Obsessing over… 

Spring outfits and spring weather

Working on…

Getting a house. After all this time trying to get credit, and apply for a house loan, the husby has a great job and (almost) everything is in order so tomorrow(Friday) we're finally going out house hunting! I'm so excited, I feel like I've been waiting for this point forever and I can't wait for all of it to actually be over with.

Thinking about…

How funny it is that my kid is a cheese lover and prefers raw goat cheese over any other cheese. Not as cheep as the other stuff, but happy he goes for the good stuff at least! 

Anticipating…

Getting a house. I know it's kinda in the distance right now, but hoping it goes faster than I think it will. ...And helping a special someone with their wedding!!! So exciting!

Listening to…

Eating…

Wishing…

Time would slow down every once in a while. It's amazing how fast things creep up on me anymore.

There have been a lot of negative things said about the Kony movement. This is their official response from all the things said about them. I encourage you to read it. I do agree though that before you ever get involved in something, to do your research.

Passion.

The other day I read an article on having a passion. It really got me thinking. The article read how a friend's parents had just recently retired. She had asked her parents why they did the same things every day. They answered that they just didn't really know what they like to do anymore. They had spent so much time focusing on making money and working forty hours a week that they had forgotten what their passion was. She later asked a friend what his passion was and he had no answer. It freaked him out a little and made him contemplate. He listed everyday things that he liked(music, computers) but couldn't list anything that he was passionate about. After a long discussion he decided that he was going move to Austin to try and discover his passion.
I'm a person that can't name just one distinct passion. I don't have any over the top amazing talents or gifts that I also love doing. But the few of my passions are writing, fashion, vintage... I can't even go on (I feel like I'll dig a deep hole of lists for you). You might have heard about our little vintage shop endeavors. It's gonna be hard and scary, but if we actually get to that place where we love what we're doing I think I can be satisfied. I feel like I have to remind myself every day and look at why I'm doing what I'm doing. Not just doing things to get by, but to really live out your passion, love what you do, and concentrate on what you know you really love.
So now I want to ask you, what is your passion?

B&A

So, I thought that I had a better before picture of this shirt, but it turns out I deleted it on accident. Before, this shirt was huge, like XL and it had no shape whatsoever, but I loved the color and print. After a few times trying it on and going back to the sewing machine it turned out pretty good, I think! xo -Liz
