You had me at chocolate: what excites you?

Months ago, I shared a new Monday mindset I began to employ as a way to encourage others who, like me, may be known (on occasion) to perpetuate Monday’s bad rap. For those of you who missed it, check out my legacy post touting what I (still) lovingly dub Funday Monday. Today, I still delight in my exclusive Monday indulgences — replacing my former Sunday night melancholy with anticipation for the fresh week ahead. But even better? My excitement also bubbles over into the remaining six days. This might take the form of a mid-week sunrise hike, or a surprise dark chocolate sea salt truffle that finds its way home from the grocery store, to discovering a new package of veggie goldfish wedged between the rolled oats and flax seed in my pantry. And a couple weeks ago, I added a solo “artist’s date” to the mix. You can read all about it by signing up here to receive my once-monthly Always the Write Time emails.

What excites you?
