Feel Good Friday 012315 | Puppy Love

This Friday, I feel grateful for Denali. You knew that was coming. But lately I’ve had this irrational fear that she’s going to die and LEAVE ME and I COULDN’T POSSIBLY HANDLE THAT. This dawg has been with me through 10 homes in 3 states in the past 8 years. She’s been through hot Texas summers,…

Gainzzzz (or, Thanks Power Athlete HQ!)

If progress motivates … I am at full motivation. About 2.5 months ago, I started working out at a “regular gym” (ie, not a CrossFit gym), following Power Athlete’s CrossFit Football Amateur programming pretty closely (my roommate is CFFB/Power Athlete staff and amazing at life/lifting, so this is helpful). The main reasons: I want to…

Feel Good Friday 011615 | Girlfriends

I spent 52 hours in Aspen last weekend, and I left feeling so incredibly grateful, refreshed, and grounded. I got to spend amazing quality time with some of my best girlfriends through pants-less couch time, fancy dinners, basement bars, hot tubs, lifts, bowl hiking, glasses of champagne, and skiing. We talked, laughed, commiserated, giggled, dreamed, schemed, flirted, danced, gave…

Feel Good Friday 010915 | Grateful for This Body

Feel Good Friday is a gratitude list I’ve written once a week for OVER THREE YEARS (170+- posts). It’s time for a format change—I’ll key in on one thing each week I’m incredibly grateful for, and end each post with a list if necessary. Join me and leave anything you are grateful for in the comments! The first…

A Signature Look

A signature look is necessary. I have style for sure, but it’s not signature. 2015 = signature style. I would like my overall signature look to be skinny pants, great shoes, and a fabulous blazer. Fun tanks/tees hide underneath. On (California) winter weekends, we modify to jeans or yoga pants, a backless tee, hoodie, and sneaks…

Feel Good Friday 010215 | 2015

The first Feel Good Friday of 2015! 2014 was a year of steadiness, of stability, of growth, of peace, and patience. In 2014, I visited Aspen, Austin, Leakey (Texas), New Orleans (twice!), Denver, Puerto Rico, Scotland, Ireland, Hawaii, Sonoma wine country, Big Sur, and Park City. I made new friends, I reconnected with old ones. I…

Feel Good Friday 122614

Feel Good Friday is a gratitude list I write each Friday—it gives me an opportunity to practice thankfulness as well as share some fun pictures in what has become kind of a week recap. That said, I am currently considering how to do it in 2015 … is this the best format? What else could…

Hello Digit

All I want for Christmas is to save more money (in direct contrast with my wishlist, perhaps). I’m not one of those budget-ers, despite enjoying the tough love in the You Need a Budget blog (I haven’t used the software) and employing the budgeting tool in Mint.com—which I do use to look at all my finances…
