I always have so many things I want to do when I come home...but never seem to have enough time to fit it all in. I try to squeeze as much life into those 5 precious hours at home as i possibly can. I read, write, paint, run, enjoy being lazy, cook, garden, spend time with friends.
Why can't all of those be my job?

I have been loving life!
This morning I woke up and ran over to Starbucks before work.
Went to work at our BEAUTIFUL new building.
Enjoyed the GORGEOUS day
Came home went for a run, gardened and met up with my family for a yummy dinner.
Last weekend was wonderful, it rained the whole time and usually that would put me in a slightly depressed mood but I just loved it. It allowed me to do the little things (or nothing!) and not feel guilty about it. Having the weekends off has been truly amazing and I finally am starting to feel refreshment in my life now that I am able to relax and not be so stressed.
Anyway...Saw some awesome home decor pictures on Tumblr and figured I would post them to keep my creative juices going for what to do around my house...

Any other good ideas? Like theses?

today is going to be a very very very good day.

It's sunny. warm. and I have the WHOLE day off. It can't get any better than this! If being busier than is humanly healthy has any benefits besides getting a degree and making money it's that I can thoroughly enjoy days like this. So far I've cleaned up, made some coffee and have been sitting in my favorite reading couch with a blanket on and the window open. I've actually had a chance to blog and catch up on all my guilty pleasures like pandora, tumblr and uploading pictures. Silly I know but it's so relaxing and exciting to me! I've found some really good music on pandora and I've found some inspirational photos on tumblr so I can hopefully start painting again now that I'll have more time to myself. Just wanted to write a quick note about how happy I am right now! I hope anyone who reads this (which is probably just morgan, I love you!) realizes how amazing each day is and finds time to do things that make them happy :)

Songs to listen to:
Santigold: Shove It
Lily Allen: Straight to Hell
Regina Spector: The Calculation
