Hi! It's been a little while! I thought I would pick back up with a post about what I've been up to lately. Which hasn't been much to be honest. The blogging break was definitely unintentional, I just haven't been doing very much lately!

Working On - Editing some pictures. My mom and I took a quick trip to Asheville, NC, last month to do some hiking and I have some pictures I need to finish sorting and editing. 

I'm also working on figuring out my Thanksgiving grocery list. Since Thanksgiving food is not something I make on the regular, it always takes a bit of time to go through recipes and see what I have and what I need. We bought a couple of turkey breasts to cook this year instead of a whole turkey. They're easier and no one in my family likes dark meat anyways, so it just made more sense to cook those.

Needing - To finish figuring out my Christmas presents for my family. I've purchased a couple of things and have a few ideas for other family members, but now I need to come up with something different for my sister because she purchased the item I had already bought for her. 

Reading - I just finished reading When We Were Young and Brave by Hazel Gaynor. I really enjoyed it. It was very well written so I could easily imagine what was going on and how things looked. It had great characters, and the plot was really interesting. It did have some sad moments in it, but I enjoyed how they always tried to find the light in such a dark and tragic situation. 

Buying - Joggers. I've needed some new ones for a while and I got these ones from Target and then I just bought these ones from American EagleIt has finally just gotten slightly cool enough to wear them so I'm happy about that!

Watching - We've been watching The Amazing Race, Shark Tank, Dateline, The Voice and some random ID Channel shows. On Netflix we've been watching The Great British Baking Show each week. And we finished Volume 2 of Unsolved Mysteries which was really good! Also, my sister and I are watching the second season of The Mandalorian on Disney+.

Trying - To find some new t-shirts! Why is it so hard to find a basic t-shirt? I like something with a curved hem and either a crew neck or scoop neck. I hate that they're either tight and clingy or large and boxy! I want something that is soft, loose, but fitted (if that makes sense. Not tight but not boxy either.), comes in lots of colors (most are just either black or white.) and aren't over $20 a piece. That doesn't seem like asking for much but apparently it is. I shouldn't have to spend over $20 for just a simple t-shirt. Anyways. Sorry for the t-shirt rant! ;)

What have you been up to lately?

  3. I know, right? Joggers are the best! This was my first time visiting Asheville and I really enjoyed it! I would definitely recommend visiting if you ever get the chance!
