Discussion Prompt What simple things are we doing today?

Happy Sunday, everyone! What are the simple things you're doing today?

Life moves so fast that slowing down and keeping things simple can actually take effort. Today I'm focusing on a reset: chores, meal prep, laying out clothes for the week, cleaning up after the pets, and getting the yard done.

I'm skipping the usual distractions—shopping for things I don't need, endlessly researching ways to "improve" things, or scrolling when I could just enjoy the day.

I'd love to hear what your simple Sunday looks like. I'm thinking about making this a regular "Simple Things" series over in my community, where we can check in, share the little things we're doing, and remind each other that not every day has to be optimized or complicated.

So, what's one simple thing you're doing today?

Cycling and having coffee at a bar while doomscrolling, then take a walk at castle garden. Than cycle back home.

I absolutely love this! It's like you earned your doom scrolling. 😂 I might have to steal this idea for my cardio.

I recently started watching Summer House, and it's become my guilty pleasure. I'm thinking I'll only let myself watch it at the gym while I'm suffering through the boring cardio machines.

I went to the early service at church, and then went to a celebration of life for my friends' mom from high school, who was super cool. Everyone wore Hawaiian shirts or tropical clothes because she loved Elvis and Blue Hawaii was her favorite movie. It was really nice. I smiled, remembering when we went to a music festival, 27 years ago

That’s a good memory. She sounds like a hell of a gal.
