10 gorgeous art prints that will bring you focus and clarity

10 gorgeous art prints for writers: the best art prints for writers to bring focus + clarity!


Here’s a thing I do all the time: think about something I have to do, think about another thing I have to do, think about TEN more things I really have to do, panic and worry, start to feel like life is one long to-do list, trudge through it.

Let me tell you, it’s super fun.

The funny thing is that I can do this about anything. Beautiful honeymoon in Greece? A long weekend to catch up on errands? As soon as I have a list or schedule in front of me, I switch into checking-off-the-boxes mode and out of enjoying-life mode.

Basically, I can turn absolutely anything into a to-do instead of a fun experience.

That’s why I need constant reminders—and I mean daily wallops across the head—that I need to take things one thing at a time and focus.

What we’re eating this week:

(Because I could not get it together, this is from last week, when I was actually home. I am so not home right now.)

I am home—gloriously home—and so we’re cooking and eating and finally feeling a bit healthier. Here’s what’s keeping us in (sort of) tip top shape:

Monday: I made just about the yummiest Pad Thai I’ve ever had, all thanks to the crew at America’s Test Kitchen and Comfort Food Makeovers. Meals like this make me wonder: why can’t everything I make be that perfect mix of healthy, delicious, and crave-worthy? (Answer: because I bungle about 50% of the recipes I make, and the other 50% of the time I’m trying to find excuses to eat hot dogs.)

Tuesday: Hot dogs for dinner! But, really. My lovely author, Chungah, is working on her second cookbook, and when I saw a recipe for Chicago Style Hot Dog Salad in the manuscript, how could I not? Pepper and I agree: 10 out of 10 stars for hot dogs for dinner.

Wednesday: Jarrett is taking the lead on dinner tonight, and he’s promised me citrus shrimp over cauliflower steaks and green beans. And yes, it’s a cookbook recipe, so we should be okay. (Which makes me think: maybe the best reason to love cookbooks is that they tell your husband what to do in the kitchen, so you don’t have to.)

Thursday: We have some leftover ground moose at the bottom of the freezer, so moose burgers it is. (This is a sentence I would never have fathomed 10 years ago, but then you marry a farm boy, and here we are. Moose burgers on a Thursday. Welcome to my life.)

Friday: Out—gloriously out—and so we’re letting someone else do the cooking while we do all the eating and the ignoring of healthy balance, because: weekend!

Cheers!
