From a colleague meetup to making margaritas to a sun-drenched backyard hang with one of my closest friends, loving seeing her life with her two sons, to a glass of wine on the porch with some parents and allll the deep dish pizza, from Wrigley Field and awesome seats to walking and wandering to incredible pasta at Monteverde, last weekend was awesome. It’s all about the people.
I haven’t spent much time in Chicago but like DC, it’s always held a special allure. Remember my walk down the Lottie’s neighborhood? But riding a Divvy bike through neighborhoods so unlike the ones I grew up in is always a thrill… I can’t wait to go back. Soon.
More gratitudinal things: new truck tires, favorite cousins, mama-in-law-in-law, pre-dinner wine stop-bys, yoga, yoga and wine, yoga and juice, massage, boxing, photo shoot, volleyball, testing, lawyer aunt and uncle, pre-bonus-spending, friends that think alike, work announcements, my team, nali dog, nali’s new short walks just three houses down (that’s being generous) but followed by old lady zoomiez in the front yard, neighbors and neighbros even though I’m getting kicked off the family costco membership, writing this list and publishing it on time … so many wonderful things to be grateful for in my life <3
