taking stock//03


^^^this is an announcement to the world that this bad, blurry phone pic is a documentation of me completely, blissfully happy thanks to christmas music in july, a clean bedroom, sunday afternoons, and my pumpkin pecan waffle candle, which i was probably high off of because it had been burning for a couple of hours at this point

Making : a woven tapestry to hang on my wall. yep, wooooven tapestry 
Cooking : has actually become a relaxing hobby of mine. i have an urge to cook a lot more lately, and it usually comes around ten o'clock at night. it's weird. just call me miss domestic. 
Reading: Never Have I Ever My Life (So Far) Without a Date- while i have been on a date, lots of dates, too many dates even, (that's a whole other subject) this book is hilarious and very relate-able  
Wanting: rain. the weather has been tricking us with almost rain, but we desperately need the rain. plus, i love how you can see the difference between the dry desert sky and the sky after it's just rained. it really washes everything away
Sewing: and wondering how i can make the same dress three times and it turns out different every time

Wishing: ...paris....
Enjoying: all of the friends i've accumulated from work (i don't really like the word accumulated here because it makes them sound like things, but they're people. there's just not a better word i can think of right now, so i clarify.)

Waiting: to fall asleep. i've been much more of a nightowl lately, but i guess i've always been a nightowl, so i'm just returning to old habits
Liking: tomatoes, zucchini, mushrooms, and avocados. like a lot. way more than usual 
Wondering: why i've been having such weird dreams lately. like last night in my dream i was about to have a baby? can someone please tell me what's going on. i mean i  love babies, and i want babies eventually, but no dreams where i'm about to birth a baby please!
Loving: photoshopping cats into every picture that i have to send out in emails, etc. and the worse of a photoshopped job it is, the better

Hoping: always. always hoping. isn't it wonderful that we can always have hope?
Marvelling: at how it's august already. but really. i mean, i'm happy about it, but how did it become august so fast?
Needing: more pillows on my bed i think. i have eight, but to have ten or eighteen would be nice.
Smelling: earlier today i was smelling our stinky kitchen so i cleaned it....
Wearing: this one white knit shirt i have, like every day. i change into it when i come home from work. at least i haven't slept in it yet.
Noticing: the sweet nostalgia of looking at old pictures. i'm glad that i've come to a point where when i feel it, i miss it, but it's not a kind of missing that makes me rather be there in the past than here in the present. it's a sweet feeling remember the happy times and letting them stay as memories
Knowing: i'm really going to regret staying up really late tomorrow at church 
Thinking: about how hard it is to cut your own hair. i bet i could do it. i just am never happy with the job that anyone else does, so if i do it myself, i've got no one else to blame, right?
Feeling: the christmas spirit! it comes earlier and earlier every year!
Bookmarking: the best places to visit in paris
Giggling: with joy and happiness because my best friend lara comes home from her mission in seventeen days and i miss her so much and i can't wait to see her! it's been almost two whole years since i've seen her face
