Here are five things I’m noticing, celebrating, and delighting in this week. What’s exciting you lately?!

01. Community. We started this TV series a few weeks ago, and it’s been a breath of fresh air. It’s not on the same level as The Office, but we laugh enough to make it worth it. And sometimes you need that, you know?

02. Sunshine Breaks. My new favorite rhythm at work has been stepping outside mid-morning and mid-afternoon. I walk around our building twice, and there’s something blissful about seeking out the sun and feeling it soak into my skin.

03. MOON MUSIC by Coldplay. I’ve been waiting for this one! Coldplay’s latest album released last week, and I’ve listened to it from the top down every day. It’s different than I expected—it’s very cinematic—but its beautiful. 

04.  “Don’t Give Up On Yourself!” I wrote this message on a sticky note and placed it by my computer this week. It’s been surprisingly empowering as I find my groove and transition into my new job. 

05. This quote stopped me dead in my tracks this week. “Writers who are writing are more cheerful than blocked writers.” -Julia Cameron from her book Write for Life. So good. And speaking from personal experience, so true!
