Happening lately

Life has certainly been happening in our neck of the woods. We are gearing up to kick off summer with some fun travels and lofty fitness goals. I’ve been feeling very up and down since the new year started. We are living in marital bliss, but I had been experiencing a state of un-motivation, when I usually am more of a go-go-go let’s do a million things in one day and feel really accomplished type of rhythm. I feel like I am constantly behind, and trying to catch up. I’ve learned that I am 30 and eating more and not exercising equals weight gain.  Turns out when you stop moving, the clothes stop fitting. So I’ve started swimming, biking, and running, because I’m a crazy person and I’m doing a triathalon in July. Who’s with me?!

Currently eating

Mostly healthy because we are going to New York City and New Orleans this month. My goal is to carve out some time to do some running while we are gone. We have been cooking and trying to meal plan, so if anyone has any suggestions, please share! I aim to be the meal plan queen, but I am in need of major help.

Currently drinking

Water with lemon. All day every day. We busted open a wedding gift recently when we hosted Mother’s Day brunch. It’s a drink dispenser that we made fruit water in and it was so yummy. I may just keep it out for every day use.

Currently wearing

Lots of big t shirts and stretchy pants.  And shorts. Summer has arrived in Texas!

Currently reading

Back on our trips in March and April, I read Big Little Lies and Tempting Fate. I would recommend both. I keep saying this to myself, but I need to get my booty to the library to get a card. I would love your recommendations for new books to read.

Currently watching

I finished watching Big Little Lies and enjoyed it. It was fun to see the book come to life. I am way behind in the times, but I just started watching The Good Wife and Army Wives, and I’m loving both shows. I have also watched the first few episodes of The Handmaid’s Tale and it completely eeeks me out. Should I read the book?

My Facebook memories have reminded me that I finished my Master’s about 3 years ago, and it is so fun to reminisce with old photos.

Wishing you a happy week! Tell me what you have been up to!
