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…

Flowers and Foods | Feel Good Friday 072420
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…
Tired, Slow, in a Hot Summer | Feel Good Friday 071720
PELOTON!!! That is what I am most grateful for this week. I have ridden it every day since we got it! … made much better by sharing the bike with the neighbros, and the group in Cali cheering me on, working out with me, and sending hilarious group texts. I am tired, it’s been a…
COVID Checklist Week 18
This week’s convo is much more calm than previous weeks. Workouts PELOTON IS HERE. I have taken 3 rides. I HATE it every time during, and love it every time I get off. Cardio, yo! I love BFree’s Digital Studio. Trying a new workout via Zoom called 1WRKOUT. It utilizes “time under tension” to the hypnotic…
COVID Checklist Week 17
Hard to believe it’s been four months of this. Workouts I WAS BORN TOO LATE!! Women’s flag football to become a collegiate sport … so far only 15 schools have signed on, but more are in the works. BFree’s Digital Studio is up and running, and I took my first class with the lovely Shelby…
COVID Checklist Week 16
Y’all this is wild. Texas was open, now it’s closing again … I have tried to read as much as I can, do what I think is right, and continue to be more or less isolated in my house. But I just can’t hold it in any longer: this is complete fear mongering or safety…
But Saturday | Feel Good Friday 062620
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…
Covid Checklist Week 14
Cases are going up here in Austin, possibly because of reopening, or mass gatherings like protests, but from a pure numbers standpoint are nowhere near other states’ levels—our highest daily case number is 161 (check the data out here). I’m continuing to be cautious but practical. I also spent the last 10 days on a…
Soul Happy | Feel Good Friday 060520
Just a pure and simple gratitude list, because that’s what we all need right now. Pink Salt canned rosé in so many ways… a Friday afternoon, a river float, a possibility… First Guadalupe River float of the summer. Perfect weather, cold river, cannypack, what a day! My body is inherently good and powerful and for…
Resources / COVID Checklist Week 12
With a public blog, I feel pressure to share something about the racism and subsequent protests going on in our world right now, rather than simply sharing links that might make your individual life better. But, while compassion is the goal and support is the action, equality is my fight but I acknowledge that this…
