Current craving Our garden. I miss spending evenings in the dirt with Jimmy. Only four more months until we can plant again!

Current confession Jimmy and I are having a tough time keeping Malcolm off of our kitchen counters and table. We’ve even resorted to a spray bottle, but sometimes he just sits there and looks at us like “You think I’m afraid of that?” while we spray him.

Current drink Coffee.

Current need Nada. I am so very blessed.

Current indulgence Dreaming up house projects.

Current procrastination Doing laundry. Our washing machine is in our basement and I’m too lazy to walk down the steps and start the laundry. Maybe after I post this I’ll stop procrastinating?

Current blessing Prayer. It just feels so good to be able to talk to God and ask for wisdom. It’s something I never want to take for granted!

Bedroom Overhaul Wish List

As I mentioned earlier this month, I’ve been wanting to decorate and furnish our master bedroom. Right now, it’s super bare. Like a bed, one nightstand, and one makeshift nightstand bare. Eek!

I am ready to make it our own since we’ve been living in our home for almost three years! Jimmy and I both agreed that we want our bedroom to be a calming space. With that in mind, here’s my wish list.

Headboard // Comforter // Sheets // Bench

Throw // Painting // Candle // Pillow
bedroom-collage-3
Basket // Nightstand // Mirror // Paintings

Making this wish list was so much fun. It was like going on a shopping spree without actually spending any money 😉

If you could decorate/renovate/furnish any room where you live, which would it be and what would you do?
