Currently...


I figured this was a good time for another 'Currently' post because I'm participating in a 24 hour write-a-thon right now. So that picture is about as current as I can get! :)

Listening To: No audiobook sadly. Although I did listen to The Key to Extraordinary by Natalie Lloyd back in...September? I think. The narrator for that audio is fabulous! She has the perfect southern twang to go with Natalie's words and it was a delightful listen.

Reading:  I just finished Finding Audrey late last night. SO good. It was just as fun as all my blogging friends have said. :) Now I'm planning to get back to Intermission, which is wonderful for the record! Plus I have Where Two Hearts Meet patiently waiting for me as well (I just read book one of this series, The Red Door Inn the other day and so good, people. So good!). So many books, so little time.

Enjoying: Life. There's been some hard days, but there's been so many more beautiful moments to offset that hard! After hearing about the death of a young man I knew of a few weeks ago, I was reminded yet again that we shouldn't take life for granted. Enjoy it now! No matter how hard, it is still a gift to be alive.

Watching: I haven't watched anything recently actually. But! I did win a copy of Gilmore Girls Season One through Rissi's Booktube channel. (Yay!!) So I think I'm going to watch that soonish. Plus I'm excited for A Year in the Life which comes out in just a few weeks!
Look at all the fun stuff I won! :)
Feeling: Comfortable. There's just something so entirely soothing about spending several hours writing my thoughts! Especially when I'm doing it surrounded by friends who understand that feeling and are writing as well. It's been a lovely day!

Craving: I had been craving Chipotle earlier today, so I had it for lunch. Yum!

Loving: All the bookish fun I'm having over on my bookstagram account! Book people are the best, aren't they? :)

Anticipating: Christmas and Hallmark movies! I know they've already started showing them, but I haven't watched any yet. I hope to soon! Hallmark's Christmas movies just make me happy. As y'all well know because I gush over them every year, don't I? :D

So how's life for you??

    2. Rissi: Thank you!! :) Audrey is really well done. Especially when it comes to describing how a teenage girl tries to deal with anxiety and whatever else she's struggling with mentally. She's a strong girl though and definitely worth meeting!

      Yay for Gilmore Girls! Thank you SO much! Again. :)

      Looking forward to the Hallmark Christmas movies and WTHM!! Happy reading to you, friend.

  3. I'm glad you liked Finding Audrey. I've been binge watching Gilmore Girls. I doubt I'll make it through them all for the new episodes but oh well. A girl can try.

  4. Congrats on winning Rissi's Gilmore contest! How fun! Looks like it included some real cute stuff!

    Also, Hallmark's Christmas Movies are kind of my thing... So, I must say I think you will really enjoy them this year!!! I've seen three, and Lacey Chabert's (the first movie I watched!) is still my favorite, so far!

    Happy writing to you & enjoying LIFE!!! :)

    God's a Blessings!!! Net

    1. Net: Thank you! It certainly did. :)

      I have finally gotten to some of this years Christmas movies! I loved Lacey's for sure. It was really cute! I rather liked A December Bride too. I love Denise Hunter's book, so was looking forward to that one tremendously. I'm so happy I wasn't disappointed! :)

      Can't wait to watch the rest of Hallmark's lineup. I always appreciate your site for helping me keep track of what's happening when!

      God's blessings back to you, friend. Thanks so much for stopping by!
