Winter lists on a Monday morning.
Monday, January 19, 2015
We've had it easy so far this winter here in Las Vegas. There was a week of bone-chilling cold, and then things warmed up again. Christmas has gone, New Years is a memory, and January is in full effect.
This morning I'm thinking about the here and now.
things currently on the table.
laptop in need of charging
half-burnt candle
a discarded banana peel
things that haunt me.
disposing of my college journals.
all the stories I haven't written.
the self-depricating voices in the back of my head.
things I want to do but won't.
learn to surf.
go jeans shopping.
stop being envious of others.
the type of woman I want to be.
forgiving
ambitious
patient
what I'm working on.
myself
my marriage
writing. always writing.
things I've loved lately.
tiny beautiful things
red lipstick
ending every day reading
a new year
p.s. spring + summer lists.

I need to be better about reading at the end of the day. Hubs and I have been vegging out on Project Runway instead. haha. Happy January!
ReplyDeleteI think that if that makes you happy then why not end your days that way!
DeleteI adore your lists- it's such a great idea and they're always nice to read. I too need to stop being envious of others and be a more patient person. I love your blog! Have a great week.
ReplyDeletethank you, Mika. I read a great post recently by Laura Jane Williams of Superlatively Rude about comparison. You should check it out!
DeleteI am the same way, I can get envious of others too... A quote that I found on Pinterest really spoke to me it says,
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't matter what others are doing it matters what you are doing. Hope this helps!
As I mentioned to Mika above you should check out a recent post by Laura Jane Williams of Superlatively Rude.
DeleteLove this a lot, Rach.
ReplyDeleteYour "things that haunt me" list.
ReplyDeleteI thought I was the only one who had thrown away journals that I wish I hadn't.
Mine were the ones from the years before and after my mom died. Ugly and real. So embarrassing and raw that I drowned them in a sink filled with water and then directly into the trash.
And there are many more things on your list that I would write on mine if I had enough courage.
Thank you for sharing yourself in so many ways, Rachel.
