Framily. Friends + Family = Framily
I came up with a new word this week when I discovered that in being away from most of my blood relations that my friends have become my family here. Being that they are all an important part of my life it seems like a word to encompass both is necessary. And fitting.
What I've been up to in my spare time this week has been actually writing some individual letters/emails because when I started this blog I promised that I would still do that too.
I have also started reading again which has been an interesting journey back to doing. When I first moved here and wasn't working I thought I would do tons of the one thing I always wanted to when I was working and didn't have time. Read. Four months went by and I didn't finish one book. Over the past few weeks at work as my responsibilities increased and I was again facing a learning curve, my desire to read came back to me. Perhaps reading has to be a treat or a reward for it to draw us in. I have finished two books already and am half way through a third one. I think a good book could also be considered framily.
By the front door of my apartment I like to hang motivational or inspirational words or quotes. I change it up periodically as the mood strikes me. Yesterday I copied and hung up the following quotes to read and remember each time I go out to face the world.
Jak and I are off to the dog beach soon for a morning walk before I go to work later. Happy Friday Peeps! Dance and sing like no one is watching.
Until next time...
Peace and Love,
Hope
