Happy Saturday, friends. It feels like I, along with everyone else in my life, have been going *through* it lately. I haven’t known how to respond when people ask “How are you?” But I’ve found myself seeing beautiful things, too: things I wouldn’t normally notice when I’m harried and overworked and emotionally spent. An hour to read in a camp chair in a perfectly sunny spot. The mist rising off the lake (a sight I only saw because I woke early from a restless sleep and took a meandering drive to work). Being so ridiculous with my coworkers at our first dinner together since covid that we made our server laugh each time she came to the table. A field of dandelions out the passenger side window, a cup of coffee in my hand. My mom, tearing up listening to Party of One - “Who is this?!” When you put it like that, I guess it’s been a good week. via Instagram https://instagr.am/p/CO5hK7qLS42/
