Currently | Life in June 2024
Catching you up with all things currently.
The month of May was an eventful one at the very least. Filled with ups, downs and everything in between, this month definitely brought it’s fair share of unexpected our way.
Here are some of the highlights…
- I ran my 7th half marathon with a nasty cold. I have to say, it wasn’t my favourite race, but I’m proud that I managed to run it despite coming down sick the day before.
- We finished drywalling our primary bedroom, bathroom, closet and Carson’s room! Ready for someone else to come in to mud and tape.
- Carson broke his toe.
- Our oven malfunctioned, starting a fire and burning our dinner to a crisp. Thank goodness we caught it before it could spread!
- We narrowed down our moulding choices for the house. Hoping to get it all ordered up in the next couple of weeks here.
- I read 5 books, catch my reviews of them in my Insta Stories here.
Read on for a quick little update of where we are currently…
CURRENTLY
Reading: Really loving my latest read so far. Her other book was one of my favourite reads last year, so I’ve got high hopes for this new one!
Writing: A list of things I still need to order for our renovations: bed, nightstands, area rugs, panelling & trim, doors, window coverings, closet system, (I’m sure there’s more).
Needing: Still need to choose a rug for our bedroom – which do love more? Neutral or colourful?
Creating: Some design plans for our new walk-in closet. You can see the direction I’m going with things here.
Loving: I don’t know what I’d do without this thing. I love that it keeps my drinks cold and it’s amazing how much more water I drink when I don’t have a lid to screw off.
To Do: Still chipping away at our second floor renovations. With all of the drywall hung, we’re hiring out the mudding and taping so that we can get the ensuite bathroom prepped for tile (see our design plans for our ensuite here).
Wearing: Now that the weather is finally warming up, I’ve been living in my all-time favourite shorts. Love how they pair so perfectly with this new cropped t-shirt.
On my wish list: I think this arched floor mirror would look so perfect in our new bedroom.
Planning: A list of quick + easy projects I’d like to tackle through the summer. You can catch my last list here.
Working for me right now: This brilliant watch has been keeping track of my water intake, sleep scores (it tracks my sleep cycles all night long) and even my stress levels. It’s been the best motivator to get my steps in and I love how comprehensively it keeps track of my health habits.
What’s not: Between an awful cold at the beginning of the month and my seasonal allergies kicking in right after that, I’ve had a hard time getting back into running since my race. Here’s hoping I can find my mojo again soon because I’ve already signed up for two more 1/2 marathons this summer!
Anticipating: Seeing our bedroom come together. After watching Brady bring my vision for this arch to life, I just can’t wait to see how the rest of this room turns out!
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!
