That is, I would be grateful for it if I had it. This week has been insane, incredible, intense. Emotional to say the least. And as I turned to my yoga—where I completely lost my shit on the mat one day which I suppose is as good a place as any to lose your mind…
Grateful for this FULL, crazy life. Grateful for friends and family and therapy and Nali running around and a new striped sweater and my crazy employee whatsapping me while I’m at a music festival and Mostly grateful for GEORGE STRAIT.

Heaven. Also Heaven? My parents’ porch. I love that place. I especially love it with my extended family, the Teti fam…
This is a story of allergies. Just kidding, except it is … despite being a native, every spring in Austin the allergies KICK MY ASS. I take my daily allergy meds, use my sinus rinse, take all the dirty hippie immune boosters, drink echinacea tea … and still! I had to take a whole damn…
Not my first though! I always thought I’d get a memorial tattoo of Nali, but then wondered why wait? After months of instagram searching, I finally decided on magical artist Amanda Jo at Tiny Tats, a women-owned and -run studio in Hyde Park here in Austin. Close to my house, close to my heart, and…
