Today I am linking up with fellow Modern Mrs. Darcy readers
to list what is saving my life this season. A lot is making my life feel out of
control and dark, so this is a good exercise in remembering to breathe and
enjoy the little things.
The sun is back! It’s been raining and grey here for a while
but the sun is back and it feels so good. I love walking my dog in the
afternoon and feel the sun on my back. I’m like a crocodile: I get my energy
from the sun!
Mint tea. It’s fresh and delicious! It’s become my middle of
the afternoon routine.
Podcasts. Especially these. I listen to them when I walk
from and to school alone or when I do mindless work (filing emails for
instance). I love learning new things and feel part of a like-minded tribe.
As an introvert I need some alone time to relax. It’s been
difficult lately because Jude tends to go to sleep late (9:45 PM or so). But
when he’s asleep early, a good glass of wine (Chardonnay is my favorite) and a
book are life savers. I’m reading this right now. Usually Joe watches one of
the shows he likes on TV and I relax on the couch with him.
Friends. They’re really making life better right now. Long-time
friends and new friends are helping me process, laugh, rant, and dream.
What about you? What’s saving your life right now?
I've been really inspired by some podcasts lately too!
