Happy Wednesday, friends! Welcome to the first Currently post of the year! Today we'll be talking about what we're currently loving, doing to stay warm, resolving, organizing, and wearing. It's late Tuesday night, so this will be short and sweet for that reason, but other than that, I'll jump right in!
Loving
I am on a reading kick! I am loving this one that I'm reading again; it's been a few years since I last read it, and it is the perfect season for this kind of book.
Doing to stay warm
I'm using extra blankets to stay warm!
'Tis the season for blankets! I use them all the time: when I'm downstairs early in the morning, and when I go to bed later at night. Chloe loves to be under one, or at least to have her nose tucked into one. My sister recently spent the night with me; Chloe was curled up next to her on top of that blanket. We were cracking up because Chloe doesn't know the meaning of the words "personal space".
Resolving
I'm not one for new year's resolutions, but there are a few things I'm resolving to do this year: to forge ahead without fear, to eat healthier, to work hard in every area of my life, to learn to be more independent, and to do (and learn) new things.
Organizing
I'm organizing drawers, cabinets, and closets!
Wearing
I'm wearing fleece pullovers, sweaters, pink lipstick, and jewelry that was given to me for my birthday and Christmas! My current favorite are the rhinestone studded heart earrings one of my best friends gave me for my birthday. You all know how much I love hearts!
Thanks for linking up with me today; if you saw my post yesterday and prayed, thank you for that as well! Things didn't go as I'd hoped, but I have perfect peace that God will never leave me or forsake me, and that He will provide for me everything I need. He's never let me down and He's not about to start now! I'm off to read your posts now, and hope you do the same. Happy reading and love to all!

I hope Chloe doesn't have fleas, they are notoriously hard to get out of blankets, pillows and sheets. We never let pets around bedding, fleas, tiny ants, mites that like to hitch rides in pet hair can be a nightmare.
ReplyDeleteShe doesn't. Our dogs are all treated to prevent fleas, ticks, and heartworms; they're also seen regularly by their vets.
DeleteI'm sorry to hear that things didn't go as you hoped yesterday. I know that God will continue to carry you during this season and send people to support you.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, it is definitely the season for blankets as I'm wrapped up in one right now while reading blog posts!
Thank you! I am counting on Him to carry me through and I know He will. Yes! I have one over me again now as I do the same.
DeleteSo sorry to hear that things didn't go as planned but I know this will be an amazing and transformative year for you- the start of beautiful things XO
ReplyDeleteThank you, friend. I am counting on that, even if it means it'll all be more drawn out now. I know God is in control, and I trust Him. ❤️
DeleteI'm organizing, too! So sorry things did not as you hoped for yesterday. I will continue to pray for you!
ReplyDeleteGreat minds think alike! I hope to continue doing that. Thank you, friend!
DeleteKeep forging ahead! I think Chloe would call it "Chloe space" instead of personal space, ha!
ReplyDeleteAh shoot regarding yesterday! Maybe it will make sense later why that didn't work out your way but is working out God's way?
ReplyDeleteThis was a perfect Currently for me being stuck inside!
A dog to cuddle will keep you warm!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday and new year. I love your glasses and lipstick. Our dog loves cuddling in a blanket too while I'm watching TV at night. Thanks for hosting this fun link-up.
ReplyDeleteIt really is the season for blankets! I am under mine now and for organising too, I have been on a big decluttering mission this week.
ReplyDeleteSorry things didn't go as you hoped yesterday. Thinking of you.
So sorry to hear that things didn't go as hoped for, what were you hoping to get out of it? I just found your blog and trying to catch up.
ReplyDeleteThere's fewer things sweeter than a pup curled up in a blanket :) Happy New Year, Jenn!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry things didn't go as you hoped and will continue to pray for you in this new year. Does your dog go round and round and muss up the blanket until it's just so? Ours can spend ten minutes organizing his blanket lol. Hope today has some unexpected bright spot for you!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry things didn't go as you had hoped they would yesterday! But once again I think you have the complete right attitude about it. This is the perfect season for warm, fuzzy throw blankets!
ReplyDeleteWill keep praying for a resolution that brings you peace. That pink lipstick is so fresh and pretty for the new year!
ReplyDeleteAdd Mollie to list of pups who don't understand personal space! I'm sorry things didn't go well yesterday. I will continue to pray for God's plan in your life.
ReplyDeleteSnuggly pups do help keep us warm...and keep our hearts happy! Thanks for keeping the link-up going for 2025. I look forward to reading all the posts from those join in the fun! Happy Wednesday to you -
ReplyDeleteHello, I'm visiting you today for the first time from Trading Ashes for Beauty blog. After reading your post for today, I of course went to your post from yesterday to see what people were praying about. Even though this is the next day and therefore what happened yesterday is history, I still prayed your list of requests. I continue to ask the Lord to give you all the grace you need to deal with [whatever]. We all have [whatevers] of some kind, so your prayer requests apply to all of us. They were good. Peace, my sister in Christ. Oh by the way, Proverbs 3:5-6 is on my late husband's grave headstone. It was his favorite verse for many years and now it's like his lasting legacy to me since his death (4 years ago). His death was sort of sudden and really knocked the props out from under me, even though he and I have been strong Christ-followers most of our lives. But with that said, the Lord has taken amazing care of me and He will do the same for you in your circumstances.
ReplyDeleteI love all the blankets too. I'm in the middle of washing them all today, so they will be so fresh for bed and also for TV watching time tonight.
