Full Week and Looking Ahead

 Yesterday after work, I felt absolutely tired and drained! Mentally exhausted from the week, its demands and energy output. Monday was great since I felt ready to come back to work after a break of feeling sick and low energy. And I was surprised to be able to make time for runs on Monday and Tuesday in the beautiful Fall weather!

On Sunday, it was the first rain of the season, and it was so special. I felt energetic enough to go out walking and embrace the cooler weather and light raindrops. I even came up with the idea of creating a blog dedicated to Russian language and study, and I felt so inspired by it all! I think it will help with pursuing and learning the language as a creative outlet. 

Some other highlights from the week, made a cauliflower soup that turned out delicious. Zoom call, morning Mass, adoration, 54 rosary novena, wearing Fall clothing (boots, layers, scarves), cat purrs and snuggles in the morning. Hearing about my sister's first ultrasound appointment, daily chats with my dear sister and sharing an inspiring design blog from the past (IHOD), receiving a Chinese bible and brochures in Russian and Chinese in the mail from my niece just because!

Some things I'm looking forward to are meeting up with my dear sister next weekend at a beloved coffee shop and much needed quality time! Trying to cut out time for more cooking and inspired Fall recipes, shopping for some cooler weather items, and mixing things up with trimming my bangs (I barely have them anymore since they're all grown out) 

Tomorrow is a potluck young adult meetup which should be fun and interesting as those things are hard to come by and just a chance to enjoy the afternoon and meet some new people.
