Things I Love Thursday
After a few days that were more hectic than they should have been due to illness, arguments, stress and worry, today was a much-needed, low-key treat. Wood Sprite and I read together, did some math, hung out with Indy before work, pickled some vegetables and just had a really nice day. And as boring as nice sounds, man, was it… nice! Next month we have something going on almost every single day, so this unwinding time is especially critical for us.
Other things I am loving this week are…
Nathan Hale’s Hazardous Tales
Brene Brown
Listening to old CDs with Wood Sprite
My zombie cup
Daily Burn–especially the 365 kickboxing days!
What are you loving this week?
Seattle Sports: Basketball
Tuesday Currents
If you are feeling tired, bummed out, under the weather or just bleh, as I have been feeling this week, here is a list of things you can try to help you feel better. Here are some more. Do them. Or not. I could use some sunshine; how about you? I don’t mind winter weather in, you know, WINTER. But sun and snow can work together sometimes!
Rocking to… Garth Brooks, In Pieces
Drinking… Coffee
Reading… The Gifts of Imperfection by Brene Brown
Writing… Seattle Sports Insider articles, chat tests, guest blogs, book promos, epic e-mails, short stories… Yeah, pretty much the same stuff!
Watching… Tomorrowland
Planning… House repair days around our spring semester classes and events
Making… Planner changes. Next year, I am using a daily, not a weekly.
Wanting… to feel sane. There have been so many tiny things going wrong, along with one bigger thing, that it feels like a huge conspiracy against me. Which is ridiculous. Right?
Monday’s Music
Here’s some seriously motivational music to get your Monday morning off to a great start! This month, I’ve been doing two workouts a day and eating low-carb, and I could really use an 80s power anthem like this one! 😉
Aside from my fitness stuff, this week we are going to a film class, selling cookies, going to the History Museum with Scouts, heading to a car show and lots of other fun things. Knowing this, I also know I need to stay on top of everything this week! What are you up to?
