Happy Birthday, Childhood Bestie! You’re an incredible leader, friend, and kitten mama! Regymen Grove opened! 45-minute summer HIIT workouts here I come … love it and hate it but mostly hate it. Girls catch up Monday night with a sister stop by! Wednesday open play volleyball and Oakmont Honeymoon Spirit Lounge with a friend of…
The west Texas elopment was perfect. Every breakfast at Aster Marfa was perfect. Meeting Rice alum Roberto leading us to Garza Marfa for his Mimi y Roberto pottery was perfect. The family Sunday celebration brunch-into-hangout was also perfect. Sunday night cheese-and-wine catchup was perfect. My workouts this week were perfect. I hit 4 lifting days,…
When I moved away from Austin, it was noticeable when the airport that felt like home changed: first to Aspen, then to John Wayne. And even when I moved back, it took a bit for ABIA to feel like home. But now it does, again. Still, grateful for my amazing trip to OC to celebrate…
One word, many weeks, a whole lot of wire-brushing: WHEELBARROW. Friends, the before and after of this gem is astounding. Found this wheelbarrow in my great-grandpa’s homestead, and spent a lot of hours soaking, spraying, rubbing, wirebrushing the steel to restore it to its pre-rusty shape; didn’t really touch the wood other than to seal…
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…
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…
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…
Camping in the desert was not nearly as bad as expected… but the company was as great as expected! It felt like—and was—SO MUCH DRIVING, but we did some cool hiking, got to see some beautiful vistas, and getting out of cell service is just always good. I also finally got to see a bit…
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…
“You look happy,” said one of my best friends. You know what? Despite feeling like everything is ‘wrong’ and wild and unsatisfying in my life, I am.
