Hi friends, I am sliding into your reader with my Currently post for February! It’s a short month and I barely made it.
LOOKING FORWARD TO | March. I am going to have a visitor! It’s my birthday month! I’ll be going to Germany. Not quite ready for March to be here (like, didn’t we just celebrate the New Year?) but trying to embrace it nonetheless. My friend Tanja is coming to visit next week and will be here for my birthday. I mean, what a gift! I am beyond stoked! It’ll be so nice to have a friend here! And then, in just a little while, I’ll be seeing my family again.
READING | Inhale, Exhale by our beloved friend Nicole. I haven’t finished yet and therefore won’t comment on it yet. I also won’t be hitting my “2 books a month” quota, and it’s only February, but that’s ok… at least I got started on a second book for this month (after slogging through The Age of Innocence)! That’s something!
BUYING | silly potted plants at Trader Joe’s. This should have been a FIG.
EATING | Granny Smith apples. I know, I know, there are so many other delicious kinds of apples out there, but I always come back to the Granny Smith. I love the crispness and tartness, and the other good thing is that you can usually find it year-round. It pairs so well with almond butter, too.
DRINKING | water, coffee, electrolytes.
AVOIDING | the news, because seriously, WTF?
THINKING ABOUT | that today would have been my mother-in-law’s 80th birthday. So much has changed in a year. We probably would have been down in SoCal to celebrate her if she were still here.
ENJOYING | the blue skies! We’ve still been dealing with some incredibly foggy mornings lately, but when the sun comes out, the skies are beautiful! I think spring might be on its way!
WEARING | shorts and tank tops for running! In February! Not every day, but some days!
AMAZED | how quickly the little owlets grow up. I feel like they were just born, but look how much they’ve grown. And look at the beautiful colors of its feathers! (A colleague took the picture through binoculars – the owls are close to my office window, but not that close.)
How was your February? Did it fly by for you as well?
