Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision - Joel 3:14
Outside My Window - bright and warm-ish.My front yard is a reminder that dried leaves need to be blown and grass needs to be grown. There's a massive patch under our maple tree that refuses to yield to my green thumb (hahaha, I don't have one!) It's quite the eye sore and may need professional help.
I'm Wearing - an over-sized sweatshirt, blue moto leggings, and my trusty Birkenstock Mayari, alleviator of plantar fasciitis pain with a hint of being fashion-forward. It's mid-life "athleisure" at it's finest.
I'm Listening To - surprising quiet. There's usually a cacophony of sound from children and toys and housekeeping tools. I will enjoy this moment while it lasts.
I'm Reading - nothing new. Digging into my Lent life pondering things, writing notes, soaking in mercy, anticipating hope, and napping in between.
I'm Looking Forward To - Spring Break! Despite the PTSD from a year of prolonged Spring Break, I'm welcoming this upcoming week. No major plans as we are still travel-limited but there's enough around here to explore and discover. Ohio is always an adventure and I'm thankful to live in such a scenic state with all its natural beauties.
I'm Pondering - the weight of decisions, especially the seemingly insignificant ones. The older I get, the more I feel entitled to a relief from small decisions. It's not healthy to feel entitled about certain things but all the same, some small decisions are tiresome and it might be my path to heaven. I feel aggrieved (and yes, selfish somehow) with these little things. What to do with leftovers, who's going to clean what, what load of laundry to wash, who's going to fold, red or white, and countless other mindless things that my feeble soul trips over. I think I'm decision-fatigued, is all. Every waking moment of our days are decision-laced and some of them, even the smallest once, can seem like a boulder when it's really just a grain of sand. Pray for me.
I'm Praying - for those who suffer from post-covid effects. Also the St. Joseph Novena starts today. I look forward to that feast day every year.
What's Cooking - pot roast. I need to grocery shop!
Mom Treat - the weekend! Hopefully I don't have to make decisions then hahaha. Oh, and the new Spring Collection line from my beloved home business. There's no official public release date but my stylist-exclusive preview bundle is supposed to arrive on Friday. I already have favorites.
