Planning
Outfits for my next capsule and for my return to work next week. I talked about that yesterday in case you missed it! It's a welcome distraction from thinking about what it's going to be like to leave my baby at daycare everyday and function again in the working world after being gone for 10 weeks.
Hoping
My mind is on all things baby right now and I'm having a very emotional and reflective week as my maternity leave comes to an end so I'll have to say that I'm hoping that I kick ass in this next season of life. That I manage to continue to have the same care and dedication I had been giving professionally all while giving everything I've got both physically and emotionally to providing for our son. Deep stuff around here today. :)
Baking
Nothing and that's for the best because I'm a horrible baker. I tried making chocolate covered peanuts in the crockpot and even screwed that up. They looked awful but tasted good so instead of giving them away like I planned I kept them all for myself. So maybe that's a win?
Wearing
These slippers from my mother-in-law all the time lately. Slippers are one of those things I can never talk myself into buying because I'd rather spend the money on footwear that can be worn outside of my house so they're always a perfect gift for me. Loving this pair with the fur!
Resolving
Have I ever mentioned how bad of a goal setter I am? It's pretty bad, which is probably why I've never gotten into the whole new year's resolution thing. Maybe I should work on that this year!
Oh those slippers look so warm and cozy! And I hate setting goals too. I think your hopes make sense. And I'd say keeping those chocolate covered peanuts is a win!
ReplyDeletePopping in from the Currently link up... and so glad I did! I have a 16 week old baby girl, so it's nice to find more people going through some of the same things! Best of luck on Monday!
ReplyDeleteI hope you do kick ass at all of that - and I think you totally can (though it's important we remember to give ourselves a break sometimes!). Good luck with it all, and you've totally got some cute outfits lined up for it :) Love the slippers too. Thanks for linking up with us!

They are fantastic slippers!! Here's the link to them...it looks like they sell them at Macy's, but when I looked on their website they were on sale with online the navy left in like a size 6/7 or something!:
