I've been meaning to do this "what I'm into" post since November.. So I am finally making myself do this!
Main Theme of January: PURGE!
We recently gave our bedroom a makeover (new bed frame and we painted) which caused us to SERIOUSLY purge.. We got rid of a TON of junk and clothes that we were saving for no reason.. which led us to reorganize our closet..which led us to reorganizing the "pink room" and our downstairs closets, which has produced a full functioning dinning room! its been great.. and hopefully the theme of Feb will be "DEEP CLEANING." but we shall see.
What I’m Reading:
Not a ton of time for reading these days but I am slowly working my way through these three books. I don't have much more to say because I have been reading all 3 of these books for the last 2-3 months.. they are all good, but I am obviously prioritizing other media venues (see below):

What I’m Watching:
It is almost unbelievable how much TV I am watching despite my ridiculously busy schedule. I have decided to embrace my relationship with TV, my dear toxic friend, who is probably making my life worse, but I just can't let go! But here are my top go-tos right now.
From A to Z
Parenthood (we will miss you!)
Brooklyn Nine-Nine
Downton Abby
I sadly just deleted 10 episodes of Project Runway All-Stars because.. I just can't right now.. (literally, not figuratively). And I am SUPER excited for The Walking Dead and Better Call Saul (shout out to Breaking Bad) to start up in Feb!
and my new fave indulgence is watching Friends on Netflix and possibly my new fave show
HART OF DIXIE!
What I’m Listening to:
I have mainly been listening to A LOT of podcasts........I mean A LOT.. I miss Serial so much.. :-)
Here are my go-tos:
-The Dave Ramsey Show ! (nerd alert, but i'm kind of addicted..and i need motivation to keep snowballing our car payment instead of buying shoes).
-Planet Money- short and sweet and makes me feel smart
-Good Job Brain- I only like listening to this on road trips because its interactive and fun to play w Meeker.. (its 1 hour of pub trivia goodness!)
-Here's the Thing with Alec Baldwin- Turns out Alec makes a pretty great podcast!
-Criminal (made from Triangle residents!)
-Death Sex Money
I'm excited about NPR's "invisibilia".. i have like 5 on there i need to check out!
Other Things I’m Into:
-my new Position at Value Options!!!
-my "girl group" im thread that i participate in with my co-workers who all work remote.
-my side gig at NC State
-finding a new church that is closer than 30 min away
-roommates. We have some friends living with us while they save money to pay for the husband's medschool.. they get cheap rent and we get extra cash for the month! win win! and we are all on completely different schedules which i think is working well for us! :-)
-Doggie Day Care!
That is ALL !
