I’m currently…
finishing a lovely weekend off with Indy, which is so rare, and adjusting has not been fun. I forget how much we have to cram into the few hours we have that overlap together. Soon he’ll be back on the night shift!
chores, paperwork, planning
lots of random small things and some larger ones
being super cryptic
not sleeping great again. That was a quick reprieve!
listening to old playlists and playing guess-the-song games with Indy and Wood Sprite
daydreaming. Quite a bit. Lately, all I have to do is take a few deep breaths and it sends me into a yawny, dreamy state and I’m practically singing “Strawberry Fields Forever.” Too bad it doesn’t keep me asleep.
night dreaming. And nightmaring. Often.
listening to my body, meeting its needs, and finding that it makes me want to DO quite a bit less and just vibe
trying to remember tasks and appointments at the same time. How did I survive without phone alarms before?
attempting to meet the reading deadlines of several bookclubs, mixing them up, not getting them in time from the library, etc. Spelling library “libraly.” Thinking I really don’t have much to share and realizing it’s a lot more than I’d imagined in the first place.
getting the pups’ shots and scheduling grooming appointments
brushing Sally out and thinking of starting a felted creations business from the resulting fur. Kidding! It really would felt well, though… David Rose’s cat scarves, anyone?
drinking water out of something made of metal every chance I get. Seriously, why would we use anything but metal, especially in the thickness of summer, when it protects our ice cubes so proficiently?
Reading Galaxy: The Prettiest Star, Raising Critical Thinkers, and King of Battle and Blood. Also continuing Penryn and the End of Days and Ballad of Songbirds with Indy aloud.
listening to one of those YouTube relaxation videos and feeling floaty
wishing The Chipmunk Adventure were still available
watching John Wick 4 and Yellowjackets with Indy
What are you up to this week?
