Happy 2017! I’m excited to be joining the first Currently linkup of 2017, hosted by Anne and Jessica. Here is a look at what I’m currently:
gathering: up all the Christmas presents and decorations. The tree is still up and decorated but all of the presents have been collected and put away in their new homes. Our plan is to take the tree down this upcoming weekend.
making: a vision board. This is the first time I’ve ever made one. It’s still a work in progress as I gather my pictures and words. But I’m having fun as I create my focus for the year.
sipping: as I’m currently typing this over New Year’s weekend I’ve been sipping lots of tea and gingerale. I’ve been battling the flu for over a week now. I’m grateful to have gotten through the Christmas holidays and to have been sick over the vacation and not during a regular week where I’m up at 6:15 AM and shuttling the kids from one activity to another. However, it’s been rough! I didn’t get a flu shot and it hit me hard.
following: This past week I started following The LV Guide and Sheaffer Told Me To, both new to me fashion blogs. I’ve never been big into fashion. However, I’m trying to up my game this year and be a little more aware of fashion trends and style.
resolving: I am still trying to figure out my one word for the year. Last year’s word was “happy.” I have a couple of words that I’m thinking about but have not decided on. Hopefully, I’ll have it figured out by the end of the week. Does anyone else choose a word for the year?
I chose the word “perseverance” for 2017. I think it fits a lot of things I want to accomplish, or work toward, this year. It’s the first time I’ve ever chosen a word for the year, but I loved the idea! I hope you decide on a good one this week!
Sorry you’ve been feeling sick. I got sick last week and while I’m MOSTLY better, it’s still quite annoying.

Oh bummer being sick – it’s nice not to have to miss work and routine, but it’s also a bummer to miss out on fully enjoying your vacation time! And I’ve been trying to figure out a word for the year too. I’ve never done it before – maybe because I have a hard time coming up with one all-encompassing word!
