Taking Stock {March 2015} | Life
With all of the stuff going on in the last week or two and my Tafe course nearing it's end, I thought it was time to once again take stock...
Making : Plans for some de-cluttering and rearranging we're going to be doing around the house in the next couple of weeks.
Cooking : Pancakes for dinner. Dave is on night shift and I'll be at Tafe all day, so it's really the easiest thing. Plus I can make a double-batch for the girls to have as snacks over the next couple of days
Drinking : Copious amounts of coffee. As always.
Reading : The 6th book in the Harry Potter series, The Half-Blood Prince.
Wanting : To spend a week by myself (ok, Dave can come too, I spose).
Looking : At the state of this house and how we are actually going to manage this decluttering and rearranging!
Playing: Stupid phone games. They're addictive.
Deciding : Whether or not I should stay blonde when I next get a haircut.
Wishing : I could start the Diploma at Tafe straight away rather than having to wait until next year.
Enjoying : The cooler autumn weather, especially in the afternoons & evenings.
Waiting : For our mini-trip down to my sister's place at Easter.
Liking : The fact that Punky seems to be settling in to preschool a bit better.
Wondering : If we will get much back at tax time this year, we could really do with an injection of cash after the last couple of days with car regos, etc.
Loving : My new flash unit and playing around with it. I'm still firmly an available light lover and photographer but I am loving the possibilities that a good flash unit holds.
Pondering : The NSW state election and who the hell I'm going to vote for.
Considering : What we need to get rid of and what we need to hang on to.
Watching : The final few episodes of The Walking Dead season 5 and wishing there were more episodes to go.
Hoping : That Punky makes a friend in the new girl at preschool. The signs look promising.
Marvelling : At how much I've learnt and how much my photography has improved in the 7 short weeks since I started Tafe.
Needing : Honestly everything on my list is a want, not a need. It would still be nice to have what I want though!
Smelling : My old friend Joop, and thinking I need to request some more of my other perfume, Truth by Calvin Klein, for my birthday. It's almost all gone!
Wearing : My usual mummy outfit, jeans and a singlet. I'm such a fashionista!
Following : The football again, because I joined a tipping comp for the first time in 3 years.
Noticing : The light. Ever since starting Tafe and learning about studio lighting, fill flash, etc I find myself analysing the lighting in photographs and TV shows so closely.
Knowing : That choosing to study photography and pursue it as a career is absolutely, 100% the best decision I've ever made.
Thinking : I really need to get my hair done.
Admiring : This lovely ladies photos. I'm in love.
Sorting : Baby clothes and deciding on a couple of things to keep for the girl's glory boxes and what to pass on to my sister and others.
Buying : A new car in a few months time. I can't wait!
Getting : Pissed off at the makers of feminie hygiene products!
Bookmarking : This post by JJ.
Disliking : The fact that I'm not going to have the money for a ProBlogger ticket again this year. Gutted!
Opening : Lovely little packages from lovely bloggers.
Giggling : At Zee, she is just the funniest, cheekiest little monkey!
Feeling : Sad that my babies are growing up and knowing that I probably won't have any more.
Snacking : On some Carmen's dark chocolate espresso muesli bars. So good!
Coveting : The new Macbook Pro. I'm going to need to invest in a laptop for when I do the Diploma course next year and it's at the top of my list!
Wishing : We didn't have to say goodbye.
Helping : Dave beat his addiction to Clash of Clans. It's not working.
Hearing : The sound of my girls laughing and playing together. It's not all sunshine and lollipops between them, but they are definitely playing together more and more as Zee gets older and it makes my heart happy.
So that's what's been happening around these parts lately. How about you? Let me know what's been going on with you.
