Writing: Um, this blog post? Also tomorrow’s post on everyday sexism, and (hopefully) Friday’s post on Jesus Feminist. And getting ready to write SO MUCH about Colorado and Salt Lake City!
Anticipating: Our visit to Temple Square here in Salt Lake City. Our friends’ vow renewal and wedding reception. A charity croquet match with Kappa Kappa Gamma. And in one month, Harry and Celia’s wedding!!!!!
Missing: South Carolina. I was there in April for our wedding reception and in May for my mom’s surgery, but I won’t be there again this year. While I’m very content with my life in Ohio, it’s hard being so far away from my home state. I wish I could return for Furman’s Homecoming, especially since I haven’t been since 2011, and my bestie/former roommate Rachel and her husband Luke are hosting our mutual friends. But between traveling for Harry and Celia’s wedding in October, and Libbi’s bachelorette party in November, I just can’t justify another plane ticket and weekend away.
Wearing: During Lilly Pulitzer’s After Party Sale, I bought two new dresses and a belt. (A hot pink eyelet dress, a white eyelet dress, and a turquoise bow belt). Last Thursday, I didn’t actually have any special occasion to wear my new white eyelet dress, but it was so pretty that I just had to dress up! I paired my white eyelet dress with my new bow belt, gold wedges, and Eiffel Tower necklace.
Craving: Summer Shandy. Dan and I have purchased as much Summer Shandy as possible. It is the most delicious beer ever. Nectar of the gods. But grocery stores started selling Oktoberfest in the middle of August and started phasing out Summer Shandy. Luckily Dan and I found a single six-pack at the Target near my aunt’s house Saturday, so I have some here on our vacation. And my brother-in-law Pat found some in Michigan and bought me a whole case!!!! Add that to what Dan and I have found going to all the grocery stores and beer barns in Findlay, and I should have enough Summer Shandy to last me until Halloween.
Linking up with Anne and Jenna for Currently. What have you been up to lately?
