Before I dive into MAGICAL MARCH!, here’s a quick update on my heart: There is no update.
The transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE),which I explained here, isn’t until April 7. I wish it was RIGHT NOW, but hey—at least it’s scheduled. In the meantime, I’m trying to accept that things look different for me right now. My low oxygen levels are interfering with … well … life, but I’m trying accept what is rather than resist reality. Why is that so hard sometimes?! More to come on the ol’ ticker.
I’m also on steroids again. Blah. But, enough of that!
On Instagram last week, I posted about my goal to have a Magical March! My favorite definition for “magical” is this one: extremely or extraordinarily pleasant, enjoyable, or exciting.
So, in an effort to tune into life’s little treasures, I’m seeking and sharing little moments of razzle-dazzle this month. In the past week, I’ve found magic in the following:
- The miracle that is hem tape (How did I miss out on this for so long?!)
- An incredible sound bath that energized my spirit
- Doodling a quote that resonated with me
- Taking a midday weekend nap in the bed with my little family
- Adding lights to make the porch feel even more cozy
If I stay grounded in the present moment, I’m confident more magic will come my way.
Be still, my heart. Seriously.
