1. This has been a really difficult week. But I made it through. And I have seen lots of social media posts of other people who have struggled, and that is heartening.

2. The Great British Baking Show. Always. I am loving this new season, but sadly my favorite people keep getting sent home. But it’s still such a feel-good show, and I’ve needed that.

3. The weather has been gorgeous. The sky has been a most beautiful lapis, the temperature has been a little warm but generally delightful, and the trees are a blend of greens and yellows, oranges, and reds. To me, this is the perfect part of the year, and that is making me happy.
