After reading a message from Charlie Gilkey’s mailing list I began to consider habits that would serve me if I resumed them (or reframed them) to include them in my dailies.
And so, here goes a resuming of weekly “currently” notes (albeit a bit delayed because I sorta forgot about the resuming part):
What habits and routines do you need to reboot to help you manage whatever change you’re experiencing right now?
Routines and sequences are always the way through. These gems of living help us to move beyond decision-fatigue and procrastination (and general overthinking of all.the.things) — and inspire us to experiment and try new things! ♥
Moment-by-moment. Within each breath and within your micro-movements, naps and teeny-tiny bits of progress.

outdoor sculpture at Martin Nature Park in Oklahoma City
- Learning more about outdoor sculptures in Georgia after reading an article in the New York Times. (Which led to learning about other interesting outdoor exhibits, such as the Inhotim in Brazil.)
- Sandy Vans (because van-life is something I am always thinking about) 🙂
- learning about thru-hiking because of the Sleep Stories series on the Calm app
- Pacific Crest Trail (thru-hiking has become a guiding concept (timely wisdom for living) for me; this particular trail (on average) requires five months to complete and it feels like perfect timing because there are (5) months remaining in this calendar year 🙂
- For months now I have repeatedly listened to the series of sleep stories about this trail.
- Alex Mason (interview with someone who thru hiked the PCT twice)
- This led to a reminder than I would like to revisit Sequoia National Forest. ♥
- A curiosity-inspired read: camping in Oklahoma and remote camping in my home state (more likely where I would do a day hike — not camp overnight).
- Pacific Crest Trail (thru-hiking has become a guiding concept (timely wisdom for living) for me; this particular trail (on average) requires five months to complete and it feels like perfect timing because there are (5) months remaining in this calendar year 🙂
