Currently

I am currently laying in bed at 1:42PM on Sunday afternoon with not a single plan for the remainder of the day. Heavennnn. 

Perfect time to write a post on life's current happenings. 

***

I'm currently reading this book:


And let me tell you, it's wrecking me good. Isn't it funny how Christian lingo takes these terrible verbs and turns them into profoundly positive statements. 

"This week's sermon wrecked me." "That bible verse destroyed me the first time I heard it."

AKA it spoke to me in such a way that it changed everything in the best possible way. And yes, that's exactly what this book is doing. I'm hoping to do a complete post once I'm done with the book, so more on this to come. For now, I'll just say that if you've ever once thought you struggle with insecurity, pick up a copy of this book stat. And then text me as you read it and we'll gush about how spot on it is.

I'm currently mourning the ending of The Office. 


Unlike everyone else, I decided to jump on this bandwagon a year and a half after the show ended. I binge watched like nobody's bizznass, and finished all 9 seasons in a matter of months. I did fall asleep in a fair amount, but still. Just gives me permission to rewatch all 9 seasons at a later date. 

They were that good. I now understand what all the fuss was about, and I both want to work at Dunder Mifflin in Scranton, PA, and be BFFs with Pam and Jim. And Angela and Dwight. And everybody. 

I'm not quite sure what I'm going to do with my free time anymore.

I'm currently getting back into real life mode after spending time at home for the holidays. Don't be fooled by the fake snow. We were most definitely in San Diego.

I'm currently still relishing in the deliciousness that was consumed at last night's Friendsmasgiving. Yum. 





PJ and I made the green beans, and I was quite happy with how they turned out! 


Sauteed them with some olive oil, garlic, onions, mushrooms, and gave a good solid shake of sea salt and pepper, and boom. Yummy green beans. 

I just may volunteer to make them for Thanksgiving next year!

And now, I'm going to go pop myself some pop corn and pick a movie on netflix. But before I head out, I've got a question for ya'll. {Leave it to me to end a light post with a serious question}.

How do you Sabbath? The Lord put it on my heart to spend some time this year really developing a consistent pattern of rest. What does that look like for you? I'd love to hear it!

It's Sunday for me, but this will post on Monday. So happy Monday, friends! Over and out.

Current Favorite Song: I Lived by One Republic


I've listened to it more times than I can count. And I just found the song today. 

Current Favorite Place To Eat: Natural Cafe


Current Favorite Thing To Get: Half arugula salad and a cup of ranchero tempeh 

Oh em yum. 

Current Favorite Bible Verse: "Not one of all the Lord's good promises to Israel failed; every one was fulfilled." Joshua 21:45

I'm gonna be sitting on this one for a while, til it sinks in good and deep. 

Current Favorite Starbucks Drink: Skinny vanilla latte with soy milk


Current Favorite Thing To Wear: These pants from American Eagle


They're jeggings, so think material like jeans, but stretchy like leggings. Best of both worlds, yes?

{Sweater: Stitch Fix, Top: Clothing Swap, Shoes: Target}

Current Favorite Thing To Work Out In: These shorts from Lorna Jane


They seem pretty close to these, and let me tell you, they are amazingggg. Softest material ever, and there are spandex shorts built in underneath, so no need to worry about pulling them down 243 times during your work out. 

{Top: Also from Lorna}

Current Favorite Thing I'm Expecting In The Mail: These protein bars


Hurry, hurry mail!!

Happy We-Made-It-Past-Humpday, friends! Have yourself a mighty fine one.
