A quick little update of our life currently.
I can’t even believe we’re rolling into April! Although I will say, I’m SO ready for it! Our Winter has felt like it’s been dragging on for ages now – though April doesn’t necessarily mean we’re totally done with the snow, it does bring enough warm, sunny days that it finally starts to feel more like Spring than Winter around here at least. I’m so looking forward to the snow to melting away so the roads and pathways around town will finally be clear enough to run outside again! Sunny walks with Charley, reading on the deck, watching Carson play out back – there’s so much to look forward to!
Things are still moving along with the renos of our second floor. The walls are all framed in, the electrical is officially done and all that we have left before we’re ready for drywall is to finish off the rough-in plumbing in our ensuite. A friend asked me the other day about when I thought we might be finished up in here and it was the first time I’d really thought about it. Honestly, I’m not sure when we’ll cross that finish line in here and I don’t really want to put a deadline on it – after more than a year and half since we started this journey, I’m just so happy to see some slow and steady progress and I’m content to give ourselves the time to make choices for these spaces that we really love instead of rushing through it all in the name of being done.
Speaking of choices we love, I finally settled on the perfect tile choices for our ensuite and got them all ordered up this week. It’s got me feeling even more excited to see this space come together! Hoping I’ll have more updates to share for these spaces soon!
Read on for a quick little update of where we are currently…
CURRENTLY
Reading: Just started this new book and already it’s been such a light and funny read.
Writing: Currently putting together a few posts about some simple Spring decor I’ve been scattering around the house.
Needing: My poor apple watch battery has been struggling to keep up with my runs lately as I train for my first half marathon of the year in May. Decided to upgrade to something a bit different this time around.
Creating: Currently pulling together some design plans for our bedroom. I’m SO unbelievably excited to bring this space to life!
Loving: Our Peloton Tread. I honestly don’t know how I ever managed to find the motivation to run on a treadmill before getting this one. It’s been such a great way to amp up my training.
To Do: Nearly every single item listed on this quick + easy project list. I’ve had a few new ideas I’m feeling more excited about though that have been distracting me (like a phase one reno of our kitchen or our mudroom).
Wearing: These Alpine Chelsea Boots have become my new Spring staple.
On my wish list: A trip to Europe – I’m thinking Italy or Croatia, I’m not picky. 😉
Planning: It feels like we’ve got so much on the go, it’s hard to keep track of it all. Currently working on design plans for our primary bedroom, then I’ll be moving on to our closet and Carson’s room.
Working for me right now: The sunny Spring weather we’ve been seeing lately!
What’s not: Having more reno and design ideas than time. Definitely going to have to make myself find some focus on just a few or we’ll never get anything done.
Anticipating: My first half-marathon of 2024 is just over a month away!
I’d LOVE to hear where are you currently! Let me know what’s new and exciting in the comments below.
Wishing you SUCH a lovely day my friends!
