Flowers | Feel Good Friday 082820

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…

An Overnight to Fredericksburg

As a native Texan, I had some reservations about an overnight to Fredericksburg. But! I now wholly endorse the place because this was an amazing 24 hours filled with surprises. The intention was a holy-grail visit to French Connection Wines, a winery I’ve been stalking since they opened last September. The place is every bit…

CELEBRATE! | Feel Good Friday 081420

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…

BEEEEEACH | Feel Good Friday 080720 LOLZ it’s Monday

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…

Flowers and Foods | Feel Good Friday 072420

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…

COVID Checklist Week 18

This week’s convo is much more calm than previous weeks. Workouts PELOTON IS HERE. I have taken 3 rides. I HATE it every time during, and love it every time I get off. Cardio, yo! I love BFree’s Digital Studio. Trying a new workout via Zoom called 1WRKOUT. It utilizes “time under tension” to the hypnotic…

COVID Checklist Week 17

Hard to believe it’s been four months of this. Workouts I WAS BORN TOO LATE!! Women’s flag football to become a collegiate sport … so far only 15 schools have signed on, but more are in the works. BFree’s Digital Studio is up and running, and I took my first class with the lovely Shelby…

COVID Checklist Week 16

Y’all this is wild. Texas was open, now it’s closing again … I have tried to read as much as I can, do what I think is right, and continue to be more or less isolated in my house. But I just can’t hold it in any longer: this is complete fear mongering or safety…

But Saturday | Feel Good Friday 062620

Yesterday, Friday, of the Feel Good variety, was a whirlwind! A super exciting, Lyss is confident and happy and on her game again, whirlwind. The whole week was busy, starting with fun family time last weekend up through a trip to the family homestead in small-town Texas and a visit to San Antonio. I’m super…
