hello monday : sept 28

That supermoon, though. (image via Unsplash)

We walked down to the river last night & said hello to the supermoon last night – such a spectacular sight! We said "Wow" over & over again – reminding me of Anne Lamott's Three Essential Prayers. As we welcome the new moon, it feels like a few hellos are in order…

hello fall…which apparently arrived while I was in Los Angeles last week. The 35 degree difference in temperature chilled me to the bone.

hello fall capsule wardrobe…I've spent more on this season's capsule wardrobe because I had to replace practically everything from last fall (true story – last year, I was wearing sizes 8-10 / this year, I'm wearing sizes 2-4). 

hello magic...Big Magic, of course. Loving Elizabeth Gilbert's wisdom. 

hello travel…Los Angeles last week, British Columbia this week. Loved seeing Aunt Betty last week, and super excited to see Austin at the end of the week! 

hello morning rituals…Dan & I have shifted our morning routines a bit. Coffee. He writes, I read. Then we meditate. No screens (except for the meditation timer) until I leave the house. 

hello tattoo research…craving ink on my shoulder. Loving this.

hello conversations…with gratitude to Brene Brown for the shared language. "The story that I'm making up is…"

hello believing…that all things are possible. that lattes are comfort food. that this life is temporary. that we all have the power to change. that this supermoon is just the beginning.

what are you saying hello to this week?

hello monday is a lisa leonard-inspired practice.
