My first art sale! I’m working on an Emotion series, and the first piece from it sold today! To a very important art collector and amazing supporter of my art! Also, I cut my hair even shorter! I asked for “edgier” and that it is. I love it. Now, onto the topics no one can…
With the weather at sunny and 75, I was lucky enough to enjoy baskin’ in the sun in my backyard this week! Very grateful for my house house … host of Sunday night football watching, roaring fires, Monday nights reading books by a fire after a delicious dinner … This week was a tough one.…
011720 // Aspen: 1, Lyssa: 0 I returned from last weekend’s Aspen trip fulfilled with friendship, exhausted, and sicker than I’ve been in a long, long time. Like, sick enough that I fell asleep on the DEN>AUS flight in a middle seat without a neck pillow. Sick enough that I still haven’t eaten solid food,…
THE IRONY!!! My posts this week were pre-scheduled, and couldn’t have been more on-the-money for the daily events of my life. It’s a wild ride over here, folks, and my confidence in myself has immediately been tested. But I’m still confident. And the view is indeed better from the high road, so that is where…
The last friend Christmas party turned into backstage at EDM show… The “slow” week turned into long days and a big presentation at work… The manis from ManiMe continue to impress, transforming how this girl sees nails and nail art… The hilarious texts I get from my friends continue to make me so happy and…
Y’all. The Chisos boots I’m obsessed with are every bit as amazing as I imagined—I got to try them on at their launch last Sunday, and holy Texas are they comfortable. Also, that party was a helluva way to launch a brand, entrepreneurs take note. Friday night’s Key to the Cure gala was also amazing,…
Happy Birthday, Dad! I love you and am so grateful you are my dad—my biggest support and most understanding personal psychotherapist, my yard help and dog-watcher, my football- and car(truck)-loving comrade. Let’s go fishin’! I was meant to be in NYC for most of this week, but an 8.5 hour delayed flight changed those plans,…
Like my old neighbor in Aspen who woke up every morning, walked out onto his balcony, and sighed “Just another terrible day in paradise!”, so it is about adventuring with my friends. Honest question: Does everyone have it this good with their friends? Like, every trip we—whatever combination of my friends that “we” includes—take is…
Phew… the heath scare for Nali was real, and terrifying, and while better, we’re not out of the woods yet. I love that dawg with my whole heart and am so grateful for her and the family—and friends, last minute, with tears—who love her and me and her and me. Dr. Tim Julien at Paz…
This is the season to be in Texas. 70 degrees. A lil bit of rain (that I might not realize is coming and might bike to the gym and might get caught in), some quick storms, and lots of crisp, cool sunshine. Perfect for Town Lake walks with a 13-year-old pup. I am so grateful…
