Ah, February, the month that just feels like the longest month of the whole year. But 2020 gets an even longer February since it’s a Leap Year. So are you going to celebrate Leap Day in a fun way or will you just give it a cool head nod and move on? I’m not really sure how I will do it or not. Or is this an acceptable time to watch the movie Leap Year on repeat??? (after all, Leap Day DOES fall on a Saturday so you could just hide at home all day if you wanted to)
Anyway, it’s February, let’s get on with the inspo!
What I’m Being Inspired By
Current Jam:
Nothing makes me smile more than a song with big horns, bouncy tunes, and laughable lyrics. And, Kesha kills it with her “Potato Song (Cuz I Want To).” Sometimes you just need a lazy, ridiculous anthem that doesn’t take anything too seriously.
“I’m over the drama
I’m moving to a distant island
Where I’ll sleep all day
If I want to”
Current Food:
Okay, so do you love Nutella? Well, I think this is EVEN better than Nutella. YES YOU HEARD ME RIGHT. This combination of cookie flavor with cocoa is just perfection. When I spread it across freshly-made waffles, I could swear that I’m eating a doughnut. And I don’t know about you, but doughnuts are just kind of the very best thing.
Current Read:
I’ve been doing CrossFit for over two years now, and it’s amazing to me that I’ve even been at this crazy sport that long. It’s gotten a bad rap for being tough with some crazy injuries, but it’s also an amazing community with powerhouse athletes. Yes, I totally watch CrossFit documentaries and YouTube videos…and yes, well, I’m so enjoying Dottir by Katrin Davidsdottir. I’m absolutely fascinated by the headspace required to be a champion and rise above failures.
Current Obsession:
A friend gifted this slim, lovely notebook to me while I was traveling Asia, and this beauty now is the home of tiny little fictional scenes. And every time I look at it, I want to just explore stories. It’s the best space. It makes me so happy. And it seems that for me to feel invited to creativity, I need beauty!
Current Quote:
Have you ever been in the place where you need to be strong enough to step away from something even as you don’t want to? It is so tough. Whether you need to say goodbye to a routine, job, person, place, coping mechanism, it takes such a weird strength because it doesn’t feel strong…it feels anything but strong. But you do it anyway. It’s fragile, scary. Real.
What’s Inspiring YOU?
So my dear loved ones, wherever you are in this fragile and volatile life, I hope you are constantly reaching for more–more growth, more wisdom, more kindness, more awareness.
May February offer you the space you need to dive into deeper questions about yourself while also surprising you with cathartic bouts of stomach-cramps induced by giggling bouts!
