This Monday morning was surprisingly pleasant. Getting myself to wake up initially was not, but I trekked outside and took a few deep breaths. The air was cooler than I expected; I love cool mornings in the summer because it is so unexpected. It makes me appreciate a soft fleece and a hot cup of coffee. I always love to be up far earlier than needs to be, and today was no exception.
I typically pick out my outfits the night before because I make it a creative affair with makeup and shoe coordination as well. It is something I enjoy so much (it allows me to feel as though I am exercising my full potential as a professional and a creative all at the same time), but this morning I picked my outfit out because of the cooler weather. As lame as it sounds, it was exhilarating to coordinate my skin care, makeup and outfit all together simultaneously. Monday morning thrills, am I right? When I finally stepped foot outside, I was bathed in rays of early morning sun. I always think it’s fun to join the train of people already heading in the particular direction that I also plan to go. I merge into the beginning of a new day and follow the steps of many before me. Despite my location in a city, there are still birds to be heard. I particularly like the ever-present breeze and the way it whips the water of the harbor. Because of the cool nature of the morning, the breeze was particularly prominent. I got to wear a jacket for the first time in a while. I have to say, I felt very chic. Very urban. I know it’s all in my mind, and in reality I most likely looked like a short haired, stumpy girl, but I’m committing to the idea that it only matters what I think. Anyway, also, on the way to work this morning the nice people from KIND, the brand that makes super healthy snacks, actually stopped me and gave me a free sample of a raspberry chia breakfast bar. Holy crap it was good. I also failed to pack myself breakfast and account for the fact that I was starving when I left the house. The people at KIND were a blessing, really, and like I said, the chia morning bars (or whatever they’re called) were actually very good. I may actually go get myself a box. Despite it being Monday, everything has gone swimmingly. I appreciate days like today, and I hope you guys are also having an equally as fabulous day. As always, thank you for fostering my creative outlet that is the canvas of the world wide web. When I write, even if it is about pointless things, I feel all the more productive, invigorated, and excited. If you have never given it a shot, I highly recommend it. Even if just about no one reads it, who cares. Writing feels good.
