I keep missing my self-imposed deadlines. This was written on Thursday: We’re headed to Idaho Springs for Rapidgrass this weekend on top of the mountain, and it’s gonna be awesome. Even if it’s raining, which it might be. I’m excited to get out of the heat. The last couple weeks of summer were really intense…
Sanne and I spent the last week “in Chicago” with one of my best friends, a mama to two boys, who actually lives in a very sweet suburb of Chicago that is basically a dreamland of boys biking to each others’ houses, mamas texting, and driveway drinks. The parents are all lovely and amazing, the…
BIG BIG THINGS in my world I am grateful for: I cannot believe Sanne is one! She has the best papa. And mama 😉 And cousins/fam! This is art from one of her cousins made just for her birthday. We had a pool party at a friend’s house, and it was just perfect. Pool, people,…
I’m grateful to be able to share my new mini podcast is live! Also on Apple podcasts. Others forthcoming. It wasn’t really my intention to launch today, but it also wasn’t really not … Fridays aren’t great for content, but I’m impatient and there’s little to no expectation that this show perform off the jump,…
We’re heading to Bend to see my MCT!! I miss them so much all the time and cannot wait for several fun-filled days together! I flew last-minute to Colorado 🙂 How lucky am I that my Twin happened to have the day off, and could come up to the cabin and clean and stage our…
I had so much fun being the CMO Alliance emcee! I am good at this! I will post a recap on LinkedIn on Monday because apparently posting on Friday is BAD if you want engagement. Unlike feeling GOOD which is a must for Friday! How does one charge for emcee services?? Anyway, other things I…
It’s a bold move to title a post Funny. I’m in a funny mood. I’m amped—it feels like there’s more motion and activity in my job search/work search than ever. It feels like there’s motion in podcasting and h.e.n.r.y. and emceeing and all sorts of Brand Lyssa things (barf). I’m happy—I got to attend the…
Sanne is standing and bobbing and it is the cutest thing in the whole world. When she gets scared or tired, she squats down sooooo slowly pilates instructors everywhere are jealous, and it’s hilarious. She’s cruising and loves laps around our (leather pouf) coffee table. She is the most wonderful baby in the whole world…
Grateful that this trip, we felt like we really lived there. It was incredible, both grounding and expansive, and I was so happy. Great music on the mountain from singer-songwriter Adam Craig after a glass-bottomed gondola ride on the new cable car. Our favorite brunch at MTN Prime. Frothy Cup. Vintage Moose. Mountain Made, Mountain…
If the anticipation is as important to the trip as the trip itself, this one should be good. We are headed to Colorado for the long weekend, and I absolutely cannot wait. We haven’t been in too long, and I need mountain air, expansive skies, and room to breathe. Plus the Mighty Argo cable car…
