Weekly Brief No. 3: Weekend Reads

October 20, 2017






Congrats! We made it through another week! I'm currently working on this post while drinking coffee in my living room. Jazz music is playing in the background and the Netflix fireplace "film' is crackling across from me. It's crazy how these three little things are making me insanely happy right now. This is a much needed reminder that I need to take time to do the little things that I love. We can experience happiness from the simplest things! So if you're week has been a little rough, take this weekend to relax and do the simple things you love. I know I am! Fingers crossed this will do the trick and help me feel re-centered. Happy weekend and happy reading!
