Hi everyone, Catherine here.
Today I’m thinking of all the ways we can enjoy ourselves, whether we’re out of lockdown (Sydney) or in lockdown (Melbourne), whether the borders are now open (Canada & America) or whether you’re simply hanging around in your pjs at home because it’s the weekend and you want to.
I’m doing lovely things:
Making a dessert for Sunday dinner.
Slipping on my favourite ‘pink diamond’ ring. Similar one here — mine is three seasons old from Lovisa and I wish I’d bought a few :(
Taking a long walk in nature and enjoying the Aussie bush in our beautiful city.
Reading something I enjoy. I’m into Jeannette Winterson’s fascinating book of essays about Artificial Intelligence, 12 Bytes. And I absolutely LOVED Ishiguro’s novel Klara and the Sun. If you’re at all wondering about how we might live with robots, you’ll love his book. I fell in love with the soft-hearted Klara.
Working on my new novel.
Hugging anyone who comes my way in the kitchen.
Listening to Fleetwood Mac while I cook: this song.
Pausing to slow down and be.
Adding the joy for someone else.
That’s it, my friends. If you’d like to join me, then let’s go ENJOY this day.
Sending love around the world,
Catherine x
