Currently and OLW for 2014!

Hello, 2014! I am sneaking on super quickly to link up with a couple of my favorites today. Then I’m going to disappear into craftiness for the rest of the afternoon. I will finish those projects, darn it!


First up, January Currently!


Can you tell I have a ton going on?! My husband is in med school so he’s been off all winter break with me. It’s been awesome to spend time together, but he has been working on a few projects too and has the office MES-SY! I took a picture and threatened to put it on Instagram for the world to see so he’s up there moving stuff around. I’m hanging low down here on the couch. Not going in there, people.



But I am loving the time together, the shopping, and the extra puppy cuddles. I really do love my third graders, but these nice long breaks always make me wish for more time at home too. It’s been so nice to shop, craft, sew, catch up on movies, and generally just enjoy life at a slower pace. Maybe I’ll retire. 😉

We did quite a bit of traveling for the holidays too. My family is in Louisville so we traveled down twice last week (just over 3 hours one way). We went once for my extended family Christmas and once for my parents’ Christmas. Of course we forgot the 5 pounds of Oreo Snowballs I made for my brother. Duh. My hubby shipped them off though, yay hubby!

My sweet nephew is 18 months old now and was just too fun opening presents. He’s super into Little Baby Bum on YouTube so Aunt Christi was so happy she brought her laptop. I got lots of baby snuggles in while we watched with me. He already know so many of the little finger plays that go with the songs from his school. Adorable! I’d love to post pics but this is still the internet and he isn’t my baby. Sigh. 😉


I want to see what you’re up to also so go link up!

*switching gears*

I also wanted to link up with Sunny Days in Second for My Truth Monday because this week is One Little Word. I seriously get a little choked up thinking about 2013 and have so many big dreams and goals for 2014.
I really felt like 2013 was my year personally and professionally. The thought of 2014 is exciting! I have an entire year ahead of me to grow and challenge myself even more. It gives me goosebumps thinking about the opportunities that are ahead of me. I made it my goal in 2013 to push myself out of my comfort zone and take risks. Those have paid off tremendously, so 2014 is all about the opportunity to open even more doors and be in a position to pay it forward even more. Watch out people, Plaid Apple Ltd. is on fire! 
What’s your OLW? Link up!

Okay, I think that’s it. My half-finished projects are calling my name. Time to be productive. Here’s to hoping they turn out well so I can share them!

  1. The Instagram photo idea is genius!!! You are too funny. I found you through Farley's link-up, but just saw that you are a Jamberry Nails gal. I will be sure to get in touch with you next time I order! I love the no-drying time…that was the deal maker for me! 🙂

  2. My husband is a teacher at the same school I am at, so we always have the same breaks. It is so nice to be able to share time with one another at a "slower pace life."

    I hope you finished your craft projects!!
