It’s the first of the month (and I’m singing that like Bones Thugs) and it’s time for a little life update. I’m not a fan of April Fool’s Day unless the pranks are done by others on others, so you get no fake pregnancy announcements or weird stories today.
I am currently…
Wishing for sunshine and spring flowers. I was so excited last year when I realized I would actually experience spring time. Now this year, I’m being teased like I’m back in Minnesota.
Reading piled up magazines so they can be recycled. I’m waiting on a new round of books from the library. I’m excited to get going on them.
Taking photos for Helene’s Instagram Challenge. I’m sorry to any of my non-blogger friends who don’t participate in these or get annoyed of daily pictures, but I love doing these. They make me look around a little more in my day to day life and I love looking through other people’s pictures. Join us please and let me know your Instagram name so I can follow along (mine is @stephgregerson.)
Counting down until our epic Iceland adventure, but also our quick trip back to Minnesota for a wedding. I can’t wait to squeeze my nieces and tear up the dance floor with them. I saw some pictures recently and I think they’ve grown 8 years since December. I’m obsessed.
Putting off my spring cleaning list. I’m 40% done and that needle hasn’t moved… oops.
Watching Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. Somedays, I feel like that when I walk around New York City. OK, not that extreme, but I can relate to the ridiculousness of it. It’s a great show and everyone should watch it and fall in love with Tina Fey’s writing all over again.
Grateful for the girlfriends in my life. Between handwritten cards, matching friendship necklaces, emoji only text conversations and brunch dates, I am forever grateful.
A little sad that I had to say “see you later” to my first girlfriend here on the East Coast (hi Caitlin) this last weekend, but she is off on a new adventure and I can’t wait to visit her in her new home so we can continue our epic brunch dates. (And yes, this is the picture I chose, because rooftops – duh)
Proud of the healthy eating choices and exercise I’ve done this last month. Sorry, but I’m back in a weight range that I haven’t seen in a while and I feel like talking about it.
Drinking a Cab – don’t judge me, I write this at night time.
Craving Indian food. I had no idea how much I would love it. I can’t believe that it is the only kind of cuisine we don’t have available on Grubhub. Back to Murray Hill we will go… SOON.
What are you doing? Happy April Wiseman’s Day. Own it.
This faux spring is cramping my lifestyle. I hate weather years like this. If I wake up one day and it's 85 and humid I'm going to freak out.
I thought the point of Instagram was daily posting? I love when people post daily.
I'm so excited about the instagram challenge!
Mmm…Indian food. Way to go on the weight loss! You're allowed to talk about it all you want!
Now I want some indian food. I'm going to try to do the instagram challenge too, I'm carissajaded on there!
Yeah Spring really just needs to get it's crap together and stick around.
And we loved Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt!! I want to watch it again- I think it's one of those shows that will be even funnier the 2nd time around.
Spring is coming! I, like you, don't enjoy April Fool's Day…
I like the Instagram challenge – great idea!
I have a pile of magazines I really need to read and go through, too. They multiple really quickly, but I always get behind on reading 'em! That's a good photo challenge- might have to give it a whirl! I forget to Instagram a lot!
thank you so so much for giving the challenge a shout out! I have some friends doing it that aren't even bloggers!! so jealous you're going to iceland!
This is my first time joining in on an Instagram challenge – I'm excited! I hope it spurs my inspiration. Funny that you left Minnesota craving spring yet here MN is having 82 degree days already! Mmm Indian food. I might have to change my dinner plans now.
so awesome that you're at a happy weight! keep up the great work. it was 7C and sunny which obviously meant i drove around with the sunroof open and no coat. bring on the spring weather!!
Spring is finally here and this NYC looks nice! Enjoy the holiday weekend!
Oh, and if you want to travel to my neck of the woods there are a few great Indian spots. OM on 2nd Ave UES which has BYOB (wine) during the week, and Drunken Munkey on 92nd and 1st (make reservations) which is also a cocktail bar.
I'm loving the IG challenge as well 🙂
Supposedly, there is one more shitty, chilly day up around these parts, and then we will be hit with a beautiful weekend. Perhaps spring is finally going to sprung!
