Whenever I am feeling uninspired, overwhelmed, or like the brain that I once had has suddenly vanished and escaped forever, I end up doing a currently post. They are easy, they are fun, and well, they are easy. So without further ado, currently I am…

+ Watching: A swan float by on the river. While that sounds very magical and pretty, I am pretty confident swans eat humans heads. Just keep that in mind when you get jealous of the girl who is posting pictures of swans in her backyard on Instagram. Because you my friend will be alive to see tomorrow, she most likely will not. 
+ Eating: These ridiculously expensive Rold Gold pretzels with hummus. They are those “grab and go” kind where they get away with charging $10 for 6 mini little containers and idiots like me pay that for it because idiots like me do a lot of things we shouldn’t do. 
+ Forgetting: Everything. One might think I am pregnant but no, I just don’t have a clock up in the house. About that 2:00 call I was supposed to be on this afternoon….#oops
+ Excited For: Eric Church this week in concert with friends. I don’t know if you have ever seen Eric live but he does this thing where he bangs on his chest like a gorilla because he is that excited [or high] about being on stage that it all just comes out like a wild animal and I love it. 
+ Loving: The back splash that went up in our kitchen this week. It’s amazing what little pieces of tile can do for one’s spirit but my spirit is resembling one of a salsa dancer. 
More pictures of the home progress to follow sometime soon. 
+ Laughing At: The event that happened during the installation of the back splash. Our poor installer, I hope he isn’t reading this. So I’m busy minding my own in our bedroom when all of a sudden I start smelling smoke. I poke my head out into the hallway only to find [or technically speaking not to find] the installers head buried in a pile of smoke. He pops up and says something to the extent of how he must have turned on a stove burner accidentally and the roll of laminate that he was using to cover the counter tops caught on fire. If you are ever wondering what burned laminate looks like, here you are. Just know it smelled as good as it looks like it would smell. 
Needless to say the house didn’t burn down and we will not be collecting any type of insurance soon. 
And there we have it. I am going to go play pretend now that my floors aren’t covered in dust, we have a counter top on our center island, and that you can actually see the walls of the guest bedroom. Wish me luck.
