What's Up September

Happy Thursday, Y'all

Today, I'm joining Shay and Sheaffer for their What's Up Wednesday link-up. ...except it's actually Thursday. Oh well. Let's just go with it.

Every month we answer the same list of questions based on how things are currently going in our lives.

So let's get started...

What am I eating?

My mom and I visited a local pizza place the other day - Semmes House of Pizza. The ingredients were fresh and it was so good! And the pizza was huge so we had leftovers to bring home, as well, which is always a nice thing :)

What am I reminiscing about?

This picture popped up in my Facebook memories the other day. It was Rainy Season in Dakar and as usual, parts of the campus would flood regularly. But that didn't stop our creative students who came up with this clever solution to traverse the ankle deep (or higher) water to buy treats/lunch from the Cantina (snack shop) during lunchtime.

 What am I loving?

I loved this picture of the sky yesterday morning. I don't love the idea of leaving for work before the sun is up each morning. But I do love the pretty views of the sky. I must say, that part is, indeed, a nice perk.

What have I been up to?

On Tuesday nights, I'm taking an ASL class. It's a lot of info for my tired brain to take in. But at the same time, I'm really enjoying it.

What am I dreading?

Nothing blog worthy :)

What am I working on?

Work pretty much consumes my life and my brain at the moment.

 What am I excited about?

Thanksgiving is in 2 months. Does that count?

What am I watching?

The US losing its mind... Sometimes I miss living in a foreign country and being kind of removed from seeing the craziness happening in my own country. Yes, I'd stay informed. But at the same time, I could sometimes live in blissful ignorance. And that, I miss.

What am I reading?

I've been reading through the book of Lamentations this week. 

What am I listening to?

I haven't been listening to much music lately. I am going to a concert next month. It's one of the Candlelight Concerts that are being advertised all over social media. I'm looking forward to it.

What am I wearing?

I got this bracelet as a gift a few weeks ago. Such a sweet surprise!

 What am I doing this weekend?

Same as every other weekend... On Saturday, I'll go in and work from 9ish-3. Then, I'll go home and pick up my mom and go grocery shopping for the week ahead. And on Sunday, I'll go to church and then come home and do meal/snack prep for the week ahead. And if I can squeeze in a nap or some "for fun" reading at some point over the weekend, I always do that too :)

What am I looking forward to next month?

Nothing exciting happening that I know of :)

Favorite recent Amazon find?

I've purposefully stayed off of Amazon lately, in an effort to curb my spending and save up for Christmas fun :)

What's new this month?

Nothing much is new. I did have to find a doctor. I needed to get established with a primary doctor here in Mobile. That, of course, took longer than I thought it would. Most doctors weren't accepting new patients for the next few months. But thankfully, I found one - a good one too. Anywho - I now have a primary doctor and I got some routine lab work and stuff done while there too. Being a grown up isn't always fun. Just saying ;)

And that's what I'm up to this month.

What about you?

What are YOU up to this month?
