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…
All of the people I love, loved on me on Tuesday, and before and after. It was awesome. If you’re reading this, you probably loved on me, so thank you thank you thank you. >>> there was a pool, a P6, a Better Half, there were so many laughs and flowers and A BARBELL and…
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…
One word, many weeks, a whole lot of wire-brushing: WHEELBARROW. Friends, the before and after of this gem is astounding. Found this wheelbarrow in my great-grandpa’s homestead, and spent a lot of hours soaking, spraying, rubbing, wirebrushing the steel to restore it to its pre-rusty shape; didn’t really touch the wood other than to seal…
I didn’t Checklist yesterday. I didn’t have much to say, and I was very busy celebrating! But here’s one big rec for Austinites: Looking forward to Outdoor Yoga this Saturday with Shelby! And then because I published last week’s FGF on Monday, we’re only working with a few days to talk about here … but…
Welp, alongside accidentally ghosting a really important email opportunity (it’s FINE), I also ghosted myself apparently in not publishing my feel good friday. Suffice it to say, the beach was fun… Remember when I lived at the beach? Sigh. Now I drive to it. But in the most hilarious Spirit-airlines inspired back seat, squished between…
As 2020 continues, so the Summa Uv Paddleboards continues… with a Friday night float turned hilarious 3am dance/bumble party wherein two single girls alternately dance it up and swipe on bumble while veeeeeery tipsy on (skinny) margaritas, a great new exploration of the other end of the lake followed by garage beers and Indian food,…
THERE IS JUST SO MUCH TO BE GRATEFUL FOR. Even amidst rampant dehydration, scorching temps, anxiety and sleeplessness! Very excited about new neighborhood haunt Oakmont Food Company. Their chicken tenders (yes from the kids menu no shade) are phenomenal—and gluten-free and made of free-range chicken. Holy. Grail. (I still love you Hopwerks PDX) It’s made…
