I did go get ice-cream and didn't even realise I must have been subconsciously guided by this post until I wrote it as a glimmer the next day and thought... that sounds familiar! We did an 8.30pm run on a grey drizzling freezing evening and ate it while strolling outside. It was freezing! But felt enlivening in a way only silly outrageous things do - so thank you!
Ahhhhh this is so good Gill! Bonus points for eating it while strolling outside. I really get the enlivening piece too - it's funny how often our kids have invited my partner & I into those silly things that turn into these incredibly memorable moments that fill us with so much joy. This was a reminder to let them take the lead a little more often and see where it takes us so thank you!

Yes to ice cream! It's never the wrong weather for that...
This seems to be the resounding response to this post! Haha. Simple joys!
I love the idea of an enduring intention for your substack and what a beautiful filter you have chosen.
Yes to all of this! Especially the love notes 🥰 although I’ll skip the ice cream, I’ve already had 5 this week 🫠😆
Haha in that case maybe save it as permission for a week where you haven't had 5....
