2021-05-14 The Saltgrass Cheeseburger: 1.0 👎🏻

This morning I was cleaning out the top shelf of my refrigerator which is typically a space reserved for leftovers. When I go out to eat I’m rarely able to consume the entire portion of whatever it is I’ve ordered. I also hate to waste food and often live off of leftovers. Many times I’ll…

2021-05-11 All of This Is True.. Or Is It? 😉

This morning I was listening to my “Gear Shifter” playlist—the one I curated with songs that are sure to pump me into a cardio machine mood. One of the songs that came up in the shuffle was Hoodie Allen’s “The Real Thing.” The end of the song is a clip I have to believe is…

2021-05-10 A Kindfull Kind of Mindfulness

Even in low moments when we feel useless or of no value, thoughts of kindness can give us strength. It takes less than 5 minutes to think of an episode of kindness, either that someone has shown to us or that we have shown to someone else. It doesn’t have to be an epic act……

2021-05-09 A Very Shrug-Worthy Sunday

All I want for Mother’s Day is to spend the day with my kids. I was going to add not doing dishes but I don’t even care about that. I just want to have a chill day with my people. I’ve texted my son who is at his dad’s house but he probably won’t be…

2021-05-06 When You Find What Works, Don’t Fight It 🌳

Thirsty Thursday again and date night tonight. A 1-2 combo that aims to satisfy. As it often is, I think I’ve figured some things out this week and feel pretty good about my newest declarations. No more volunteering to do interviews or lead workshops or make any public appearances where I have to speak. I’m…

2021-05-05 Much Ado About the Fate of the Human Race

Being human is weird. Two days ago I felt hopeless, helpless, and pretty pathetic and this morning I woke up looking forward to the day. Two nights ago I told my husband I think I need a counselor or therapist. He told me I don’t. He said that he and I need to communicate more…

May the fourth be with you and with me too. ✌️💜🥝 Dear Diary.. I’m doing ok today. I know you wanted to know that. Dear Diary.. Yesterday was garbage but it’s in the past now so there’s no use lamenting further. So don’t ask. Dear Diary.. Don’t you think we all need to be reminded…
