While I was glamping, hiking, wine tasting, tandem biking, dancing, exploring, moonlight hiking, taking in views, drinking coffees on porches, loving life, and annoying the hell out of my friends on social media whilst in Sandpoint, Idaho, one of this blog’s and DailyHap‘s biggest supporters died unexpectedly. She was a champion of all things good,…

PO, Two Shoes, and Stars
In my short life, I’ve experienced a lot of death, both of major people in my own life and in my friends’ lives. I don’t know if this is a self-selecting group or odd coincidence. I met this girl not even a year ago, and we were instantly close. She lost her husband two years…
The Lull Is Over | Feel Good Friday 091815
There was this time this late summer, where I had just moved into my place in HB and wasn’t traveling and flag football hadn’t started and my achilles was injured so most working out was out so my weeknights were lazy and my weekends were lazy and I started to wonder if this was what…
Ginger Lynne | Feel Good Friday 091115
I am grateful for Ginger Lynne, the Jeep. She has brought me on countless adventures throughout the beach cities, occasionally inland, one excessively chilly trip to Malibu, and off-roading in the desert only to be challenged by her return to the freeway (toddler temper tantrum). Ginger Lynne stroked my fragile “cool-girl” ego, gave me occasion…

These A-Holes Need to Stop Leaving Me | Feel Good Friday 081415
They left me with sunglasses. Sunglasses that I love and coveted while they wore them, but still, sunnies. Now obviously by a-holes I mean my best friends and by leaving me I mean moving off on their own adventures and overall I mean that I am not bitter or jealous but extremely happy for their success and…
Weekend Adventures | Feel Good Friday 073115
This was my weekend last weekend: And sure, it took me and the dog a little bit to recover from what was supposed to be two nights backpacking covering just 13 miles to two nights backpacking over 20 miles (landslide got in the way), but I think we’re both grateful for the opportunity to go…
Same Old Same | Feel Good Friday 072415
I’m super boringly lucky, right? Like I’m still grateful for my friends and family and dog and body and work and life. Rrrrreat. (or whatever the sound of a record stopping is) Listen, my life is not sunshine and rainbows all the time. But I am trying with all my heart right now to live…
A List of Things I’m Grateful For | Feel Good Friday 071715
I like today’s date, the #17. I am grateful for Nali, and that she wasn’t in the car with me when I got in a lil accident earlier this week, and that everyone involved was okay. I am grateful for some awesome friends. I am grateful for the HB Compound, with neighbors who have my…
Friends That ARE Family (in Tahoe) | Feel Good Friday 071015
There was a moment during my Tahoe trip last weekend for the Fourth of July when Matt, who is basically acting Dad as he was the weekend planner and former Tahoe resident, said, “When we’re on a trip together, we’re family. You take care of your family.” The context doesn’t matter, the point was that us…
