I don’t really feel like writing today. But here I am. I’m not in a bad mood; it has just been a long couple of days. So I thought I’d share some images from this week. Which has been happy but long. V got to play in the rain for the first time. C sent … Continue reading

Small Life, Slow Life: 89/100 {Burned out.}
Sometimes, after so many years of working at lululemon, I can trick myself into thinking I’m an extrovert. I have come a long way in the years since I started there. Prior to my lululemon life, I would regularly need hours each day of total silence, so I could read, write, and recharge my … Continue reading
Small Life, Slow Life: 86/100 {The new iPhone, and the Woolsey Fire.}
I got the new iPhone today. Literally one day after mentioning that I’m happiest when I’m not on my phone. (Sigh.) I’ve been wanting it for a while. Its camera is much better than the camera I had, and besides the fact that I take 10,000 photos of V a year (not exaggerating, there are … Continue reading
Small Life, Slow Life: 81/100 {The conclusion to the cliffhanger. AKA, don’t make a two year-old your flower girl.}
V did not, in fact, make it down the aisle to support her cousin in being co-flower girl. Not even close. Instead, she threw somewhat of a tantrum five minutes before the ceremony about wanting “bee-yannas,” and the nice man working the bar actually ran off for five minutes to bring his own bananas that … Continue reading
Small Life, Slow Life: 80/100 {A cliffhanger.}
The pools are wonderful, the drinks flow uninterrupted, and the days are humid and warm. And I’m super tired of carrying our two year-old all over this huge resort. #firstworldproblems, am I right? She, however, is having the absolute time of her life. Piles of bacon for breakfast. Favorite family members all around. A giant … Continue reading
Small Life, Slow Life: 79/100 {Here in Mexico, but with hearts in California.}
We’re here in Cancún, but our hearts are in California, where many of our loved ones and coworkers have already been evacuated. There are huge fires going on in both northern and Southern California; my sister has been evacuated from the NorCal fire. The Borderline shooting in Thousand Oaks also hit way too close to … Continue reading
Small Life, Slow Life: 76/100 {Needing a recharge + allowing ourselves to be fully seen.}
Two more sleeps until we leave for a tropical vacation. I have been dreaming about this five day trip for 120 days. We are taking V. Which I’m admittedly nervous about, because, lovable as she is…she’s not very relaxing. But C or I are usually chasing her by ourselves, and at least there will be … Continue reading
