Happy December!
I know we are already a week into the month, but this morning as I was driving to purchase a new 2020 planner, I began thinking about my beginning blogging phase in 2014. One of the things that I would do to connect with my audience and grow my blog was write a series of Smash Blog posts.
Of all of them, my favorite posts to write were called, “What I’m Doing Now”. So, today as I drove I decided that I wanted to start back writing those posts. I want to connect more with my audience, as it is growing. Super exciting!
So, what are we waiting for? Let’s jump right in!
Wearing
Earlier this morning, I knew I was getting out to run errands, so I really wanted to be comfortable, and just a teeny bit stylish. Nothing major. So, I opted for skinny jeans, taupe colored, knee high boots, and my favorite Buddhism hoodie (above). I love it and get so many compliments on it, even though it is so worn out.
The following message is on the front of the hoodie…
Life is ironic. It takes sadness to know what happiness is, noise to appreciate silence, and absence to value presence.

Weather
Although, we are in December, this morning this weather has been beautiful. The sun has been shining all morning and early afternoon. There’s a nice breeze and not too cold. I love it!
Needing
I actually love this category. It gives me a chance to think about my needs versus wants. What I need right now is a mini outdoor shed to store some random things for the winter, such as the boys bikes, the lawn mower, and the roll of bamboo that I had been using as patio fencing.
All last month, I searched Walmart and WayFair looking for a portable and easy to assemble shed. Although, I haven’t decided on one just yet, I am thinking something like these mini fabric buildings.
Listening
Last night, I listened to Adele on my record player. But, right now I am listening to Spotify. Yesterday, I received a pop up of my “most favorite played songs” during the year of 2019. I have to say that it’s been pretty interesting listening to my life over the past year in songs.
Mood
Relaxed, but excited about going to the Christmas symphony tonight. The plan is wear the holiday dress I ordered from Shein back in September. I finally wore the dress to the Festival of Dress two weeks ago. You can check it out on my Instagram.
Thinking
A few days ago, the company that I have stock through sent a letter that I need to complete because something isn’t matching up. Grrr. I’m sure it’s a pretty simple fix. It looks as if I simply to fill out a form to correct whatever the issue is.
But, in the meantime, it has me thinking about diversifying my portfolio more. I’ve heard so much about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency, both good and bad. So, I’ve been digging deeper to find out if it’s something that I should move forward with. One of the companies that I’ve been researching is VirgoCX. They allow you to buy, sell, and trade Bitcoin. It reminds me of a previous company that I worked with for stocks. So, I don’t know. We’ll see.
Wanting
I’m sure that I can think of a lot of things. But, right now, what I am wanting most is to move into our own home. I’m finally tired of being a renter. I’m ready to just be settled somewhere. Who can relate?
So, what’s going on with you today?
