Today I’m taking my inspiration from Elisabeth at Dirigible Plum. Her “currently” post is right at the top of ideas I’d like to try writing:
watching: Honestly? Not a lot. The only times I ever really watch stuff is when my husband has the TV going. And maybe I’ll watch the odd Josh Johnson or Hot Ones videos on my laptop.
reading: I’ve got a coupla things cooking here. I’m into my father-in-law’s copy of Minority Report by H.L. Mencken, with The Matchmaker’s Gift by by Lynda Cohen Loigman thrown in to keep things on the lighter side.
listening: I’m a podcast junkie, so I’ve got Judge John Hodgman, the Meyers Brothers, The Moth, and Stuff You Missed in History in my queue. I’ve also got David McCullough’s audiobook John Adams (OK, I’ll admit it’s there to help me fall asleep) and several playlists on Spotify depending on mood (one current favorite: Jesse Welles).
making: excuses for not exercising more.
feeling: a whole jumble of things: apprehension about the world in general, joy and relief that my sons are on an okay path, anxiety over a mounting to-do list, and wonder at the sheer amazingness of my students.
planning: Spring Break, if we can swing it. That, and a workshop about meeting the needs of gifted kids planned for Friday. Eek!
loving: this beautiful sweet girl who likes to keep me company, who has also finally decided she no longer wants to paw at my keyboard, but who would be just fine about things if I closed my laptop and took a moment to commune.
On that note…
Soapbox: The Way I see Things 
I will need to try this type of post, also. And, thanks for some good listening ideas!
Lainie, this format is a great way to take a peek into someone’s life. I chuckled at your admission of listening to David McCullough’s book to help you fall asleep. And how can you say no to those puppy dog eyes? My dog likes to curl up next to me while I’m on my laptop. I swear he’s part cat and would rather sit on my keyboard if I’d let him.
Love this idea of “currently”–and the categories that are flexible enough to make work in a variety of ways! Putting it in my pocket to try one of these days.
