Currently: October

Well if there are two posts you can guarantee I’ll write every month, it’s my book review post and the currently post.  Which is exactly what I’m bring to you today!
So I am….
Reading….. The Rose and the Dagger by Renee Ahdieh.  So far I’m really enjoying the sequel to The Wrath and the Dawn.  But I’ve had a slow reading month.  I’m hoping to make a dent once the weekend rolls around though! 


Watching….ALL THE SHOWS.  Seriously my  DVR is packed.  Also I started watching Miss Fletchers Murder Mysteries on Netflix at the suggestion of Kristen.  Y’all, she’s right.  It’s so good.  The clothes, the stories, the characters, oh and the accents!  Perfection! Thanks Kristen! 🙂

Wanting….to wear the new booties I bought at TJ Maxx every single day.  I found them this weekend and they are perfect.  I got super lucky and spotted them as soon as I walked into TJ Maxx on Saturday. I especially love the way they went with this cranberry dress I bought at Marshall’s a few weekends back.

Thinking about…..going to Graduate school.  I’ve been thinking about it a lot lately and even started looking into schools and programs.  I’m trying to find the right fit right now.  I would be getting my Masters of Arts in History.  I love history so it’s what makes the most sense.  Plus I have no desire to be an assistant principal nor a principal but I wouldn’t mind one day teaching at a community college or maybe getting a job that is outside of education.  Anyway, I think getting my Masters is the next logical step.  But I’ll definitely be writing about it once I figure everything out! 🙂

Feeling….happy.  Jenny and I had the best evening yesterday.  We went and got mani/pedis and then had a yummy dinner at one of my favorite restaurants in Katy.  This past weekend we had Jenny’s Houston wedding shower and it was pretty perfect if you ask me!  It was a brunch theme with tasty food and pretty decor!  Can’t wait to stand by her side as she gets married next month!


Looking forward to….weddings and babies and Disney and 2017 and my birthday.  Which isn’t until March but hey we’re basically in November and that means March is only 4 months away.  WOO HOO!


Loving….Fall flowers.  Trader Joe’s has been my go to for fall bouquets this year and man are they gorgeous.  Plus they are SO CHEAP!!! I bought a few different bouquets for Jenny’s bridal shower last weekend and they are currently gracing my apartment.  I don’t know about y’all but I cannot say enough about the effect fresh flowers have on the over all feel and look of an apartment.  They are literally the best decor you can have.


Needing….more pots and pans.  I currently have 1 good pan and 1 good pot.  I need a pan with a lid though for sure.  (Jeez I’m old)

********
Well that’s a wrap for now.  Happy Wednesday Friends! 🙂

  4. I seriously can't believe that the year is almost over and it's almost time for our birthdays again! It just seems like yesterday that we were taking pictures at all of the Houston murals for our birthdays! I'm thinking that we need to do that again soon! Those booties that you found are too cute, and that's so exciting about graduate school! It would definitely be a great opportunity for you in the future! P.S. I love your hair wavy like that, and we need to do dinner again soon!

  6. Love that dress and bootie combo, so perfect for Fall even though Houston doesn't have Fall temps lol. Yay for possibly starting grad school, exciting stuff! A brunch themed shower sounds so fun! Nothing better than fresh flowers to decorate a space! I would try TJ Maxx or HomeGoods for pots/pans, I've lucked out and found high quality ones there, for cheap cheap cheap too!
