The start of a new month must mean one thing... it's time for another Currently post! I've said it time and time again but these posts are some of my favorite to put together! I can't wait to see what everyone else is "currently" up to!
wishing: If you've spent any amount of time around here, you know that I'm consumed with de-cluttering and organizing our house using the KonMari method. It's a 26 WEEK challenge that I'm committed to but I really WISH there was more time to get things done! Seems like I end up making a bigger mess in the time I have. But, it's always waiting for me when I get back to it! ;) It will be worth it. It WILL be worth it!
craving: Desperately craving time with my man! This time last year we were getting ready for a little Vegas get away but between all the kids activities and the KM method of
going: Holden turns 11 at the end of our Spring Break and we will celebrate by going to Fort Worth. We convinced Shelly and Carly to come with us and we can't wait! A weekend of just girls doing just what we want to do?! Yes, please!
wearing: Since Operation Closet Purge has concluded, I have been wearing lots of things that I honestly forgot I even had!
learning: I'm learning that parenting isn't for sissies! I recently posted 10 things I want my kids to know before they move out and I think God thought I needed extra practice! Phew! Last week was rough but thankfully this week has been better.
What are you currently up to?

Happy Wednesday. Hope you're enjoying your first week of March. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lux! Hope you're having a great week too!
DeleteOh girl's weekend away.. I bet she will love it. I remember age 11 and 12, right before teenage years hit. Enjoy, enjoy!
ReplyDeleteHaha - the calm before the storm, right?! :) I can't wait to get away and just love on her with no siblings. Sometimes being the middle can be tough.
DeleteMam....you totally should have inserted some sweet selfies of all the adorable outfits you've been wearing!! Cant wait for FW!!
ReplyDeleteHaha - I'll save those just for you! I seriously am geeked out excited about Fort Worth! Can't wait!
DeleteAnd - how creepy did my reply sound?! Haha - what I meant was that I'll just share my outfit selfies with my personal fashion expert! ;)
DeleteI need to try the declutter challenge, we need to get things out of the house before we move.
ReplyDeleteThat's the PERFECT time to declutter! Definitely get rid of anything you don't want BEFORE you move!!! Good luck!
DeleteI LOVE doing organizing projects like that, but it really is way more satisfying when there's enough time, right? I haven't quite tackled the KonMari thing yet, with a toddler around... And on that note I feel you on the parenting ups and downs. Here's to a good week to come :) Thanks for linking up!
ReplyDeleteHi, Anne! Thanks so much for stopping by! Oh, yes, time! It's so hard to find the time but so worth it. I'm finding that I get an hour here and an hour there. I have to make good use of those little bursts. But, when I see the finished products, it's almost tear worthy!
DeleteOperation Closet Purge has been a disaster in my house! I ordered a new closet organizer from The Container Store but it took 3 weeks to arrive and then they sent the wrong size! So I've had my clothes ALL over the house for weeks and it's driving me insane!! I hope you and your man get some you time soon! I LOVE Fort Worth! I went to high school there :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up!
Oh, girl! I am SO sorry!!! I dumped my closet 4 (yes FOUR!) times during Operation Closet Purge so I totally understand! I hope all your items arrive soon! Once you get it all done, I PROMISE it's worth it and you will love going in to your closet again!
DeleteAny FW restaurant suggestions for four girls - two of them being tweens? :)
I'm craving time with my man too! We leave for Mexico in 10 days and I can hardly wait. The countdown is ON!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for linking up with me! Have a fabulous week! XOXO and Choose Happy -Becky
SO jealous, Becky!!! A getaway sounds amazing! I know you will LOVE having all that time with him! Enjoy!!!
DeleteThanks for hosting! I'll see you again next week!

I picture grandparenting as the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow!
DeleteThanks so much for hosting and for stopping by! I hope you have a great weekend!
Your girls trip sounds like it will be so much fun! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up!
We can't wait! It's going to be so fun!
DeleteThanks for hosting and for stopping by!
It's so frustrating to get everything decluttered and in order. But at least once you are finished with the first major round, everything gets so much easier!!
ReplyDeleteI can totally see that, Jamie! I was worried that the areas I have already completed would re-clutter but so far, so good! I'm ready to get to the maintenance part versus the de-clutter part! ;) Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you're having a great day!
DeleteSo cool that you've been wearing stuff you forgot you had! That's awesome. I need to go through my closet and do that too.
ReplyDeleteIt's now fun to go in my closet and see what I can pull together! Before it was just "ugh"! Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you'll stop by again soon!
DeleteA girls weekend sounds fun and perfect! Enjoy it! As for parenting...definitely not for sissies....they hurt, I hurt. IT's emotionally draining and exhausting and yet I wouldn't change it for the world!
ReplyDelete"It's emotionally draining and exhausting and yet I wouldn't change it for the world!" - I couldn't agree more!!! Thanks so much for stopping by!
