something we loved:The Olympics! It was so exciting and I really loved the skill of all the athletes in events I watched, my loyalty shifting as my favourite ones went out of contention. I have to say the Men's Dual Moguls was my favourite event that I watched - it was so exciting and totally wild! What skill those guys have (as I'm sure the women do too but I didn't get to see that).
something that sustained us: Lots of fun dancing with friends. We had a big group at Sofi Tukker and on The Jackson which was nice, though I always have a lot of fun when I'm with the usual trio.
Also the family playing at Hijinks was great. Laughing with the kids, hearing all their stories, stealing looks with my husband sharing how much we love and are proud of our people - literally our people we made together.
something we're carrying forward from this month to the next: This month has been huge - so many things on...it will be hard to beat...BUT...next month I have so much to look forward to with friends. Starting with Alok, which I now realise must be a Mardi Gras recovery thing, is a great way to open the month. I have some great restaurant meals booked, some dancing planned and theatre. So I guess I carrying forward that feeling of joy and bonhomie that I felt a lot this month.
something we're making space for: Singing. The first choir I'm in is finally getting back together after a few months off and I've signed my husband and I up to a one off at the Opera House, as he likes to sing too. At Maverick Sabre, he kept asking his 'Sydney Choir' to sing, and we all belted out the songs. It was such a lovely feeling. I think we need to sing more, even if we aren't that good, it feels so good. I've been singing loudly in the car ever since and it really is elating.
Sharing also with #MuralMondays - there's some new outlines on the walls in Newtown and I'm wondering if they're completed or will be painted in. I sort of like them as they are. Very olde timey!
