What’s Up Wednesday
I’m linking up with Sheaffer and Shay for What’s Up Wednesday!
WHAT WE’RE EATING
WHAT I’M REMINISCING ABOUT
My Dad.
My Dad is currently living with Vascular Dementia and oh how I miss what he used to be capable of doing. My heart aches for my Mom, too. I’ll take any prayers that you may have and any advice if you’ve ever had a loved one endure this horrific disease.
Gosh I love him.
WHAT I’M LOVING
WHAT WE’VE BEEN UP TO
Decluttering all the things!
I’ve really been going for it. I posted a little glimpse into our crawl space and part of the “why” of this massive decluttering journey here. I’ve since gone through board games, more toys, the car, our kitchen cabinets and my closet. It seems endless, but I can feel my brain clearing itself of all the clutter and it feels absolutely magical.
WHAT I’M EXCITED ABOUT
We’re about to host a bunch of friends for the weekend and while we’re super nervous that all goes well, we’re also super excited!
The girls and I did manage to work on some Fourth of July decor. They did great and had so much fun making their own little Uncle Sam!
I shared their fun project on my IG stories – my handle over there is overatmaries. 😉
WHAT I’M WATCHING/READING
The Hobbit.
I’m currently reading The Hobbit to the kids (Henry and Eliza). I’m hoping to finish it up by mid-July, but these summer nights have been slowing us down just a tad. It’s a great book and the kids are definitely interested!
WHAT I’M LISTENING TO
All the same podcasts as last month.
I’ve been listening to a lot of podcasts.
My current favorites:
Thrive
Blogging Unscripted
Clutterbug Podcast
Crush the Rush
Unruffled
Wannabe Minimalist
WHAT I’M WEARING
Amazon fashion for the win!
Jon and I recently went to a Dave Matthews concert down in Indiana and I wasn’t sure what to wear since we’d be in almost 90 degree weather and I knew I wanted to be able to have room for a food baby 😉 LOL!
I’m so used to wearing leggings and biker shorts, but it felt so nice to wear actual shorts for a change. I tried on a bodysuit, but I found this shirt from Amazon and you guys, it was PERFECT!
WHAT I’M DOING THIS WEEKEND
See above – PARTY TIME! 😉
WHAT I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT MONTH
I’m looking forward to weeks full of a clean and decluttered home without much of an agenda.
We plan to go see my Dad for his birthday and then we may head to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula for a fun little getaway.
FAVORITE AMAZON FINDS
I recently just ordered these items for myself for the weekend…
