Making: more time for TV (we started and are almost caught up with GOT).

Cooking: Stevie’s really into vegan mac + cheeze right now. So I’m technically microwaving.

Drinking: this amazingly refreshing grapefruit beer.

Reading: who has time to read?? No, I seriously need to know.

Wanting: a whole new wardrobe. Yeah… we on that again. It happens once in a while.

Looking: at a Viking cruises catalog – a girl can dream!

Deciding: on furniture.

Wishing: Summer would slow down and speed up all at once.

Enjoying: any and all quiet time.

Waiting: the second batch of birdies to hatch in my hanging basket. 

Liking: the current weather. Pants in July is just fine with me.

Wondering: if Stevie ever thinks about anything other than cars.

Loving: when you reconnect with old friends and not only pick up right where you left off, but also want to keep hanging out!

Pondering: always happens in the middle of the night.

Considering: a big trip somewhere – by myself. And another one with my husband. And another one with our friends. And another and another…

Hoping: Stevie loves kindergarten. 

Marveling: over the pain and sadness in our country and around the world.

Cringing: at my messy bedroom. 

Needing: to fold about 17 loads of laundry.

Knowing: busy season will come soon enough.

Thinking: my fam is all too far away.

Admiring: my former self, who used to paint her nails like every 3 days. Good for you, younger Jaana.

Sorting: my priorities. 

Getting: my first facial peel. I’m… scared?

Bookmarking: very leafy backyards and patios. 

Coveting: this new Arvo watch for Fall. (You can get 15% off with code: 469W383!!)

Opening: less packages this month. Gotta save up for all these dream vacations.

Giggling: with enough champs, everything is funny.

Feeling: excited for my friends who just bought a house (even though I insist that it’s too far from us).

Snacking: salt and vinegar almonds.

Hearing: Stevie hum a tune over and over. Don’t know where he learned it though.

Mixing: up my bra collection.
