Christmas List/Black Friday/Cyber Monday/Giving Tuesday
Y’all I don’t wanna be a bratty blogger but I have BEEN THROUGH IT this past month with this blog (and my other sites). I’ve worked through a host (pun intended) of issues, gotten hacked a bunch of times, and—fingers and toes crossed, wood knocked upon—finally have the site cleaned. Here’s hoping we’re back to…
Thanksgiving | Feel Good Friday 112621
Friendsgiving and familygiving. Happy turkeys and fancy wines. Nali snuggles and baby nephew snuggles. Starbucks family Thanksgiving and a failed yoga class done at home. A humid, rainy night out and cold days. There’s a ton to be grateful for right now! My family is trying to treat this Thanksgiving in Austin like a bit…
38 Reframes After 37 But Before 38
As I sit down to think about what I want from the coming birthday year, I’m struck by how happy I am right now. How much growth I’ve been through personally in the past year-and-a-half and how much I’ve owned who I am and who I want to be. One of the ways I’ve been…

Back to Our Regularly-Scheduled Gratitude | Feel Good Friday 040921
LOL I wrote that title on Friday with the best intentions, but we are at Sunday afternoon and I still haven’t published this “regularly-scheduled” gratitude list… Thanks to the friends who immediately picked up the phone and FaceTime/called/texted me upon reading last week’s Feel Angry Friday, and your fierce support. Even if you didn’t, thank…
Good Failing | Feel Good Friday 031921
Maybe seven years ago, I wrote a blog post about failing for a crossfit gym. Here is the cliffs notes version: one of the best things I think powerlifting teaches is how to fail: How to safely fail – bailing out of a squat or lift How to rally from a fail – just because…
Checklist 49
Well, this checklist should be focused on snowpocalypse things to do, because … well, it’s a pandy blizzy in Austin. Alongside snow that’s sticking, power outages (not here), and a boil-water notice, there’s a lot of commentary making social justice issues out of … things that aren’t. Not understanding why we can’t focus on the…
