Hypothesis

Funny thing about WFH is that your office is always here and you can work really anytime. So instead of starting off with my reading and then workout and then work, I actually needed to send some...

Bulleted Updates

It’s the end of the workday on Monday already! I owe you some bullets from where I left off on Friday… On Friday, after I got over the whole insurance battle, I went to get my CTA scan and forgo...

Friday F-Ups and Downs**

I wanted to take a quick sec to follow up from my previous entry because I was asked a couple of times what I consider high and low vibrations. Here’s how I put it in a note: To me (and this is a...

August Vibes

Well hello everyone! I’m coming to you live from a cute little park in my former city! I have a doctor appointment in less than an hour, so I need to get going, but I did want to get my 100 words...


Whelp. We’ve gotten through July. What a year it’s been so far! I realize that my year hasn’t been exciting in the sense of being wild and crazy and full of drama (that’s so much fun to read, isn...


Holy schnit! July is nearly over! Today’s word is FOCUS. Yes, I’m writing this entry quite a bit later than I have been recently. I am frustrated because I’ve gotten a little lax in my morning ...


Well, my word for today might as well be GRACE since my daily words are aspirational. I’ve already spilled one GIANT Yeti tumbler full of ice water on my kitchen floor. And if that wasn’t enough...


Well. I’m at the walking pad desk and walking it out again this morning. I’m going to head to the downtown trail again today. I’ve decided that I’m going to give myself a challenge. I’m going to ...


It’s Saturday! The word for today will be PLAN. I slept until nearly 6:30 this morning and my body still feels sluggish. Gotta get it together before leaving on my walk with my friend V. this mor...


Good Friday morning! Today’s word is SUPPORT. I saw a bit of buzz on socials about the Kamala Harris Zoom calls that have been happening this week, and late afternoon yesterday, the link for the ...


Today’s word will be CONTINUE. Anni never called yesterday. She never sent a text telling me she got tied up. I told her that we could talk anytime after 5:30 my time (we are two time zones apart...


Good morning! Today’s word will be PREPARATION. I’m prepping myself for the call today. I think Anni is too, though I can tell she has no clue what I’m about to say to her. Our texts have been li...


Good morning, world! Todays word (s) will be: SUCK IT UP I just went back and reread my Mexico entries from last November. The ones where I was writing about how my one friend, Anni, kept getting...


And all of a sudden, it was Monday! Today’s word is SURPRISE! I don’t know why, but last night I had trouble getting to sleep. So when this morning’s alarm went off, I let myself drift back off f...

July's Volunteer Pop-Up!

So the monthly volunteering continues. I feel like I’m getting closer to finding a volunteer project that is more of a calling for me and right up my alley. A few weeks ago (maybe a couple of mon...


Good morning! I’m going to give you a visual for this morning that may or may not give you the ick, but I find it hilarious: I am writing this entry at my standing desk, essentially in the middl...


Good morning! I slept in an extra hour and a half. It was glorious. I’m making coffee and tea simultaneously. The coffee I will drink immediately. The tea I will put in my travel cup to sip after...


It’s Friday! My word for today is flexibility. It shoulda been my word yesterday, and honestly should be one of my words every day. Yesterday’s progress was hit and miss. Was I fast? Eh, somewh...


Today’s word is going to be SPEED. Yesterday was fine, and meetings were good, but I got sidetracked by some obstacles and it slowed my efficiency down. I want to get shit done FAST today. It’s a...


Work: Well, the big news is that today was Inbox Nazi’s LAST DAY?!! On Friday, he’d rescheduled our team meeting for TODAY instead of our regular Thursday. So before our meeting there was a littl...

July 9 - I Am Home.

Made it back home yesterday afternoon. The two weeks with Mom and Dad were a complete success and I’m really glad I was able to do it (thanks to remote work)! Mom and Dad seemed pleased with the ...

July 5 - Anyone There?

So the 4th of July came and went with little fanfare and much dog trauma. My dog wound up under the bed all night with her thundershirt still wrapped around her tiny body and mom and dad’s dog en...

Prepping for the 4th

Hey, hello again! Still here at Mom and Dad’s place in the lakefront community. I’m dreading tomorrow something fierce (4th of July) because it’s going to be “hotter than blue blazes” as my mom u...

June 29: How It's Going.

Day 6 of my 15-day adventure in eldersitting is coming to a close. It’s been an experience, that’s for sure. I don’t even know if I’ll be able to sum it all up when these 15 days are over. I’m i...
