I'm titling this week "JJ and the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad mood". It's bad, truly. I'm weepy, angry, grumpy, irritable, and so on.
Because of this, I have borrowed the inspiration for this post from Loribeth at The Road Less Travelled.
Current Book(s) -- I have to do a presentation on Sunday for a group I volunteer with, so I am currently brushing up on "Strengths Based Leadership". Otherwise, I just finished "My Name is Mary Sutter" for my book club at work. I generally don't get into historical fiction, but this one was really good.
Current Playlist -- I listen a lot to just the radio in the car. Right now I really like "Somebody that I Used to Know". I know it's a pretty negative/depressing song, but I find it really catchy. I especially like this version. Another song I've loved for a long time is "Blessings".
Current Shame-Inducing Guilty Pleasure -- Trashy magazines. I bought several about the Katie/Tom fiasco. (I can't believe I just admitted that!)
Current Color -- For house stuff I'm really liking the yellow and gray combo. Otherwise, purple is my general standby for everything else.
Current Drink -- Huberts Mango Lemonade. Trying to give up soda (again), and trying to push more water. Wish me luck.
Current Food -- Trader Joe's Caribbean Flo Joes (popsicles). Lots of real fruit chunks in a yummy popsicle. I seriously buy 4 or 5 boxes every time I go to TJs.
Current Favorite Show -- What Not to Wear
Current Wishlist -- Pregnancy with a take home baby
Current Needs -- to spend time with my brother (he lives many states away and it has now been two years since I have seen him). Unfortunately plane tickets are running around $700.
Current Triumphs -- Last week I got to catch up with 4 friends I hadn't seen in over a year (not all together). Sadly, just getting out of bed this week seems to be a pretty big triumph.
Current Bane of my Existence -- Current bad/negative mood -- much of this comes from my upcoming birthday, which means another year is passing without a pregnancy or baby. Also the frustration of not knowing what our next steps are/aren't.
Current Celebrity Crush -- Seriously can't think of one.
Current Indulgence -- Way too much time on Pinterest!
Current #1 Blessing -- Amazing family. Having a 2 year-old goddaughter who asks for me everyday.
Current Slang or Saying -- "What do you do?" (not as in what do you do for a career, but as in, in this situation, what else is there to do?"
Current Outfit -- Rocking the business casual at work, and shorts and tees at home. It's just too darn hot to try to be too cute.
Current Excitement -- My niece is home from overseas where she is a teacher.
Current Mood -- See above.
...my life as a wife, daughter, sister, friend...and hopefully (someday soon) a mom.

(Hugs) Bless your heart, one of those days/weeks huh? I love indulging in those trashy magazines, lol. I also liked reading about the whole Rob/Kristen breakup, lol. Awful huh? Music helps, as does reading on days that are harder than others. I hope things start to get better, and easier soon. Know I'm thinking of you and wishing you the best as always=)
