taking stock.

 

Making: lots of hoop art for lots of lovely people. I'm rather slow sometimes but I love seeing the happy recipients. feel free to custom order as well (if you're ok with waiting) ::smiles::
Cooking: more homemade meals because things just taste better when you marinate/bake/saute/love them
Drinking: La Croix sparkling grapefruit water... water CAN taste amazing.
Reading: Tim's Gunn's Life Lessons. I just believe every person should read it because he's so sweet and truthful. Such a rich and rewarding read.
Wanting: to just lose those 20lbs while still eating all things delicious. or to just not care.
Looking: at a very quiet space that needs invigorating.
Playing: too many songs in my head... i should probably turn on some real music.
Wasting: time not doing something i love. time to focus on my future and what i want.
Sewing: many hoops. and one awesome cowl. slowly.
Wishing: that it were already friday so we could go on our anniversary trip to Vegas and be in that huge Venetian hotel bed watching free cable while drinking wine. whew.
Enjoying: late night chats with the fella in bed. we always come up with the silliest conversations that make me melt all my stress away and just smile.
Waiting: for answers. it's all out there. now we have to wait.
Liking: that fall is happening (even if it's not quite the same in LA) at least I get to see scarves, leaves and cold air in all of your photos. keep 'em coming.... says me.
Wondering: if engagement is in our near-ish future
Loving: that it's about to be five great, challenging, growing and incredibly wonderful years with fella and i can't wait to see what the next five bring us.
Hoping: for more time to accomplish everything 
Marveling: at how positive my man always is through how hard he works. i'm pretty lucky.
Needing: a dog. this is the month. here's hoping we find just the right rescue.
Smelling: the delectable chocolate brownie that i may or may not have eaten all by myself when it was large enough to share.
Wearing: leggings, chambray and my favorite leaf necklace from junghwa that i just MUST show you sometime soon
Following: my heart in every risk i take moving forward.
Noticing: my scratch and dent in my pretty new car. knew it would happen eventually; guess i'm glad i wasn't the one who did it? #silverlining #maybe
Knowing: i don't use proper grammar, i haven't had a haircut in almost a year and my nail polish is three days past removing....  but it doesn't really matter.
Thinking: about what sounds amazing for dinner (any suggestions?)
Feeling: sore from too much work 
Bookmarking: lovely photos on pinterest of course
Opening: all my favorite blogs in tabs so that there are many happy moments in my day
Giggling: every time he sings to me
