What I'm reminiscing about...
When we went to the Blue Jays game last week, I was reminiscing about previous times we did the Jr. Jays base running.  The first time that we did it with E, he needed me to run the bases with him, which was fun for me since they don't usually let the parents run around.  Then Q and E got to do it together a few years ago.  

What I'm loving...
The episodes of Jam Session on the Ringer Dish podcast.  Amanda Dobbins and Juliet Litman just talk about current pop culture events, and since they are similar in age to me, so I tend to agree with a lot of what they are saying.  This week they of course were talking about Taylor Swift's new album; they thought it was mediocre, which is pretty much what I thought. They also mentioned Victoria Beckham's 50th birthday party which is also something I was very excited about this week.

What we've been up to...
Getting ready for baseball season.  Dave is the head coach for Q's team and I am now the manager for E's team.  

What I'm working on...
We are continuing to put our house back together after our major renovation.  We got some desk chairs, and Dave built some shelves in Q's room for Lego display.  We want to buy a sideboard for the dining room and we want to hang some pictures.

What I'm excited about...
Golf season.  I decided not to go join the ladies' league I played in last year but I'm still hoping to get out a few times.  E got some new golf clubs and he has already played a few rounds.  And we won't mention Dave who is currently golfing in Scotland! 

What I'm watching/reading...
Dave and I are watching The Gentlemen on Netflix.  All of us are watching Amazing Race, and of course playoff hockey. 

I am still slogging through the Outlive by Peter Attia. I know it's popular but I'm having a hard time reading it, it's a bit too textbook-y to me but I'll stick with it for now.

What I'm listening to...
Some recently listened to songs - You're So Vain by Carly Simon (eclipse reference), exile by Taylor Swift and Bon Iver (my favourite T. Swift song), Both Sides Now from the movie CODA, I Dreamed a Dream by Susan Boyle (I never tire of this one), Augusta the Masters Theme, Deep Depression by Lyriq Luchiano (Shazamed from someone playing it on the streetcar).

What I'm wearing...
Hopefully wearing shorts soon.  I have a couple of Zella shorts but I am looking at a few from Aritzia and lululemon. 

What I'm doing this weekend...
The only thing on the calendar is Q's ball hockey game on Saturday morning but it may be raining that day so we'll see if it happens or not.  

What I'm looking forward to next month...
Tball and Baseball starting up for the boys, Mother's Day, Victoria Day long weekend, our anniversary, and some golf.

What else is new...
I've been on a good streak of working out everyday in April.  I didn't really start out with a goal on this but after the first few days I realized it was something I could achieve.  Soon I'll be able to start riding my bike to work so I won't be able to keep the streak up for much longer, but I'm happy with what I've done for now. 

Linking up with Shay.
