Sunday Somethings- March 2025

Sunday Somethings- March 2025

Hello, Sunday.

Hello, March.

A little late, but please forgive my tardiness in ringing in March. I was in a little Disney bubble of joy last weekend and well, it was just what the doctor ordered.  Sunshine and chlorine and carnival style nuts and sickeningly sweet music- I was there for all of it. It was my #JoyintheTimeofFascism for six days, and I’ve been trying to carry the good vibes with me all week since I’ve been home.

And as great as escapism is, reality does creep in slowly but surely, so I’m happily using this weekend to settle back into home life before heading out west for work in a few weeks. Until then, embracing the sunshine and unseasonably warm weather this upcoming week to keep the good vibes rolling, at least in my little bubble, as much as I can.

As for March, let’s see what’s in store.

wishing; for an extra hour of sleep?

hoping: the ides bring us a turn for the better.

praying: crawley’s latest bout of pancreatitis passes quickly- this is a doozy. poor kitty.

planning: nothing. it’s unsettling.

dreaming: of peace

wearing: dare i say, a light jacket.

watching: tennis tennis!

reading: once upon a broken heart.

eating: sunbasket delivery.  a girl needs a little help once in a while.

searching: for joy.
