A few things I’m loving this week…
Pure, unconditional kindness. Oftentimes it feels like it’s an endangered species but t’s everywhere if you’re open to it.
Indy being incredibly sweet while I adjust to this fasting lifestyle.
A clean office, even if it’s just for a day (or even a few hours…)
Seanan McGuire’s Wayward Children series, which was the series I needed to escape into for a while. THESE are how books should be written! You don’t need 400 pages for a good story, dude. When every word counts and it’s done well it’s much more enjoyable than any heavy doorstop. But now I have to wait until next year for the next book!
Reading The House with a Clock in Its Walls with Indy and Wood Sprite and Beastologist: Flight of the Phoenix with Wood Sprite.
Family game night! This week was Yahtzee and Wood Sprite wanted to keep Indy up past his bedtime (yep, it’s Dad who has a bedtime in our family!) to play longer.
Gizmo-Spock wedging herself into spaces, popping out of a drawer here, fitting into a bin there…
Screwdrivers.
My Feedly reader.
Helpful people at our credit union! It’s the only financial institution I can honestly say I’ve loved.
Wood Sprite’s imagination, even if it means every day our goals need re-adjustment!
Glue.
Fasting symptoms are pretty much gone! Whoop whoop! I’m still having some tiredness but I was low on electrolytes so I’m upping those (which isn’t pleasant with my apple cider vinegar, but I AM loving the results!).
Pumpkin mellowing out and enjoying the space better.
Mushrooms! All the mushrooms everywhere!
Guillermo del Toro is working on a Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark movie! I can’t even.
What are you loving this week?
