Currently September 2023

Hello Hello! I made a video of me working on my September spread for my Currently Workbook.

Here it is:

This month I printed out this photo:

And added it to my spread!

I got the pages very inky!

Here’s my note to myself:

I shared my weight loss journey on my blog this month! Thank you so much for your kind & thoughtful comments. I appreciate the encouragement and I am so happy that I have been able to inspire so many of you on your own journey!

Let’s get into it:

Inspired By:

Inspired by my garden! I got some later blooms this summer and they were a nice surprise.

Art day with Neiley!

Casey went on a 3D printing rampage this month and made me some fun things to play with for my journaling.

We traveled to Nashville to watch Cooper play in the New Balance Future Star Series this month.

What a fantastic feeling to see your kid on the big screen!

I am very proud of how hard he has worked!

I got to see Zan!!

And spend time with my niece!

This month I got a blurb in Real Simple for my meal prep strategies!

I swam in the BAY! I brought back a lot of childhood memories.

I also went to a silent disco with a bunch of girlfriends.

And Mother Son night at school!

Watching boys be so free with their bodies DANCING was very inspiring.

I wonder how much Fortnite has improved people’s dancing skills over the years…

Recording things with MC! Making magic. Stay tuned!

Another art adventure! This time an auction!

I AM INSPIRED BY THE LEAVES CHANGING COLOR & LAUGHTER!!!!

Watching:

Tetris
Don’t Worry Darling
Happiness for Beginners
50/50
Youtube

Reading:

Unbroken Book Club with MC! I so enjoy the writing prompts and hearing people’s shares!

It’s fun to be able to be part of the book club this time around. I was behind the scenes making notes and now I’m a participant!

Going through my Thanksgiving prep from the past so I can build a pop-up workshop with Helen Jane!

While on our trip I read Do You Mind if I Cancel

Thinking About:

my high school experience

Listening To:

Dream Life:

I’ve been lucid dreaming which is cool because it’s been a while.

Eating/Drinking:

I spent the time to roundup the things I have been eating this past year:

Gluten-Free Lunch Ideas

Gluten-Free Breakfast Ideas

I made Cooper millionaire’s bacon a couple of times this month.

I am working on my gluten-free dinner post! I like burger salads a lot. Stay tuned.

I did meal prep a couple of times this month. I made videos for my subscribers on YOUTUBE instead of doing the same old overhead shot.

I also shared my favorite breakfast on Instagram. Here’s the video of it:
