Friday Girls Night Out. Lazy Saturday. Family lunch Sunday. Football Sunday afternoon. Pod record Monday. Bachelorette girls night Tuesday. Yoga with mama Wednesday. Stress bake and watch debates Thursday. It’s a good lil week. Work is good. Work is really, really good. I love my team, I love the work. How cool is that?! Tomorrow…
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…
… 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…
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…
On Saturday, I was hanging out in my cowgirl pool on my float, readin’ my book, drinkin’ my electrolyte water, lovin’ life. My gratitude for that moment is captured pretty dang well in the picture I took from my rosé float in the pool. Which isn’t to say my weekend wasn’t busy—it was, with SUP…
Y’all, I think I forgot to mention my edger. I got an edger fo my birthday, marking two years in a row my parents have given me yard tools, and I could not be happier about it. This is an honest-to-god-edger, that rolls alongside the lawn and cuts deep. I love it. I love taking…
Laboring is hard. Labor Day weekend is not hard. Especially not when you have a Permanent Adult Kiddie Cowgirl Pool with a rosé floatie and temps in the 100s. AND you get a last-minute invite on a boat, so that’s a fabulous Saturday. AND THEN your childhood bestie comes into town for adult kiddie pool…

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, PARENTS! HAPPY DOMESTIC PARTNERSHIP, M & P! HAPPY FLOWERS, ME! My dad surprised me with flowers (from him & my mom) on Monday, and they literally and figuratively brightened up my whole week. I felt so supported, seen, and loved—thank you, Dad. Life is changing in a big way, and it’s awesome. I’ve…
