The word that sums up this week is: intentionality; I tried really hard to intentionally “step into” this tough project, with prayer, rather than dwell on feeling trapped. A top moment for me was seeing turtles 🐢 at a lake during a family boating outing.
- 🧠 Understanding: Is my natural pessimism hindering me in facing stress 🤔?
- 🧶 Creating & cultivating: Built a bed from raw timber 💪 for my youngest (to fit in a teeny room).
- 📺 Consuming: Terry Pratchet’s ‘The Carpet People’.
- 🔆 Connecting: Book club resumes 📚! Also had an old uni friend and his family round for lunch.
- 🏹 One thing for future self: Keep reflecting on my intention to step into my work project, and not be of it.
- 💖 Something I’m looking forward to next week: A train 🚆 ride for work (love the quiet space).
Most used pen & ink combo: Pilot Vanishing Point, Sailor Potsu Potsu.
