Week five of quarantine - in the books. What have I learned so far? I do not do well not being busy...let me rephrase that, I do not do well not having something to work on that contributes to the betterment of something else. I like projects or work that are adding value or making progress and the lack of that is frustrating. I've also re-decorated my whole house (in my head) and have everything from carpet to paint to hardware picked out. #callmeaninteriordesigner I need a consistent job before any of that can happen - so here's to hoping something will pan out!

Anyways, here are five things I'm currently loving:

1. ACTA Wear | I recently ordered a workout outfit from ACTA - I wore it this week for a run and HIIT workout after and I love it. I ordered the seamless leggings and matching sports bra along with the white muscle tank (all on sale). A few of the most important things I look for in leggings:
- Must stay up while running/working out
- Not see through
- Tight, but not suffocating
- Prefer pockets
These leggings have 3/4 - that's a win in my book! One of my favorite things about the company is how they give back. Their belief is not to just be a good athlete but to be a good person in your everyday life so they support four charities that customers can choose upon checkout and a portion of the proceeds will go to that charity of choice.

2. Iced Coffee | Some can drink iced coffee year round, for me, it's more of a late spring-summer luxury. Kind of like soup is to fall and winter ha. My Nespresso will do a cup if lungo coffee but not enough for me to fill a pitcher with so I buy Starbucks, Medium Roast, Unsweetened at the store and add in Vanilla Almond Milk - so good!

3. IT Cosmetics Brow Power Universal Eyebrow Pencil | I have been an Anastasia Duo Brow Powder fan for years, while I still am I am finding that I do not love taking that long on my brows during quarantine and this brow pencil has significantly helped! I received a free gift with purchase on my last Ulta order, and this was included. It is supposedly a universal brow pencil so I'm curious if any of you have tried it?
4. Day Designer Planner | This has been so helpful in keeping me organized and on track throughout quarantine. Not a whole lot changed for me, I worked from home already, however, I found myself craving more structure so I really stick to my planner. I have tried so many different planners throughout my younger to adult years and this is by far one of my favorites. You can purchase at Target or on their website here.
5. AirPods | I have a slight feeling I will have worn out my AirPods by the end of this stay-at-home order. I use them everyday, sometimes all day. I have always used them to workout and now I love having music playing in the background all day. Yesterday I went through 10 years of the 60's best hits - I love having a variety of music!
