these days

Katie

July 13, 2015

falling asleep at 7:30 every night and waking up at 5:30 every morning thanks to a massive case of jet lag

listening to Omi’s Cheerleader on repeat in anticipation of a reunion with my best beloveds this weekend

reading Order of the Phoenix and wanting to shake Sirius Black by the scruff of his canine neck

plugging away at revisions on book 3 and feeling so excited to share more about it here soon

smashing up our first floor bath in preparation for something a little more snazzy

taking care of a thousand unglamorous little tasks I put off until after the Philippines

planning the rest of the summer and making lots of space for naps and fireworks

settling back into a routine

feeling so hugely, enormously grateful

(hi, guys. i am so happy to be back in this space.)
