Currently........

Firstly big thanks to Pinky! for the inspiration for this post! I had no idea what to write about today and saw her "currently" post so figured I would do one of the same - check out her post here


Reading - I've just finished Travelling to Infinity: My Life with Stephen by Jane Hawking. I downloaded it to my Kindle after seeing the wonderful British film The Theory of Everything. Both Felcity and Eddie deserve Oscars for their performances they were great!  I'm now starting on Committed: A Sceptic Makes Peace with Marriage by Elizabeth Gilbert, because I loved Eat Pray Love and lets face it I can be a bit of a marriage sceptic. All a bit of a departure from my usual fiction but I'm enjoying them! 
  

Buying - A couple of David Bowie CD's for H - Nothing Has Changed and The Next Day. Also the ingredients for a Lemon poppy seed cake that I have been developing a recipe for.  


Hating - going running in the cold but feeling very proud that I am sticking with it!


Wanting - to be back in the cosy cottage in Norfolk with the roaring fire.... along weekend is never long enough! But very grateful that we have the opportunity to return in the summer!


Hoping - to continue to build on my running and that soon i'll be making 5k runs look like childs play (we can dream can't we)


Listening - BBC Radio Two at my desk at work. And pretty soon i'll be listening to some David Bowie methinks!


Watching - Spiral - a french police drama that I have recently become obsessed with, since I've started on season 5 I think I'm going to have to purchase the previous seasons on box set. Also Wolf Hall mainly because Damien Lewis and Mark Rylance are two of the finest British actors on TV at the moment and also because since I studied Tudor history at school it has been one of my favorite periods to learn more about. 


Devouring - after a weekend off (having a lovely break in Norfolk) I am now back to devouring vegetables and protein with very little carbs or dairy!


Drinking - All so water....so.much.water.


Loving - my Papermate Flair pens and Pentel sign pens - stationary porn and all that! And my new running trainers - thanks H!


Feeling - a little tired, content and better for having eaten better the last couple of days! Cheese is my love but not my friend!


Wishing - for a spiralizer! I feel like I need one in my life *HINT*



Linking up with the lovely Miriam for the "Lets Grow Together" series - Welcome to my blog!

  1. You are amazing! I really admire your determination to stick with running and a healthy lifestyle. So awesome!
    I've been into self-help books lately, even though I'm usually a fiction fan like you. It's a refreshing change!

  2. I'm a sucker for new pens and stationery too! And if you keep up with running, I guarantee 3 miles will feel like an easy walk in the park!
