Helllllllooooooo!
This week I just wanna keep it LIGHT.
I wanna keep it easy breezy beautiful cover girl.
But ALSO! QUICK SIDENOTE! I PUT OUT A SONG TODAY…well, a cover. But a cover of my actual legitimate FAVORITE song of all time. The song I scream cry sing to in the car when i’m having a bad day. You can listen (and pre-save the whole cover ep) HERE!!!! Okay. That’s all. I love you.
OKAY. BACK TO IT!
I feel like a cute part of life and existence is the fact that we get to go through it and find new things to love. New side quests that make us feel something.
And you never know when one is gonna pop up. That’s a little gift we get in this weird, crazy, hard wild world.
So here are some things that I’ve been enjoying. Things that have been making life a little more fun. Things that fill up the proverbial basket.
One. HEAR ME OUT HEAR ME OUT HEAR ME OUT. Tapioca pearls in Boba.
I’ve always loved Boba, but recently I’ve been getting it a lot. Like A LOT a lot. Maybe too much. But WHO CARES? WHO’S COUNTING?! YOOOLOOOO.
HEAR ME OUT, STAY WITH ME.
The first couple times I drank boba, I didn’t do the pearls…but now I’m a pearl believer.
I’m a pearl stan.
I’m literally sipping a boba as I write this.
This is a dedication to the pearls of boba. I love you, you make boba better. Thank you for being here.
Two. Accidentally giving myself space and room to breathe… specifically when it comes to work.
Normally, if I wanna have a ME moment… if I want to not work for a bit, I’ll have to consciously make that decision and kind of force myself to take a break.
But for the past couple weeks it has just kinda happened naturally. And the best part about this is that I have NOT FELT GUILTY!
That is such like a big win for me, because every time I’m not working, you can also catch me feeling BIG BIG GUILT that I’m not working.
There’s always this thought demon that comes in and says “You’re gonna fall behind, you’re gonna waste your potential, other people are gonna get ahead of you! What are you doing? What are you doing? Get back on your computer! Keep working blah blah blah blah!”
This little break has just felt natural… and I haven’t had that little thought demon pestering me and making me feel bad. I’ve just been like “oh OK cool, so my body needed this…and i’m gonna listen to my body!”
I’m trying to soak this feeling up because she is rare, but I’m happy she’s here. Yes this feeling is a she.
Three. Something I’m vibing on HEAVY this week is birds. I’m digging on birds this week.
I went to wild birds unlimited yesterday, and I talked to the sweetest lady who worked there. She got me the SICKEST bird feeder, and she hooked me up with the SICKEST bird food, and I’ve just been noticing them….THE BIRDS.
(Shoutout to my homie Kana, who’s been on the bird game for a while, I know you’ll appreciate this. I’m starting to see what you see!!!!!)
It’s not a phase I’ve had before in my life. I know people live for birds, and I’m starting to get it.
When you really take a second, or a week, or a month to notice them… when you get a birdfeeder and they start coming to your yard looking all beautiful, you realize they really are the most majestic, funny, wild creatures. And they’re all around everywhere, every day, anywhere you go!
YOU CAN JUST LOOK UP AND SEE ONE!
All that to say…I was sleeping on the bird game. New love for birds unlocked this week. I hope this continuous because it feels good. It feels right.
I’m team bird.
AND THAT’S ALL I GOT.
What things fill up your basket?
That’s my Q for you. That’s my Q of the week:
What has filled up your basket this week?
I love the little mental image of everyone just walking around with a cute wicker basket full of all the things they love.
That’s a tender image to meeeeeee.
OKAY.
I LOVE YOU.
I hope you have the best day and the best week.
AND I love you.
And I LOVE you.
And I love YOU.
Byyyye!
