1. AFC Champions! It takes a lot to get me to care about sports that don’t involve a soccer ball. But these last few years, watching Patrick Mahomes turn the Chiefs into a winning team, seeing how it’s brought the city together, has been lovely to experience. I’m so happy that they won the championship, and I can’t wait to see what happens in the Big Football Game.
2. Ping pong balls. I love our cat, but he is young and has lots of energy. I have found the easiest way to burn some of that off is to keep a nice big pile of ping pong balls near my laptop. I just grab them one by one and toss them down the basement stairs, and he is off. Running up and down the stairs and playing with all those balls wears him out a little. But even better, it makes him happy.
3. I am having a long weekend. I too Friday and Monday off, so it’s been 4 days that I got to spend with this guy right here. DonDon is teaching me so much about being in the moment and loving and snuggling and demanding breakfast on your own schedule, no matter who wants to sleep. This year, I need to take more time off work and enjoy my life. Like a cat.
