✨️ Mel's Sunday Shift week of JUN 21

🧠 Reflection

My goal has been humor.

I've continued to read my book slowly. I'm enjoying it. And I have my playlist... which I just haven't gotten to, since I haven't watched much screen time. So I'm going to keep exploring and sit with it.

But something that was genuinely so funny and so proud and teary-eyed:

My seven-year-old had a talent show at her school, and she did her gymnastics routine.

At rehearsal she did the routine from her gymnastics class... which was, let's say, designed on the shorter end of things 😉

The school told her it had to be at least two minutes.

So her solution? She took out a few moves. Made it shorter.

Then she filled the rest with a Guinness World record breaking amount of cartwheels, forward rolls, backward rolls, and round offs. Non stop. The entire length of the song.

The endurance was incredibly impressive.

That probably made me laugh the most this week. She blew past the two-minute mark and just kept going... two minutes and forty-three seconds, right to the very end of the song.

Because she had no idea when two minutes were up while she was up there.

What's genuinely funny in life is sometimes just the unexpected twists and turns in ordinary moments.

And the biggest win...

"Maman, j'avais une peur bleue." (Mom, I was scared stiff.)

But she showed up. She did it. She was beaming with pride for showing up for herself.

And that win is priceless.

🌿 My Learning

I get teary-eyed at these things every single time, because for me, the win is actually just facing your fears, showing up, and doing something vulnerable. And I couldn't be more proud of her and her monster level of endurance.

✅ Good / Better / Best Goals

Good: Continuing to read my book.

Better: Actually making time to just listen to funny stuff.

Best: In the day-to-day moments, bringing more humor. Trying to find levity and jokes in it.

🎯 Intentions for This Week

→ Bring more humor in

→ Keep reading my book, slowly

→ Watch my funny playlist

→ Keep exploring and sitting with it
