FIGS!
It’s time for Tuesday Topics, which I host with Jenn from Runs With Pugs. This week I’m going off-topic and joining Elisabeth in her FIG Collective. FIG= Finding Joy in Gratitude, and Elisabeth (and her trusty band of bloggers) are looking for FIGs throughout the month of February. I’ve got some!!! First of all- if anyone needs an infusion of joy, I’ll arrange to have a kitten sent to you ASAP! Sylvie is just the cutest thing, and we’re constantly laughing at her antics. Here I was, watching the livestream of my son’s concert with my little friend. Muffin is slowly but surely coming around. She and Sylvie don’t interact much, but they tolerate each other. Another FIG has been our weather. I know- I complained a bit about our “cold” spell, but we still have the best weather in the country right now. That is NOT true for most of the year, so during these couple months I make sure to appreciate it. The Super Bowl! We didn’t go all out this year like we sometimes do, but we still made nachos for the big game: … and we were rooting for the Seahawks! I still say the Super Bowl should be moved to Saturday (OR make Super Bowl Monday a holiday) because it’s hard to feel festive on a Sunday night. We did our best, but by the fourth quarter I was scooping the litterbox, putting laundry in the dryer, and getting dishes in the dishwasher. Once it was clear the Seahawks were going to win, I brushed my teeth and got into bed. That alarm goes off early on Monday morning! How about the Olympics? I love that there’s something to look forward to every night. On the Girl Next Door podcast, Kelsey said that she likes the winter Olympics more than summer because of the scenery. It’s true- the scenery for the summer games is a track, swimming pool, or gymnastics arena. It’s fun to see mountains and snow! One last thing, and it might seem silly to consider this a FIG… I love the green cups! The white cups look SO blah after Christmas, so I was delighted to see green cups at Starbucks today. Little things can bring joy, too! Next week’s topic: What habit(s) are you trying to strengthen right now?
