Weekend Reading 11.07.20
Happy Saturday! …Anything exciting happen this week?! Ha! What a rollercoaster. I laughed, I cried, I stress-ate snacks. I spent WAY to much time glued to my phone. Who knew the year’s best thriller would be the election? Well, a lot of people, but still. Whew! I’m afraid to look at my screen time from the past few days. So this weekend, I’m trying to relax a bit. We’re getting a sort of “second summer” - or third- with temps in the 60s and even 70s, so I’m planning on getting out for a long run and maybe a hike or trail run. I need some fresh air! I’m also planning on cleaning out my closet a bit (so stay tuned to my Poshmark closet because I already have a lot to list) because I need to make some space- not just in my closet but in my brain. I’ve been feeling super uninspired lately and need to clear some cobwebs. Sometimes the answer is less not more. Anyway, I hope you can find a way to relax and disconnect a bit this weekend, things are looking up and we have that to be thankful for. xo
