Lately

Lately:

• I’ve been wearing the promise ring that I so desperately wanted J to replace with an engagement ring instead of my wedding set.  I don’t know why.  My wedding set is gorgeous to me, but I just like something about the simplicity of the band with the engagement ring.  I mean–either way it still looks like I’m married–so no big deal, right?  I honestly think it’s because I like the look of my engagement ring on it’s own–and this is closer to that.

• I have been sleeping so so well.  You know, if you’ve hung around here long enough that I completely suck at sleeping.  I rely solely on sleep aids and even then I’d wake up multiple times a night.  Well, since last Wednesday night, I haven’t taken a single sleep aid!  And aside from waking up to pee (which I’ve actually been falling right back to sleep after), I’ve had NO problems!  J swears it’s because my anxiety level has decreased immensely now that I’m home all day.
• I’ve been working hard on a project (aside from unpacking the house) that I’m really anxious to get out there for you guys.  Everything is pretty much set up–now I just have to make it happen! I should be posting/announcing in the next few days! Yay!
• I’ve been happy.  I’m usually (or at least I USED to be) a pretty happy person-but had found myself complaining and sad way too often the last few years.  Things have been in a perpetual state of either up in the air or let’s just get through this for the last few years.  And I’m happy to say, I’m happy just the way things are right now.
• It’s been relatively warm here, so I busted out the flip flops.  Aside from the fact that my toe nails need some desperate attention, my feet have lived in socks since September mostly because they have been so rough gross, I know.  I found this stuff at Walmart for less than $4, so I figured I’d give it a go.  It’s doing the trick!
