With all that is going on globally...
I am seeking cheer in my daily round.
As hard as the news is to hear we need to be informed.
I don't consider myself a "news junkie."
Limiting the amount of negative news is something I consciously do.
Being sensitive, I need to be mindful of the amount I can process.
While at the garden centre I purchased 10 pots of tete a tete daffodils.
These wee plants will brighten up the border out front of the Humble Bungalow.
At the cashier there was a donation notice...
I added an amount to be sent to Ukraine.
These small acts of kindness
where we all participate
can help to make a difference.
Chester seems to be feeling better...
he's gained a few more ounces and is more energetic.
He loves a warm spot of sunshine to lie in and enjoys a nap on a lap.
I've got a very tall stack of books to be read.
Daisy Jones and The Six is my next book.
I've not been reading as much as I usually do...
walking and domestic chores and de-cluttering are keeping me busy!
Seen on my walk...
My new Columbia coat (which I shared on a recent post) is really warm and so cozy.
The pile lining in the hood helps keep my neck warm.
The silver mesh "Omni Tech" lining reflects the heat and keeps me from being cold.
Walking quietly in Nature helps to keep me calm and grounded...
there are small surprises that pop up on my radar when I walk.
A former co-worker who walked regularly
focusing on thoughts that "bubbled up"
called it "mindful meditation."
The "first" 5 pounds are lost...
now working on the next 5.
Little by little...one day at a time.
Hope that you are finding some peace and solace in everyday simple Joys.
