- Summer tomatoes picked straight off the vine.
- Summer plums, especially when they’re soft, sweet and extra juicy.
- “The Supremes at Earl’s All-You-Can-Eat” movie on Hulu – excellent character development!
- Letting people be wrong while they’re driving because it’s not my job to teach them how to have good manners (side note, school’s back in session, so the traffic is crazy in the mornings again).
- Reminding myself that how this time last year I was so scared and uncertain about my health and the future, and I would’ve given anything to have what I have now — a healthy body, a steady work gig and people who I know will show up for me.
- Mildliner Markers. Seriously, the best! They make my day-to-day lists so colorful and fun.
- Walking Marnie in the evening just before the sun sets.
- Yummy things to eat: Trader Joe’s Miso Crunch Salad Kit, TJ’s Tortilla Española and Jif Crunchy Peanut Butter.
- The sound of my neighborhood early in the morning and at dusk.
- Taking it easy on myself with writing and not forcing myself to do it when I feel overwhelmed with the other things in my life.
- Walking Connor to school and leaving early so she has time to play on her swing and look for ladybugs.
- Practicing cursive writing. Has yours gotten a little sloppy because you’re in front of the computer all the time? Mine certainly has!
- Seeing all the students back on campus (I work at a college) and feeling the back to school energy.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
P.S. How have you been? I hope you had a wonderful week! 🙂
