Taking Stock - February 2021

Wednesday, 10 February 2021

 



Making: This blog has a new look and a new logo. What do you think?

Drinking: A daily cup of chamomile tea, which was recommended by my favorite Dr. Aunty to help with my anxiety. First cup was hard to swallow, but five days later I am used to the taste now.

Reading: Just finished 'The First Woman' by Jennifer Nansubuga Makumbi. There is
so much to unpack, I am already working on a blog post...

Playing: Not playing anything. Any recommendations?

Wishing: Just did a 30 minute session of yoga. I wish I never
lose the energy to make time like this for myself every week.
Dear future Maria, please don't get bored with this...

Enjoying: I look forward to my one hour of exercise each day! wait... what!? I know I am also wondering who this Maria is too. It really helps though. I work away my frustration. I sleep soooo much better. I am also enjoying cooking A LOT. I am making curries, stir-frys...anything and everything I put my mind too. Maybe my wifey genes are kicking in lol... However, I burnt my hand reeeeally badly a couple weeks ago, thankfully it's healing very well. You can't tell at all now. 

Writing: I want to do a #JournalingChallenge. Currently working through my procrastination issues...
Most likely I will follow Jo franco's 30 day prompts. 

Loving: Skillshare. As we already know my soul relishes in learning! 

Eating: Oat porridge with banana, chia seeds and honey. Very Nice!
My mum was right. I need to find some almond butter.
I want to delve into the art of making smoothies soon..
Watch this space.

Needing:  To panel beat the car and spray paint it. Got into two mini accidents in January.

Knowing: The feeling of doom/dread. I am trying to accept there is not much I can do about it
 when it comes.  It follows me around like a shadow....
Always reminding me that I am not worthy of anything good, and that I am hopeless. 
I keep telling it to do what it needs to do, but it enjoys torturing me in my head. 

Thinking: Too much... all the time without stopping. Thinking and thinking and thinking about things I have no control over. 

Giggling Over: The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, I don't have a favorite yet but Whitney is coming along strong. Then there's Bridgerton season one, loved the costumes!!! Probably would have appreciated it more if I was in my naïve-uninformed-early-twenties, but still 
a lovely risk for Shonda Rhimes to take. Can't wait for season two.
