Currently August 2020

Currently August 2020

August- birthday month, drove home from Los Angeles, pandemic still happening, fires, I turned 41,  went through a few grief waves because BIRTHDAY, library books checked out (FINALLY!), working from home with husband and child has been interesting, mornings in the yard keep me sane, vegetables ripening in the garden, pops of orange and pink zinnias out the window, wore overalls mostly for the pockets, dog snuggles, cat snuggles, art with friends,  sad goodbyes to another group of friends who are making the exodus out of California, took a reiki training workshop, school started and we stayed away from the public as much as we could and stayed healthy. 

I spent a lot of time working in my Currently Workbook this month. It really helped calm my brain and reduce my anxiety. 

I’m going through a collage phase. I’ve been using photocopied clip-art from an old book and pasting things down with mod podge.

This sticker book is totally my favorite!!!  —> The Antiquarian Sticker Book I used it a lot for the pages.

Intentions for the Week – Week 36 of 2020

Happy Monday, friends!

This weekend I had a happy hour turned dinner with friends. I did a bunch of art, got started on laundry and cleaned up the kitchen, and did a little bit of meal prep (mostly snacks!) for the upcoming week. We are on our second week of school from home. It was so much easier to get work done while Cooper is occupied. Feeling thankful for being back in a somewhat “regular” schedule. Referring to this post about creating healthy eating habits because I need the reminder!   Let’s figure out what’s our Intentions for the Week, shall we? Here are mine!

Roasted Seaweed Snack Ideas

Need some ideas on what to do with Roasted Seaweed? Tracy Benjamin from Shutterbean shares her favorite Roasted Seaweed Snack ideas!

After staying at home with my little family for almost six months, I’ve turned into quite a snack master.  How about you?

My goal is always to give Cooper a well-rounded diet, and as a picky eater, I am so glad he loves roasted seaweed snacks. It’s an easy way to get vitamins and minerals into his growing body!

Intentions for the Week – Week 35 of 2020

Happy Monday, friends!

This weekend flew right by. I did a massive purge of stuff in my office this weekend and went through my bedroom closet too and packed some things up to go. It feels good to let parts of the old me go. BYEEEEEE. It was a great way to channel my stress with the fires around here.

It’s Sunday as I type this. Tomorrow is Cooper’s first day of school! He will be doing distanced learning through a computer for the next few months. PRAY FOR US. It’s going to be a wild ride!  This week we are getting settled into a new school routine, which means I might have some energy to do some meal prep to make life a bit easier. Whatever helps!  Anyways, let’s get to it. These are my Intentions for the Week.
