Over the last couple of weeks I have been feeling the blogger block big time and in such times I think post series are often the best. This is why I am sharing the Sunday Currently August 2019 edition, it is a series I have not done for many moons now. The last time I shared a Sunday Currently post was way back in December 2017 when I shared a giveaway. Whilst this time round I do not have a giveaway, the Sunday Currently August 2019 edition is being shared to get me out of the blogger funk I am experiencing.
Whenever I sit down to write the Sunday Currently posts, I always think of the past as one of reflection. Often we forget about the little things in life that we enjoy every day but often don’t give a second thought. What I love about the Sunday Currently August 2019 edition is that it allows me to be more present. As a planner by nature, I often forget to be more present and even more so more thankful for what I already have.
With that being said, I want to focus more of the present and the Sunday Currently August edition affords me that moment.
Sunday Currently August 2019 Edition
Reading: I am currently in between books but having finished Kindred and Queen months ago, I am eager to finish An American Marriage and A Long Night in Paris. Both books are captivating and makes you want to read it all in one seating but I am savouring them for longer flights.
Writing: I have major writer’s block aka blogger block and I am little to no motivation to write posts. Other than this post I have 5 other posts in draft mode but no motivation to complete them.
Listening: At the moment I am listening to everything and nothing, the washing machine is going in the background and Westlife is belting out some of my favourite tunes. At the beginning of the
Thinking: About all the draft posts I have to get through, the deadlines at work that I need to meet as well as the blog post deadlines. There is so much I want to do and even thoughI have the time, I lack the mojo.
Smelling: The marinated pork I have in the fridge for my lunch and dinner tonight as well as the laundry detergent in seeping through the washing machine. In my head I want to also smell chocolate as I am craving it big time.
Wishing: I could get my act together, write the blog posts, catch up on my work projects, plan my itinerary for Geneva and book the flight to Seoul already.
Hoping: I can accomplish all the things I am currently wishing I should get done before the end of the month. The next two weeks will be absolutely chaotic to say the least but I am excited for them.
Wearing: Bathroom because it’s Sunday and I can not be asked to dress up, do my hair nor my makeup. Today is the day of rest, catching up on the laundry, hopefully a day I can get over my writers block.
Watching: Cartoons {Incredibles 2, Tangled, Anastasia, Mulan}, these are my fallback movies to watch especially when I am trying to work and not get distracted by what’s on TV.
Reading through the post I realise my motivation is not all gone, this is why I love series as they remind you of all you have to say. I am excited to share posts on my recent visit to Edinburgh and many more.

Maybe you need a break from the blog – I found I was putting too much pressure on myself to post daily but once I had a break I felt so much better!!
