Should we just switch to Feel Good Monday? It doesn’t have quite the same ring, does it? Previously, I wrote: It’s a little staycation day for me! We’re headed to an early afternoon wedding, so I just took the whole day off: slept in, had a latte a la dada, walked Bob around Town Lake…

Feel Good BIRTHDAY!
Because 39-year-olds can do whatever they want with their own blogs. It’s hard to describe the feeling of freedom, unmitigated joy, and peaceful ease driving through the mountains brought me. I like a road trip. I drove through boring, brown Texas and flat, long New Mexico until I hit the mountains just south of the…
feel good friday 081123 | eff this week friday 081123
It’s really a toss-up. Was it frustrating and ridiculous? Yes. Was last weekend one of my favorites in a long time? Also yes. Was this work week a hellscape? Yes. Was it also incredible for learning, communication, and growth? Also yes. Am I grateful for all of it? Yes. Is it hard to be grateful?…
