But I don’t wear flip-flops. Last week I wrote about putting too much identity pressure on myself for sports and fitness. This week, I (actually kind of accidentally) focused on activities that aren’t fitness and … drumroll … ONLY WENT TO THE GYM ONCE. Whoa! But it was still a busy, jam-packed week with a…
SO many things. But let’s just focus on THIS Friday. Today. Feeling good about TODAY. Morning: play volleyball with some of my crew of girls. Mainly Chels & Wende. Favorites. Stressful morning, they were still shining stars of it. Work: so much of it; but great meetings; and I was working at home, on my…
Changes are afoot. Doing with love. So I will be at peace. Confident. Grateful for: time, space, friends, books, protein cookies, nali, family, latte link 2, vb, beach, bonfires, crossfitters, yoga, ra yoga. Save Save
Pieces of my soul. That’s what I’m grateful for this week. Monday marked 9 years since my best friend was killed. It seems so long ago, yet so recent. The feeling of loss fades, but will always be present—because he is, and has, a piece of my soul. Appropriately, I celebrated his birthday and the anniversary of his…
The mama The mini The mulligan … Won’t let me take a picture of him, but suffice it to say that my Toronto vacation turned into sleeping in a hospital chair followed by a Scandal marathon with a grouchy, drugged-up fella friend missing a body part. So I will need a Canada mulligan.
Natty, I’m grateful for my constant plus one. “I thought your burrito was going to be your Feel Good Friday.”
Last weekend’s trip to Idaho was mind-bogglingly perfect. Literally everything went right. We packed a ton of fun stuff into one long weekend, but the most amazing part of the trip was the people: five near-strangers (Bromance and I already had a, well, bromance) became instant best friends (#bestspuds). From the moment the guys picked…
Happy early wear loads of red, white, and blue day. I’m on a boat (maybe). Last weekend, however, I was on a float! Seattle! I was visiting the person I still call my roommate though she now lives in another city in another state with a different roommate aka her boyfriend. It was an absolutely…
“Maybe she won’t notice if I just camouflage” … Someone is a little disconcerted by all the buzz around moving, but ultimately she’s happy in this new spot. And hey, if puppy is happy, I’m happy, because I couldn’t be more grateful for this dog. My parents being here this past weekend kicked my butt into…
The puppy and I don’t live in Long Beach, so I guess we can’t technically staycation there. But given that it’s basically Orange County, I think we’re still good on calling what we did last weekend a staycation. Basically, we escaped the motel we’ve been living in (I guess also technically a staycation of sorts…)…
