I LOVE TODAY. I LOVE TODAY!!! I started contemplating getting a basketball hoop for the backyard a couple of days ago as I was thinking about how I spent my days in high school (the last time I had this few responsibilities lol). I researched putting it up on the roof, thinking a portable was…
DID THIS PAST WEEK LAST 100 YEARS (OF SOLITUDE*) OR IS IT JUST ME? How was it only last Friday that we enjoyed a FrontPortraits photo shoot at the MAC**? Did I watch an entire season of Scandal in just three days? Was it really last week in which I read the books I recommended…
Last week I said I wanted to grow all the things, and this past weekend I spent a large amount of my life doing just that—or at least, planting all the things! Should I move on to Square Foot Gardening?? Grateful for: Nali. That pupper is everything awesome in the world. Slackline shenanigans, rock climbing, coffee…
My first art sale! I’m working on an Emotion series, and the first piece from it sold today! To a very important art collector and amazing supporter of my art! Also, I cut my hair even shorter! I asked for “edgier” and that it is. I love it. Now, onto the topics no one can…
With the weather at sunny and 75, I was lucky enough to enjoy baskin’ in the sun in my backyard this week! Very grateful for my house house … host of Sunday night football watching, roaring fires, Monday nights reading books by a fire after a delicious dinner … This week was a tough one.…
011720 // Aspen: 1, Lyssa: 0 I returned from last weekend’s Aspen trip fulfilled with friendship, exhausted, and sicker than I’ve been in a long, long time. Like, sick enough that I fell asleep on the DEN>AUS flight in a middle seat without a neck pillow. Sick enough that I still haven’t eaten solid food,…
THE IRONY!!! My posts this week were pre-scheduled, and couldn’t have been more on-the-money for the daily events of my life. It’s a wild ride over here, folks, and my confidence in myself has immediately been tested. But I’m still confident. And the view is indeed better from the high road, so that is where…
The last friend Christmas party turned into backstage at EDM show… The “slow” week turned into long days and a big presentation at work… The manis from ManiMe continue to impress, transforming how this girl sees nails and nail art… The hilarious texts I get from my friends continue to make me so happy and…
Y’all. The Chisos boots I’m obsessed with are every bit as amazing as I imagined—I got to try them on at their launch last Sunday, and holy Texas are they comfortable. Also, that party was a helluva way to launch a brand, entrepreneurs take note. Friday night’s Key to the Cure gala was also amazing,…
Happy Birthday, Dad! I love you and am so grateful you are my dad—my biggest support and most understanding personal psychotherapist, my yard help and dog-watcher, my football- and car(truck)-loving comrade. Let’s go fishin’! I was meant to be in NYC for most of this week, but an 8.5 hour delayed flight changed those plans,…
