A new month, a new Currently post! Here’s what’s going on behind the scenes of Something Good (and my life).
gathering
All of the books I want to read and TV shows I want to watch. I feel like a squirrel right now, gathering up all of her acorns for winter hibernation. My list of books I want to read and tv shows I want to watch just keeps getting longer and I really don’t mind. I’m ready to settle in for some cold days and consume all the wonderful things. In case you’re curious, my tv includes: The Crown, Veep, West Wing, Outlander Season 2, and Z. Some of the books include The Underground Railroad, You’ll Grow Out of It, You Can’t Touch My Hair, and Good Girls Revolt.
making
Over my apartment! Over Thanksgiving, my dad repainted my apartment’s bedroom for me (thank you!) and I’ve spent the past few weeks slowly redecorating. I’m hoping to share more of it soon, but I’ve been so excited seeing it slowly come together (I just got this rug and I love it). It’s also inspired me to do some touch ups in other areas of my apartment.
sipping
Hot chocolate (and tea, as always). Last month, a friend had me try hot chocolate with almond milk instead of water or regular milk and it was kind of life changing. It made the hot chocolate feel so much thicker and it completely reignited my love for the drink. I personally have loved having it with bowl of popcorn and M&Ms.
following
The advice of those around me (to an extent). I’ve been listening to some really great new podcasts from Think Creative Collective and Jenna Kutcher and man, those girls are brilliant. I’ve gotten such good advice from them when it comes to running my own business and I want to start implementing! (Image via)
resolving
To get better at managing my time. I feel like I fell off of the bandwagon with being good at managing my time over the past few months (aka around the holidays), specifically when it comes to my blog. I always prided myself on my time management, so I’m hoping it’s a habit that I can easily fall back into. January is going to be a pretty busy month for me, so hopefully I can remember these skills fast!
As always, joining the Currently Link Up!
Oh my gosh yes with the gathering of TV and books during this cold season! Though I watched all of The Crown so sadly I have some more gathering to do. New season of Sherlock is going to be on my DVR though. And have you never watched West Wing?! We’ve actually watched all 7 seasons twice we love it so much. And what fun to be making over your apartment – can’t wait to see!
I just finished it last night, so on to continuing to gather more tv shows (including Sherlock)!
And no (hides behind hands), I still haven’t watched it….soon though?
Such a good update. Your book & TV list is amazing and I have yet to watch The Crown so I need to get on it!!
Yesss! The Crown is so good!
Great update! I need to manage my time better too!
It can be such a difficult thing to do!
Yesss hot chocolate with almond milk is amazing – especially vanilla almond milk! Try powdered matcha tea with vanilla almond milk too, it’s fantastic 😍
You’ve been reading my mind! i really want to try matcha, but I still need to buy some first
I absolutely love The Crown!! I’m patiently waiting for the next season… I don’t know what it is about historical fiction, but I can’t get enough. How is the West Wing? I’ve heard people say it’s good, but I watched some of the first episode and then got distracted (I know I didn’t give it a fair chance), but how do you like it?
Also, I’m excited about trying the TCC podcast- I’ve been looking for another one (I religiously listen to Elise Gets Crafty).
I love historical fiction too. I haven’t started the West Wing yet, but I’ll let you know when I do!
I haven’t listened to Elise Gets Crafty, but I may have to look into it. The TCC one is great though!
