Magic I Saw this Week: This wee was magic of seeing David and his friends celebrate his birthday. The magic of his STEM fair poster coming together and working side by side with him on his code. Magic of Nathaniel and doing math together. Magic of cuddling on the couch with Jake and watching Marvelous Ms. Meisel together. Magic of working from home especially when it rains. Magic of reading and flowers and yoga, always.
Magic I Made this Week: I worked from home on Wednesday this week when it was pouring rain and it was so much more calming. I also tried to come home early every day and was able to pull it off all days except one. I spent a lot of time helping David with his STEM project. A lot of time prepping for his birthday party. I booked our vacation. I did some art and some journaling and some yoga and a lot of reading.
Magic of Me that I explored Week: I talked to my manager a bit this week so that was good. I also tried to come up with a plan to shift my perspective.
