Read. Since it’s Saturday I’ve had pockets of time, in the morning, in the afternoon, and after dinner. I’m currently reading Names by Florence Knapp. A heartbreaking book but I’m flying through it.
Yoga. In the morning the kids were at gymnastics so I’ve had some uninterrupted time. I did yoga and some weights.
Tea. I drink tea throughout the day, and, in spite of having caffeine, it’s good for my soul. Warm and comforting.
A call to my parents. WhatsApp no longer works for calls/videos so I have to use a good old phone card to make calls to Russia. Mom and I talked for about 30 minutes.
Nature. The kids and I made our annual field trip to Bath and Body Works where we purchased some seasonal candles. Then we went hiking in the Great Swamp which is not too far from the candle store. It was cold but we enjoyed it. Hard to believe but the trees at the reserve were almost all bare.
Do you have any glimmers to share from today?
This month I am participating in #NaBloPoMo2025. A running list of participants can be found on San’s NaBloPoMo page as well as more information about this lovely initiative on this NaBloPoMo page.
