Currently July


I can’t believe that it’s time to link up with Farley again for this month’s Currently!  It feels like summer just started and then I look at our busy July calendar and realize it’s going to be over before I know it!
Currently July


Listening:  My girls are dancers and they still love Dance Moms.  The yelling on this episode is out of control!  I really do think that almost if not all of the fighting is made up for TV.  We stayed on the same floor as the dance moms, the girls, and Abby at a hotel two years ago and they all got along really well.


Loving:  Loft had a huge sale on Friday…50% off the entire store.  I bought a pair of linen jogger pants and Oh. My. Word.  They are the most comfortable pants ever.  I felt like I was wearing pajamas all day!  I was so excited when I got an email that the sale was extended to the next day, so of course I had to go back and get another pair!


joggers
These are the pants!
 
Thinking:  That I am excited for my retreat with my third grade team, we are going to a local resort!  But, I am super bummed that I will be missing all of the Vegas fun.  So, I will be living vicariously through all of your Instagram posts.  I’ve already started making plans to be there next year though!  Vegas 2016!!!


Wanting:  Nothing!  Let me tell you, that is pretty rare for me.  There is usually something that I have my eye on or that I’m working towards.  Right now, I am so content.  My girls just got home from an amazing week at church camp in California, my husband has the week off and has been grilling yummy dinners, and I have gotten back in a great gym routine.  Life is good and my heart is full!


Needing:  We leave at the end of the week for Fellowship of Christian Athlete’s camp in Flagstaff!  It’s so great to get out of the desert heat and to fellowship with other coaches’ wives.  It’s one of the highlights of my summer every year!


All Star:  I would have to say helping.  I have a hard time saying no when people need help with something.  Whether it’s help with something at school, help finishing a craft, help with errands or meals.  Most people know that if they ask, I will do it!


I can’t believe that I got my Currently done so early and I can’t wait to head on over to Farley’s blog and read what everyone else is up to!

  1. Linen pants and yummy grilled dinners, it sounds like you're having a great week! I have been searching for some loose-leg linen pants and can't find any that aren't scratchy. :( Maybe I should check the loft and see if they have any like what I'm looking for. Thanks for sharing!

  3. I love the LOFT! I can't go in there without a coupon unless they are having a huge sale. I really like their jewelry. I am not going to Vegas either, maybe next year. :)

  4. I'm much like you, I like to help people and have trouble saying "no". If it isn't much of an inconvenience for me, I never mind helping when help is needed. I guess it's not a bad thing, right?

    1. It's definitely not a bad thing unless it starts to take over and interfere with my family responsibilities! I still have a hard time saying no, but I have learned how to have healthy boundaries!
      Hopefully we will see each other in Vegas next year!

  5. I, too, struggled with the "wanting" portion this month. Life is good. How wonderful that your team gets together! That is rare . . .and special. (I, too am going to live vicariously through Twitter and Instagram!)

    1. We really are blessed that our team gets along so well! We have seriously been missing each other this summer! It's so weird to go from eating lunch with people and sharing stories everyday to not seeing them at all! I'm excited for our mini-retreat and will try and blog all about it!

  6. A retreat with your grade level sounds AMAZING! I love that you are content and want/need nothing.
