I made a little calendar wallpaper for February (a little late, I know) that I thought I’d share featuring Gabe the alpaca from Evans Knob Farm.
Getting over some dislikes
Being Happy
I’ve been going through a lot of emotional stuff this year. I can honestly say it’s been the hardest, most taxing year that I’ve ever had. I know there may be more to come (seeing as how I’m only 23), so I’ve decided that I need a way to stay creative and focused on what makes me happy.
For the next month I want to take a picture of something that makes me happy and thankful to be alive. If I choose to, I’ll write some words to go with my pictures, if not, I won’t.
I’m hoping this exercise will keep me grounded and remind me that everything I need is right around me.
So to start:
John opened the car door for me this morning as he often does. He’s done this for almost 8 years and I sometimes forget how lucky I am to have someone who cares enough to show such kindness every day. (Thank you, John.)
Things that have been keeping me occupied
Tea, of course.
Keeping my plants alive.
Occasional knitting (with the softest yarn ever!)
My new otocinclus who cleaned the tank all by himself! 🙂
And last but not least: reading. I’m in between 7 books… I must have ADD. (My current reading list)
What are you drinking, knitting or reading? What’s occupying you?
