What? We're Halfway Through 2018 Already?
Tuesday, June 19, 2018
Before I start this post, a question: Do you like the hero for this post?
I bet you do.
I know I do. Browsing through filtered home design photos + the Relax & Unwind Spotify playlist (hit play down below 👇) make my heart flutter.
The last time I felt like this was years ago, when I was still single and childless. I sort of missed the chill feelings, but I wouldn't trade my now.
Moving on from my strong feelings about nesting onto this mid-year post.
Baby is 6 months now and we're in the 6th month of the year.
I think my life is starting to accelerate faster, career and productivity-wise. Baby is starting to sleep longer and in a non-crazy pattern. He sleeps through the night.
And so do I. (When I'm supposed to work a bit when he's sleeping. But how can I if tiredness consume my entire body and we scored 6 free months of Netflix?)
So, I'm getting back to blogging my goals.
Blogging has historically propelled me to accomplish things. This explains why am opting to go back to the basic things that work. 😉
Copy-pasting my 31st goals here. I'm sorta proud that I get to cross out a few.

life insurance, HMO for mom, pay taxes) Transfer to a larger house (yeah, we'll semi-nest)Always document J's babyhood (which is so hard because I sorta hate cleaning up my memory and organizing pictures, but I will do this)- Learn how to drive (Working on this next, I got a student license again)
