Currently Edition 4

Oh hello!  My last Currently was in December! My how time has flown!  Already 11 days into April.  OH and FYI, it's been 105 years since Titanic's maiden voyage (NERD ALERT, if you have read my past blogs, you know I am a Titanic fan) and on April 14, it's been 105 years since she sunk.  Since I was 11 I have been remembering this date as if it should be a national day on calendars, to remember.

ANYWAY...April 11! So much has happened since December.  Work pace has picked up, I am heading 3 brand new, and time consuming projects that are actually SO MUCH FUN and I am loving them.  But...alas this is not a blog about my job, it's about the going on's in my life! Here goes nothing...

Drinking

 This isn't really as exciting when it's not a festive time of year...but the usualy, coffee from the Keurig in the AM with almond milk.. TONS of H2O throughout the day, I think I spend equal amounts of time at my desk and in the bathroom because I have to go alllll day with all this water.  I will be doing a dry time from June 4th (after a weekend trip with friends) through July 18th (BF and I go to Europe!!! That'll be a blog, don't worry) so that month will be no soda, which I hardly drink anyway, no alcohol, no juices, water and coffee with no added sugars only.

Eating

 I don't talk about this much with the world, but I do Weight Watchers...to lose weight AND for the lifestyle changes it instills in me.  Anyway.. since June of last year I have lost a substantial amount of weight.  I go slowly but surely on it but it has opened my eyes to how TERRIBLE some stuff is...like I know it's terrible but I didn't realize HOW terrible.  So it has been good!  And boyfriend enjoys the recipes I make too, so that's a plus! Here's to HEALTHY!  Plus side is you can still eat whatever the heck you want...but it helps you understand portion, moderation, and helps make healthier choices!

Listening

 BIG LITTLE LIES SOUNDTRACK ON REPEAT- that is seriously all you need in life right now.  It's SO GOOD.

Also S-Town Podcast. LISTEN. GO. NOW.

Wearing

  LA cannot make up it's mind, one day it's 79-82 degrees-ish and the next it's 65.  And it's been raining A LOT! So I have only broken out sandals a couple times.  And since my doctor is out the whole month of April...it's casual jeans, vans, and button ups or t- shirts for me right now. Which is amazing.

Wanting

 KITCHEN STUFF.  I have been an amazon FIEND lately getting all the gadgets I can get my hands on!  Practical, but fun ones.  I want the Veggie Bullet SO BAD, that's on my list of wants.

Reading

 I haven't read in a while...I have Devil in a White City downloaded on my kindle...I figure I will save it for my 10 hour flight to London in July if I haven't started it yet.

Watching

 Little Big Lies is my recent favorit! Now that it's done.... SADNESS.  I watched The Crown also, it was AMAZING.  Need a new show- STAT.

4 Goodbyes...

If you are faint of heart...don't read this blog post. Death for me was a distant thought, I had seen it in movies, I had watched friends lose friends and family members, but up until the last few months, I hadn't personally experienced it, minus my great-grandmother when I was 17, she was 99 and healthy, just died in her sleep of old age and I was not close to her so I really didn't feel all the feels. My experiences started several months ago, some meant a lot to me, some were just weird and some gut wrenching. I was a nanny for several years, before I moved to LA 2.5 years ago, for many different families and usually ended on wonderful notes with each family when I parted ways, however, with on in particular mom, it ended not so sweetly. Her name was Kim, and I was basically hired to be her friend.  She was a surgeon's wife and had two kiddos.  She wanted companionship, someone to talk to and hang out with, she fast became someone I could tell all my stories ...

Giving & Thanks

Well....INSPO from one of my favorite bloggers whom I feel like I am friends with even though we have never met personally but we "follow" each other's lives from one big city to the other across the USA and engage with each other--- ALL THAT creepiness being said, her blog is  here .  ANYWAY, the whole point of that paragraph was that I felt, even though I rarely write/blog anymore, I should write a thankful/grateful post! I enjoy a good list so I will be listing these out- First and foremost, I don't care how gross you think I am but I am thankful for Almond Nog, Trader Joes' version of Almond Milk Egg Nog, don't know how it all works, but it's damn delicious and has been in my gingerbread ground coffee also from Trader Joes, every single morning this week!  Yes I am a sucker for seasonal flavors, I am what they call #basic, and I own it. AIR TRAVEL, even though I know LAX will be a complete cluster F tonight I am thankful that once I board...

Bandwagon(s)

In 1855 the term bandwagon was created and first used-originally it was a large, ornate wagon that carried musicians that were part of a band usually in circuses. I'm not sure when the term expanded to what we use it for now, but anyway, this is a term I use ALL THE TIME.  There are bandwagon fans, which if you think about it, everyone is one at one point in their lives; the loyalties start by jumping on a bandwagon with other fans, whether that be following in your families foot steps or deciding on the team on your own, it all starts by hopping on board.  There are also bandwagon trends-copying the latest fashion or hobby all falls under the category. I lately and FINALLY might I add, got back on the exercise/health/fitness bandwagon.  I fell off back in June-ish and I have had a hard time finding it and getting back on until last Monday.  I guess you could say I had an epiphany (another word I love to overuse) when I found photos of me from not even that long ...
