Rio | Feel Good Friday 120420

Beach AND Mountains?! How have I not been here before? I could not be more grateful to be in Brazil right now with my brother and Teti, and I’ll share Rio pics next week, as this week there’s some reflecting to look back over and be grateful for… Piracanjuba Brazilian whey protein drink—I am not…

Stormy Beach | Feel Good Friday 112720

I love a stormy beach—the rain, thunder, and weather with crashing waves is just as gorgeous as a 70-and-sunny blue-sky day, in its own way. Particularly in contrast. Fitting, then, that as I reflect on the past week as I compose this gratitude list, we’re sitting at a stormy beach in Texas. First, it should…

Friendsgiving | Feel Good Friday 112020

Not a single picture was taken at Friendsgiving, but it was a wonderful night of laughs, delicious homemade food, and loads of wine! Things I’m grateful for: Hot pool!

So Many Good Things | Feel Good Friday 111320

I think this is a lucky Friday the Thirteenth. Working backawards, it’s been an awesome, insane, busy week but there are so many good things I am grateful for: Nali’s health!! A infection revealed another cancer scare, but after a few worrisome days, thankfully no cancer. Girls Night Disguised as Book Club … man I…

Bird Gang | Feel Good Friday 110620

Grateful for an awesome faux-Bird Gang weekend that included an epic Halloween, lots of hot cowgirl pooling, and a ton of love and affection from friends that are family. Patio party with my parents, onesie board game night, many Oakmont meals—I’m making it my local dangit!, shameless self-promotion of the podcast, and football Sunday amped…

Not-Fall Fall | Feel Good Friday 101620

It’s that ridiculous time of year in Austin where you WANT it to be fall and it’s just not … you might get some cool mornings, but then we’re back up in the high 90s in the middle of the day. Nonetheless, I’m making pumpkin centerpieces to keep it fall in my house, while updating…

The Work Groove | Feel Good Friday 100920

… when the work groove is back-to-back meetings from 7am to 4pm, and then you need to actually DO work after that. But, it’s all fun and I am very grateful. My weeks sure do look different right now, though, as weekdays are basically just work, workout, sleep, do it again. It does make the…

The Simple Moments | Feel Good Friday 100220

Monday afternoon, the Compound went for a walk to grab coffee from Tiny’s. Nali went. RonRon went (to the corner anyway, with a loud mew of protest). We weren’t gone but 15 minutes, but the fresh air, sunshine, and laughter was completely rejuvenating. I have long worked remotely and love it, but these casual, connective…
