Miigwech for the shoutout, Elizabeth. I appreciate it! This quote really got me:
"Another day passed, and I didn’t make much time to feel the sun on my face or notice how the chickadees have made a new nest in the tree in our yard."
It happens to me too, even as I've made huge efforts for it not to, and it really sucks when it does. But a practice to be outside at SOME point at the same time every day helps; for me it's been morning saunters. They are key to my sanity.
Hearing you live in Seattle, are you familiar with this wonderful book?
It's currently on my nightstand. It's lovely. It speaks to wildness being everywhere, all the time, something we really don't need to look all that hard for. That's important to remember too!
