My answer: My sister
First anonymous question: Hottest sport?
My answer: I don’t really sport and I’m super heat sensitive so… All of them that aren’t water or snow sports?
Saw @heroicendeavour@glammr.us answering anonymous questions and thought it might be fun to do this myself. I reserve the right to refuse to answer any question but if you want to get in my nonny inbox, here’s the link to send me a question.
Did the PBS Kids NYE countdown so… Here’s to some good stuff happening in 2023.
A Dispatch from the Threshold of 2023 🚪🎇
I don’t know if I’ll get to do all the year-end/new year transition things I’d hoped to do today: tarot stuff, bullet journal migration. I need a nap and my right wrist is hurting and I think my left will soon follow. But guess what? Listening to my body is a great way to mark this transition.
Instead of one word for 2023, I have two:
ADVENTURE + REST
Tomorrow I’ll share more about my intentions for the year with Leigh Bardugo’s Begin As You Mean to Go On and Kim Werker’s Year of Making. But I have three intentions for the new year:
- Read for pleasure.
- Make things.
- Take walks.
More on those tomorrow.
And I want to keep moving toward living in alignment with my core values:
- Curiosity
- Creativity
- Care
That’s all for now. I’ll share more soon.
On this day last year, I wrote:
“…my word of the year for 2022 is MEND. My goal is to keep going.”
Last night I quote tweeted someone who said “Please brag to me about a thing you did in 2022 that you’re proud of.” & added:
“I kept going.”
It feels good to achieve a goal.
PS If you’re wondering why I’m still awake at 4 it’s because my mom keeps having miserable side effects from the TKIs for her leukemia and then I worry and my body goes into anxiety mode. Also all my dreams now are stress dreams and I don’t want them.
