FEELING | a little all over the place lately. Lots going on and I haven’t had proper time (and brain power) to blog much, but I am planning to keep up my annual tradition of blogging my way through November by participating in NaBloPoMo. Do or die, friends. Who’s with me?
WEARING | my fleece jacket more often because it’s been cooling down (appropriately for fall). I would lie if I said I didn’t like it. Give me all the seasons!
EXCITED ABOUT | voting. I hope you are too.
READING | Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of a Family and Culture in Crisis by J.D. Vance.
EATING | zucchini-cheddar scones. I bought one from the local Co-op the other week (it’s what happens when you go grocery shopping hungry!) and then decided that I had to bake my own (which I did last weekend). Recipe will be posted soon.
DRINKING | tea.
WATCHING | the World Series! The Red Sox made it to the WS this year and J and I couldn’t be more excited. They’re playing the LA Dodgers and are currently leading the series 2-0.
MAKING | homemade bread!
ENJOYING | visits from our neighborhood cat. It’s so cute because whenever I pull up with the car, he basically sprints from wherever he’s been to our front steps and (loudly) insists on a nice, thorough head scratch. He snuck into the house twice recently and has been taking strolls through every room before turning around and running back outside. Haha.
LOOKING FORWARD TO | Halloween. I hope we get some trick-or-treaters again. J wants to watch the new Halloween movie but I am not sure yet if I can muster up the courage. We’ll see.
LISTENING TO | the Soundscapes channel.
TRYING | to get back into my gym routine. I realize that sometimes life happens and you have to adjust your schedule for a bit, but man, it’s always so hard to get back into your regular routine.
What’s up with you currently?

October 25, 2018 at 12:20 pmYum! that bread looks good. I’m trying to get back into a blog routine and NaBloPoMo sounds like it could be the blast start I need – but how do you come up with something to write about every day??

October 25, 2018 at 7:03 pmAw, your neighbor cat is so adorable!! Love that they just want some head scratches. Trying to get into a routine again – for anything! – can definitely be tough, so I know what you mean. I missed cardio hip hop last week and I went last night, and omg, even that is something you can feel. LOL I hope you have a great weekend!! Good luck with all of your blogging next month.

Happy weekend, Tobia

October 28, 2018 at 3:15 amI’ve also struggled with blogging much lately! When I get busy I find that I’m just not as creative about coming up with blogging ideas. That homemade bread looks delicious!

November 2, 2018 at 5:47 pmOoh, I had to click the link for Hillbilly Elegy to see what you thought, and I’m glad you liked it! That one has such strong dissenters, but I really got a lot out of the book.
I’ve been out of my normal routine for so long and I desperately miss it. You never realize how much you love your normal boring routine until it’s gone for a long time. Hoping to get back to it soon.
