Deciding: on a waterproof phone case.
Wishing: more of the kids in Stevie’s class were verbal so he could practice conversing.
Enjoying: the fact that I just scared my husband pretty good.
Waiting: for Stevie’s eye to heal so summer can really begin!
Wondering: why i take so many photos for work, but not many for me. also, why does my back hurt?
Loving: all the support we’ve gotten for the heart walk.
Pondering: Stevie’s afternoon schedule and what will benefit him most.
Considering: a night at a local hotel, just for fun + pool.
Buying: hats. summer hats.

Smelling: cat poop.  gross.
Wearing: workout gear for now.
Following: Harben Porter‘s capsule wardrobe blog.
Noticing: i feel a bit unsettled.
Knowing: we need to try swim lessons again soon.
Thinking: about too many things all the time.  my brain is tired.
Admiring: fellow capsule wardrobers who seem so much more put together than me.
Sorting: through clothes all the time, it feels like.

Snacking: on hummus.  but only from Zankou.
Helping: Stevie the best I can.
Hearing: the birds & the breeze outside my window.  literally!  i’m not trying to be cute here.  there is also the sound of jackhammers,  but i choose to hear the birds.

  1. Good luck with swim lessons! We started Lily this week and she detests the class. Like, tantrum-by-the-pool detests. Good times. 🙂

    1. Stevie is the same! Just screamed for me the whole time. I’m hoping it gets better as he gets used to it. He just doesn’t like instructors (or anyone for that matter) telling him what to do!

  2. Check out the Garland near Universal Studios. It’s a cute Retro-Modern boutique hotel with a bar at the pool.

    1. that sounds lovely! consider it considered!
