Hello, March

I can't remember exactly where we were in Ireland when I took this, but I want to go back.
We have moved on one more month into this new year (enter cheesy I can't believe it comment here). Really though, I can't believe it. My baby will be three months old soon. That in itself seems crazy. Anyway, here is a look into our life currently.

[wishing]

I could go back to Ireland. Actually, I think this has been a wish every March since I have gone. Not because I went in March (I went in January), but because March means St. Patrick's Day which means Ireland.

Whack for My Daddy-O, There's Whiskey in the Jar

In case you are starting this post with no clue what song I am referring to in the title, here you go.



Anyway, HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY! Drink a beer or something, and wear green to save yourself. I myself am going to have a Smithwick's and dream about being back in Ireland. Where I had my first Guinness, first taste of Jameson and got to see some pretty amazing places. Pictures of these things below. I tried to find my journal from this trip and do a whole throwback recap of it, but I couldn't find it. Another day then.

A Pinch of Green

I am not the biggest, deck me out in luck of the Irish kind of person. So when St. Patrick's Day rolls around you will likely see me in neutrals with just a hint of green (shoes, jewelry, scarf). Not because I don't like green, but just because I would rather not be another green all over person.

However, looking at my most recent keeps you would think that I only wear black, white, grey and tan/nude. It is starting to be a problem. That being said, here are my most recent lusts in the shoe and accessory department.


See, nude and tan everywhere. I did throw in  some really great color too. These Valentino "Rockstuds" are to die for! I am also obsessed with these floral Birkenstocks and the fringed high heels.

Currently | March

I have seen this link-up for the past two months and I am finally joining it, a day or so late.


Currently, I'm...

Dreaming | of being somewhere warm, where palm trees exist. Seriously, even 50 degrees would be good for me. 

Planning | my plan of attack for packing up our house. I am going to start blogging about the whole process and asking your suggestions so feel free to share your tips and tricks! We would be glad to have them.

Making | my friends' wedding invitations and loving it! With their blessings I will share, but I am loving them so far.

Baking | peanut butter cookies (as seen on my Instagram here). They were a bit crunchy but I am a lover of anything peanut butter so they worked!

Watching | House of Cards. I finally caught up to the current season so now I am sucked in like the rest of the obsessed Netflix watchers. Anyone else loving it like I am?

Feeling | a weight off my shoulders as we move forward in the buying/selling process. We are looking at our top houses this weekend and hopefully by Monday we have made some huge progress.

Appreciating | my family and their willingness to help us out throughout this buying/selling process. My mom and grandpa braved a lot of snow and ice to look at houses with me, and Nate's family has been amazing at helping us take care of Remi while we had people viewing our houses. We couldn't have made it this far without them. 

Needing | a new leather jacket for spring (mine has a hole or two in it) and holy jeans as mentioned here

And that is a snapshot of life currently. What are you up to?

Okay, so like I mentioned last month life threw us a huge curve-ball so I seriously got zero goals accomplished in February. That being said, I am going to move into March with the same goals (tweaked ever so slightly).

So let's start by looking back at what should have happened.

February's Goals...
Health & Fitness
Go to the gym three times a week and do yoga at least once a week.
Yup, yoga didn't happen and I think I averaged two trips to the gym a week...

Home
Come up with a cleaning schedule (daily, weekly and monthly tasks).
Instead of coming up with a schedule, we were just constantly cleaning since we never knew when our house would be visited by potential buyers. Honestly I am going to revisit this one when we find a new place.

Relationship
Plan "us" time around all of our work travel, including at least two dates.
This did not happen. We still haven't gone out for Valentine's day and any nights out were with friends (which is great), but this is priority number one from here on out.

Blog
Schedule out Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday Posts by Sunday, and schedule Fridays post by Thursday evening.
Well, I scheduled out my posts, but not always by Sunday. This is only a partial fail.

Other
I want to do a Valentine's Day craft and a baked treat so those will happen too.
FAIL. This is obviously one that will be tweaked. All things Valentine's day were put on hold since Nate was traveling and we began a crazy house search.

That was slightly depressing to go through. Life happens though and we are rolling with it. Here are my updated goals for this month!

March Goals

Health & Fitness
Go to the gym three times a week and do yoga at least once a week.

Home
Sell it, and buy a new one. More realistic - start going through things, organizing and packing. Purge what we don't need.

Relationship
Two dates! With him starting his new job, life is going to be kind of complicated and scheduling time for us is the most important.

Blog
Schedule out Monday-Thursday posts by Sunday. Schedule Friday by Thursday night and have a Saturday "Discover" post each Saturday!

Other
Do some sort of St. Patrick's Day post - drink, cookies, craft, outfit, something!

And there you have it, another round of goals to work toward for the next 29 days. Here is to being consistent and organized.
