Wonder Week reflection
I think my Wonder Week almost stretched into two weeks, but somehow that felt just right. ✨ After such a busy week last week, I had one incredible day filled with wonder, awe, family and connection… and then I got the flu! 😅 I found myself battling with my to-do list, feeling frustrated about being stuck at home, wanting to rest but also wanting to care for my loved ones as they got sick too. But the common theme throughout it all was that every single day, I found a little magic. ✨ I was really upset to miss two community calls because they truly are the highlight of my week. They ground me and make me feel so connected and seen. Today was my first day back at work, and I loved that I could listen to the community call recording and feel as though I was right there with you all, like I hadn’t missed out at all. So much of what was shared resonated with me, from social media making us feel like we’re not good enough to learning how to be open to receiving magic. I listened to all your beautiful voices and stories and felt such a sense of peace before stepping into a place that often makes me feel the complete opposite! 🤣 For that, thank you. I really do love this community. ❤️ One of my biggest glimmers was an incredible walk Betty and I shared down the South Coast, where I spotted the most beautiful rainbow in the virga over the ocean. I stopped and really soaked it all in before taking a photo to remember its beauty. Then, as we were leaving the beach we were surrounded by white butterflies. It was truly magical. 🌈 🦋 I also shared a beautiful yoga class with my sister-in-law, centred around connecting with our higher selves, and spent the rest of that day surrounded by family. I wasn’t able to get outside nearly as much as I would have liked this week, but somehow Betty and I still managed to find a little magic every day. We caught up with our best friends and simply enjoyed being together in the sunshine. This morning, at the start of our walk, I actually had to remind myself to get out of my head and open my eyes to what was around me. And when I did, I enjoyed it sooo much. 🥰

Day 24: Hit me up...
...with a good moment between you and your dog today, so I can join in and savour and magnify that moment with you. If you have a pic or story to post in the comments, go for it! 🙂 Just to contribute to the mood, here's a pic of the incredible view I had for a while this morning - jacaranda tree in full bloom beneath a glorious sky. It's a vertical panorama shot, hence the perspective. And just now, as I was about to click 'post' I glanced across at Koko to see her completely relaxed in one of her IKEA-dog-put-together-wrong positions. 😋

I just loveeeee Koko’s upside-down poses, and that one in particular, especially with your description! 😍 The jacarandas really are a treat for the eyes, especially with the contrast of the stormy sky and lush green trees. Today it rained just enough for us to cancel obedience club and enjoy a lovely walk with friends instead. I noticed that Betty was on her absolute best behaviour, and I felt so proud watching her make such good choices. The park where we do obedience was once somewhere I felt incredibly anxious about taking her, as @Marcia Davey will remember! It was that same wise Marcia who gave me the confidence to bring Betty down and work through those challenges together. Today I found myself reflecting on just how far we’ve come. We’ve put in the hard work, and now we get to enjoy the fruits of that effort. Today, that looked like a peaceful, social stroll with some very dear friends. What made it even more special was realising that these are people I’ve looked up to and respected for such a long time. Through my love of learning, dedication to Betty and passion for dog training, I’ve built relationships where that respect now goes both ways. To be surrounded by people I admire, who also value what I bring, feels like such a wonderful gift. I thoroughly appreciated that realisation and took a moment to really savour the thought and just how special it felt. ❤️

@Melanie Sweeney 🥰Thank you Mel! The want to share experiences makes so much more sense when you understand the concept of savouring. I get it now 🤗Thank you for the prompt!
PAWS for ear rubs and naps in the sunshine
The dogs and I have been busy in the garden today, weeding, mowing and whipper snipping. So when Zeb curled up by my thigh and asked for an ear rub I couldn't possibly deny him 🥹

😂😂😂 What a thread! I loveeee this! Thank you for sharing Birdy. I really like the way you describe things. I think words are so powerful. Even the way you say crunchy really helps to frame the situation as not quite fun or right…right now but it doesn’t become the main character of the day and really leaves room for magic to find us. All 3 of you! Building out of its butthole, dexterous useful butt and owner-builder all made me giggle 🤭 much love to you all and I hope you all have a magical Sunday.
