Another epic weekend, another time I fail to post Feel Good Friday…
Another epic 4th of July weekend with the second annual Beer/Seltzy Olympiad! Pics on ig. I’m so grateful for the stellar group(s) of friends that jumps in, buys in, anticipates and celebrates this party, and goes HAM when they get here. Grateful for my mankini-wearing co-host, my handsome helpful humanitarian warrior and his base hookups, my mama for some setup assists, and my lil pupper for doing better at this party than she has maybe ever.
Then a pool party serving a lewk from Bora Bora (coverup here, it’s fabulous) and a SUP to Snake Island—who knew THAT existed in the middle of Town Lake, and it’s awesome!
A caveat to the epic weekend? It sure did knock me out for a few days, the stress of it all wreaking havoc on my stomach. Do I have an ulcer? Unclear. By the time this weekend rolled around though, I was grateful to be back at it again with SO many fun things: a home-cooked meal by the handsome helpful humanitarian warrior who got me to eat and truly like green beans, a spontaneous neighborhood walkabout to Hopfield’s (snail dumplings?! yes we’ll try!) with a nightcap at Honeymoon Spirits Lounge, our 9,000th kettlebell swing workout, a very extra pool party, impromptu reheat couples dinner before birthday bar time shenanigans, and finishing Outlander on Sunday.
Part of the stress is that I’m still struggling with Nali—she’s pooped the house every day this week, but she’s still trying to get outside, and she’ll zoom and walk the block. I’ll know when I know, I guess. For now, grateful for this doggie cam recommended by my bro, and incredibly grateful for that skinny, stubborn weirdo dawg.
Part of my journey with her right now is reminding and showing her all the fun times we had.
She LOVED when I took care of horses in Colorado and she had alllll the poop to roll in that she could ever want.
