I can’t keep up with ANYTHING this week. How is a four-day work week not actually a break, just cramming the work of five days into four? (Also this supports my proven theory—as I worked them for three years—that four-day work weeks are just as productive if not more so than five-day works weeks, but I digress.)
Workouts
- What even is a workout? This is a bit of an off week for me but there are bumper plates on the way so soon I will have NO excuse to not bust out some quick power cleans whenever tf I feel like it/can!
- Outdoor Voices is STILL doing free 30-minute workouts 3+ times a week! Sign up here.
To Do
- Listen to the new Sacks and the City podcast!
- My best friend has bothering me to take the full Enneagram test (I did the free one during a wine night…) though it’s pretty clear to everyone that I am solidly an 8. $10 for the real one (I’m doing a workshop on it next week!); free one here.
Daydream Thursday
- Flight deals still abound … and I still have yet to book one. PDX for $29? Unheard of. Nairobi for $500? Half price. One of these days I might actually book something.
- It’s ALMOST CAMPING TIME in Texas!
Shop, shop, shoppin’ away
- Super stoked to join Scoria‘s OMbassador program—just ordered this X-Tall Cork yoga mat that is not only gorgeous but each mat donates 10 meals to kids! Scoria is woman-owned and focuses on play and sparking joy, which obviously speaks to this kid. More to come once I actually get to try the mat, but if you wanna take the risk too and get 10% off while you’re doing it, use code LYSSA10!
- I tried a new sticker manicure kit called Lily and Fox and totally dig it. I recommended the custom-fit ManiMe nails earlier this year, but Lily and Fox is a kabillion times cheaper ($3 a set!!) and so far is staying on my nails as well or better. They are NOT custom-fit, so there’s more filing (use scissors to cut off as much as you can), and if you look too closely they aren’t always the correct width. But at $3 a pop with free, fast shipping, I think it’s a stellar option.
- How cute is this Vote sweater? Even though it annoys some people (embroidery on cashmere), I love Lingua Franca’s aesthetic.
