You kept a huge secret from us on our last trip to Mexico in 2023. This time, you wanted to talk about it. I’m so sorry your husband asked for a divorce. I’m even sorrier that he was having ...


Back from The Great College Girls Trip of 2025 and have so many things to write about that I don’t even know where to start. So I thought I’d spend a little more time organizing my thoughts. Y...


Morning. Like, really early morning. I got up before 3am this morning to get on this flight to Phoenix. Yes, it’s finally that time - Girls Trip Time! Just call us The Sedona Six. We are all fl...

Day 150 - Hermiting

Good morning. A couple of things about my entry yesterday. (1) When I said I didn’t feel like working anymore and that I was going to make today (Friday) an easy day, I meant it. I have been s...


I’ve been absent from writing because of this dumb project that’s taken up 98% of my headspace for the last week and a half. It even consumed my whole Memorial Day. Why do I let myself get this ...


The writing is on the wall that the company I work for is imploding. Maybe not completely, but things are clearly not going well - especially hearing things from Kitty Cat. That poor woman has t...


Okay. After a week of being out of it, it’s time to get back on the horse and get moving. I had a successful morning routine (workout, coffee, dressed and ready, etc.), already had a video cal...


For some reason, the last week just took a toll on me. Here’s the recap: Sunday: was Mother’s Day. Dropped Martini off at doggy daycare 15 minutes later than I wanted (7:15am instead of 7 on th...

Day 132 - First Day!

Super busy day! I need to recap my weekend, including Mother’s Day, but I’m heading out in about 5 minutes to my first day of pickleball league, and I just got nervous! I don’t really remember ...

Day 128 - Prepping

Things I am preparing for this morning: My Workout: I made the mistake of logging into work while I was sipping my early morning coffee yesterday. The day turned chaotic, so I was only able to ...


Good Monday Morning! Protein coffee and supplements to start the day. Next up, journal writing, a meditation/manifestation session, workout, shower, werk. Head Cat is OOO all week, so that me...


Time Flies So Fast: It’s already MAY!! How did that happen? I feel like just a few days ago I was thinking about how I’d have a new job before I left for the Indonesia trip with Head Cat…and now...


Hello from a coffee spot in the shopping district close to my home. The weather is beautiful and it’s going to be a gorgeous Saturday evening - I imagine there will be lots of dates happening in...


Yesterday, Kitty Cat asked me to attend a meeting with a consulting company that essentially does what I do. I know she was curious about the tariff situation and maybe if they could help us wit...


I’ve been having this recurring dream. About once a month, I dream that I’m having an alcoholic beverage of some sort. Like, I am in a social situation where I say, ok! I can have a drink, and t...

Day 113 - Blink

I’m back from my 4-day trip to my former city. It was great, and it was only four days, but it WORE. ME. OUT. Why? I have no idea. Was it because I was sleeping in someone else’s bed? Was it ...

Day 111 - Weekend Recap

Good Monday morning! Coming to you live on a beautiful day from the patio of a breakfast place that I love! If there’s something I’ve gotten pretty good at with myself after all of these medical...

Day 109 - Hot Oncologist

Thanks for all the good luck notes on my last entry. Oncology visit went well. All of my blood reports came back while I waited - except, of course, for the tumor marker numbers because they tak...


Sitting in a coffee shop in [former city] as I got into town early. It’s a 3-hour drive if you don’t stop at all, but normally I stop every hour to stretch my legs and let Martini potty (and me ...

Day 107 - On Safety

Lately, I’ve been thinking about what it means to feel safe. One definition of the word safety is as follows: Safety is a fundamental human need, recognized as a core element of Maslow’s Hierar...


Morning. Just out of my meeting with my agent in China. What a disaster these tariffs are. I may end up getting tariffed right out of a job! Fucking motherfucking Trump can suck it right now. ...

Day 105 - It Grows on You

Mentally prepping for today. Maybe this is a little thing, but it’s not so little to me. I gotta get my head right about yet another spot found on my skin. The derm was able to squeeze me in t...

Day 104 - The Best Part

Monday again. Sipping coffee and getting ready for the week ahead. So here we go with the morning routine… I’ve finished my latest 6-week weight training program, so today I’m starting this o...


I met “the girls” at the thrift warehouse at our designated time of 3:30 yesterday (see previous entry). They were a little late, as expected, and I was a little early per usual. So I’d already ...


Daffo-dills! Ahahaha! Good morning, glories! It’s Saturday. It’s 6:30am and the birdies are chirping, and I’m ALIVE again today. I have a lot of things going on today, and my mind is on refres...
