this and that

I am a 'plan ahead person'

at the beginning of every week I sit down with my planner and write my list

my list consists of each day-to-day task i.e. work, gym, dinner etc.

I make a list of 'have to's' i.e. young women's, meetings, any obligations

then I make a list of needs/wants i.e. any cleaning, crafts, normal to-do's

and it seems like every week I have unrealistic expectations

I seem to think I have way more time and energy than I really do

Sunday night I thought I'd have more than plenty of time to do this and that

but I feel like I am running around with my head cut off

let's be honest today I was so excited that I had time to cut my finger nails...

I love them short!

of course now I'm happy to be in bed,

in my comfy pants that I have practically had on everyday since we bought them

writing this post

I wouldn't have it any other way

I love to be busy

I almost thrive off of it

however I am currently thriving off of my week last week when I stuck at home sick

lucky for me I was just sick enough I couldn't leave my house

just sick enough I couldn't clean, cook, etc

but not bed ridden

and enough energy to twist yarn around frames and wreaths

and enough energy to paint letters on burlap

here's what I did

one of my new years resolution was to be more resourceful

at the office they had a tree from the festival tree up all Christmas season

when they were taking it down no one wanted the tree skirt

it was just a piece of red burlap

I didn't want to see it get thrown away so I brought it home

I still have so much more, maybe I'll make a pillow or something

I'm really pleased to have a little Valentine's decor
