Currently

Hi! After a somewhat intentional somewhat unintentional blog break, I'm back! I took a bit of a break because I wanted to put this new layout together. The unintentional part was because it ended up taking way longer to put together than I thought! These things always take forever (because I want to get it just right!) but this time it really did seem to take forever. 

Anyways, I thought I would start off with a post about what else I've currently been up to. Which isn't really too much considering all this self-quarantine/lockdown stuff still going on!

Working on - Just finishing up the blog layout! I've got a few more little things to do and then I'll be done!

I've also been working on some organization in my room. I got a new desk last year and just kind of shoved stuff in it when I first got it, but now I've been slowly working on organizing it. I found some boxes that fit perfectly so I'm trying to transfer stuff from the containers I had into the boxes and just get it looking nicer.

Looking forward to - Quarantine/lock down being over. I am an introvert and spend a lot of time at home anyways, but I'm ready to go back to regular life. 

Watching - Shark Tank, American Idol, The Voice, a few ID channel shows, The Profit, and, as always, Dateline. 

On Netflix we finished the newest season (Season 4) of Nailed It! and we also watched The Pharmacist. Currently we are halfway through The Innocence Files which has been interesting.

Reading - I've read several books lately but unfortunately nothing too interesting or worth recommending. 

Buying - Some summer clothes. I bought a few new dresses at Target before quarantine started (this dress and this dress. Both in red.). And I bought a few things from Old Navy's website about a month ago when they had a 50% off everything sale. So now I have some nice new clothes and nowhere to wear them!

Trying - I tried this recipe for lemon cake for Easter last week. I added a couple of tablespoons of poppyseeds because I wanted it to be a lemon poppyseed cake, and it turned out really good! 

Eating - I've been trying to buy more fresh berries as they've started to become more available/in season. I try to pick some up whenever I go grocery shopping. I really like berries, so I always look forward to when they are in season! My mom and I went out to a local farm and picked some yesterday which was nice!

What have you been up to lately?
