Sunday Currently {26}




Reading: Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. This book and story has a special place in my heart because there is a wonderful memory behind it. The book was a Christmas gift from my Mom in memory of our trip to the theatre together this past summer. I gave her play tickets to Pride and Prejudice for her and I to go to dinner and the play! It was such a fun evening together and a wonderful memory I will cherish forever!

Writing: Some thank you notes and this long post. 

Listening: It's the last day of Christmas so I am listening to Christmas music of course and the howling wind! I don't think I could ever get sick of Christmas music especially The Nutcracker:)

Thinking: What a wonderful world it would be if my friends didn't live so far away! And family for that matter! I am getting sick of traveling over an hour all of the time. I know it could be worse, much worse but I want them to all be closer!

Smelling: The Holiday Forest candle that I have burning! I love the smell of a Christmas tree, since I can't have a real Christmas tree I substituted the candle:)

Wishing: That I had a boyfriend so people would stop trying to set me up! That way I could have the easy answer of "oh sorry I have a boyfriend.." HAHA

Hoping: For a blizzard this winter. I want piles of snow! I want to be snowed in!

Wearing: The sweater that my sister hand knit for me, and leggings. She is an amazing knitter! It looks store bought she is so good! But it's WAY better than store bought because she made it for me, and it can't be bought! I LOVE it!

Loving: This relaxing Sunday afternoon under my wool blanket from Ireland! Figure skating is on in a little bit too:) It's national figure skating month and it's the week of US Nationals! I am so excited to watch this weekend to see who will be going to the Olympics!

Wanting: Like I said lots of SNOW!

Needing: To be more like Pope Frances! And put this list of new years resolutions into action! He is such a beautiful example of what it means to live out our Faith and to how to serve one another!

Rejoicing: In the beautiful wedding I attended yesterday! Such a beautiful couple, I am so happy for them!

Feeling: Blessed to have gotten to see Maggie yesterday even if it was only a few hours!  

Clicking: US Figure Skating and Ice Network to keep up on all the ice skating!

Linked up with Lauren!

  1. Your week sounds great - you've inspired me to reread Pride and Prejudice. I seriously haven't looked at it since 8th grade! I also think this new Pope is pretty awesome :D

  2. That copy of Pride and Prejudice is beautiful! As is everything else in the picture. I love snow, too. :) Right now we just have extreme cold. (Well, there's lots of snow outside, but none falling.) Happy Sunday!
