I get to see my best girls and favorite fam this weekend and I am so excited! We booked a last minute trip to Playa del Carmen for Memorial Day weekend and I am so excited! I gamed out some points so it’s mostly free except an expensive return flight home putting us in San…
A Gratitude List This is fun! There are things called WonderBlocks now in WordPress, which are fun to play with. I am grateful I am curious and continue to learn. I use ChatGPT for scrounging up new work. I use other AI tools for creation (yes I love Canva). I need to do more. I…

There are friends that are just soul friends. Friends you’d do anything for, time be damned. I was lucky enough to spend just an afternoon with one of those a week ago, a twin flame I hadn’t seen in person in five years, and it was just magic. Fulfilling, busy, and not enough time. Then…
