Today was my last summer Friday (keen, wail) and I spent it at the beach. This’ll be my last trip there for the season, but I might try to get there in September. That all depends on work. This is…
Friday 5: Everything in its place
Happy Friday! This week is my summer Friday, but it wasn’t supposed to be. Fun fact: the Big!Work!Upgrade! that was supposed to launch yesterday has been pushed to September. I was planning on forgoing my Summer Friday today to work…

Friday 5: Touched by your presents, dear
Happy Friday, friends! This morning we ate breakfast out and hit the library. And then I crafted for a little bit, worked on the Friday crossword (the streak is in peril), and here I am. Blogging the Friday 5. Today’s…
Friday 5: Mental health again

Friday 5: RE:
Time for some lunchtime blogging! I worked for about 5 hours last Sunday, so this workweek officially is 6 days long yet feels 10 days long. This lunch break is an hour long but feels 5 minutes long. Rude. Here’s…
Friday 5: Aca-scuse me?
Hello and happy Friday, friends! I write to you while camped on the sofa in waves of pain. Today is Nephew A’s SEVENTH birthday! Can you even believe this? I cannot. And the lovely Kristen and my brother-who-does-not-read-my-blog rented a…
