Currently: April 2018

I'm on spring break, so it’s time for another Currently post!

  • Taking it easy in general (#springbreakselfcare). 
  • Nourishing myself however it feels right. Acupuncture this morning. 
  • Riding that line between doing nothing (which I don't do very well) and accomplishing things. Pondering why it feels so important for me to DO rather than be. 
  • Walking daily (despite the 8 inches of snow we got earlier this week!) 
  • Trying not to let the neverending winter get me down. (First snow in Minneapolis was on Oct. 27, last snow: ???)
  • Visiting Como Conservatory for a burst of humidity and color. I love the Tropical Encounters room and Chloe the sloth! 
  • Catching up with friends and family. 
  • Taking daily afternoon reading breaks and naps with Rusty the Cat
  • Reading: Binti: The Night Masquerade (so good) by Nnedi Okorafor, Syllabus by Lynda Barry, and a variety of graphic novels I picked up at the library. 
  • Watching shows that have come back recently like The Americans (last season!), Silicon Valley, and I plan on starting the new season of A Series of Unfortunate Events soon, too. 
  • Weaving a blue/gray/white wall hanging, slowly but surely.
  • Filling out my Story Mapping worksheets as I prepare to work with Laura Holway again next week. 
  • Thinking about cleaning out my office closet (weighing the importance of getting this done vs. just relaxing...)
  • Playing music for me! 
  • Taking today as a work day to plot about my album and Kickstarter (coming in May/June!) 
  • Booking my lodging for New Music Gathering in May, and thinking about other trips happening this summer. 
  • Feeling a little overwhelmed as I think about how many things are happening (and need to happen) this spring and summer. 
  • Not doing a 100 Day Project this year, which feels weird, but putting one more thing on my plate seems unwise. 

Tell me what you’re up to right now, big or small - write it in the comments below!
