+ peep the new blog layout, y'all!
+ this post is being published a day late because i am battling a serious cold. i am praying it doesn't turn into a sinus infection.
+ i used to be skeptical that a book was just overhyped if everyone was talking about it. now if everyone is recommending a book, i'm usually skeptical because it is probably dripping with woke ideologies + buzz words.
+ i had to work from home on friday afternoon. it was lovely!
+ i finished "finlay donovan knocks 'em dead" on audio this week. 4 stars! [affiliate link]
+ i found the bezalel and the creative spirit of God youversion bible plan really interesting.

our church met for a night at the wichita sports forum.
i jumped on the trampolines
and played sand volleyball.
as i woke up this morning,
i was keenly reminded i am in my mid-thirties:
sore muscles in places i didn’t know i had.
but it was just what i needed.
i walked out the door with a full heart.
TMI PSA: if you’ve had a baby- regardless if it was via c-section- i need you to know you will still pee yourself if you jump on a trampoline. ask me how i know.]

+ the new season of stranger things = suhhhhh good!
+ we have had such odd weather lately, but i kinda love a rainy morning at work.
+ i deleted the twitter app off my phone a few weeks ago & have not missed it one iota.
+ currently reading: sorry i'm late, i didn't want to come (honestly might DNF if though)
+ why could i stay up until the wee hours of the morning when i was in my twenties, but i go to bed at 11 now, and i need four days to recover??
+ i am planning jackson’s 5th birthday party. FIVE, how?!
+ ollipop is soooooo good! my current fav flavor is the tropical punch.
+ i started reading on my kindle again. i forgot how much i enjoy it!
+ top gun: maverick was SOOOOOO GOOOOOOOD.
+ it was 100º this week, but at least it's not snowing.

Q2 word - N U R T U R E
march • april • may
just as my word for Q1 was inspired by the winter issue of the magnolia journal, so was my Q2 word. (spoiler: Q3 is not inspired from my girl, joanna, this time, lol.) i sought out to nurture the good things in my life: faith, family, creativity, + health.
in this conscious practice, i gained a new insight on how i spend my time: the lower my phone's screen time, the better those areas of my life seems to be.
Q2 goal review-
- read six books. i read 13!
- continue my weekly social media sabbath. yes. i also took a week-long break.
- brush off my DSLR. i technically completed this; i literally dusted it off. i charged the battery. and then i sat it back down, never to touch it except to rearrange my closet shelf. i have accepted that using my big camera (as i like to call it) is just not for this season.
- find two clean lipsticks. as i mentioned in my Q1 review, i had an allergic reaction to sriracha. my lips have been on a months-long healing journey. they still don't quite feel normal, so maybe this goal just needs to sit on the back burner for a bit.
- celebrate our seventh year of marriage. we did, with dinner + coffee.
- file income tax. done. (thanks, mom!)
- declutter every area of our home for the garage sale in april. DONE! our home feels lighter, if that makes sense.
- blog every day in may. done!
