014

As I was perusing my Feedly, this post on Design Crush popped up. I had planned to do a little Instagram recap this month since it was so lovely, but I'm much more into words lately (believe it or not). So here goes: 

  • Making: space! I've been on a roll tearing through closets & bagging up items to donate. 
  • Cooking: tonight it's pasta but giving Blue Apron a go next week!
  • Drinking: my morning coffee and cans of seltzer. 
  • Reading: Goodbye to All That: Writers on Loving & Leaving New York and The New York Times ironically enough. 
  • Wanting: a beach day.
  • Looking: a writing project to tackle next.
  • Playing: Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds, Talking Heads 
  • Deciding: which direction to lay the new flooring I'm having installed. 
  • Wishing: for more free time but really who isn't?
  • Enjoying: checking things off my to do list. 
  • Waiting: for some packages. 
  • Liking: my new boot camp class. 
  • Wondering: where I managed to stash a photo that I recently rediscovered. 
  • Loving: the amount of black in my wardrobe. 
  • Pondering: what classes to take this fall. 
  • Considering: what type of light fixture to put in the back entry. 
  • Watching : Masters of Sex, Who Do You Think You Are? 
  • Hoping : for some more great times in August 
  • Marveling: at the staying power of #ThrowbackThursdays and #FlashbackFridays. 
  • Needing: to focus. 
  • Smelling: the breeze coming through my open windows.
  • Wearing: a ponytail. My hair is getting so long!  
  • Following: new blogs everyday. 
  • Wanting: more Strawberry Balsamic Cheesecake ice cream (pictured above). 
  • Noticing: how much I like white walls. 
  • Knowing: that I’m exactly where I'm supposed to be in the world. 
  • Thinking: about Hawaii. five more months to go! 
  • Admiring: my new yoga instructor. So calm! 
  • Sorting: through the server at work. 
  • Buying: things off Etsy. 
  • Getting: ready for a super busy weekend. Bachelorette parties, birthdays, bridal showers! 
  • Bookmarking: shoes to buy for an upcoming wedding I'm in. 
  • Disliking: how this summer is flying by.
  • Opening: new avenues in life. 
  • Feeling: like it's time to write a press release for a client.
