this week #15
It’s a beautiful week here in Arlington and I am overjoyed. It gets downright chilly overnight, people are putting up more Halloween decorations, and I put pumpkin whipped cream in my coffee this morning. Can’t really complain over here. Now that it properly feels like fall, I am feeling myself get more excited about all… Continue reading

this week #14
Happy Friday! I hope you had a good week. This feels like the perfect weekend to do a Halloween craft or bake a fall-themed snack or dessert. I don’t think I’ve shared this here, but I hired a coach to get me through the Richmond Marathon and then to train me for MMT again next… Continue reading

focusing can be hard
Happy October, everyone! It’s officially spooky season and I am loving it. Lots of gray and rain here (I think from Hurricane Helene) but nothing major at all. On Monday I worked from home and sat at my desk with the windows open. It was cool out, the light wasn’t too harsh, and I steadily… Continue reading

This Week: Hello, September!

I cannot believe it’s already September! August felt long and short all at once, but don’t all months feel that way? Here in Arlington we’ve had a brief break in the humid, summery weather and I think we’re all holding our breaths in hopes that the cooler temps will stick around. Regardless, it’s exciting that… Continue reading

On Bikini Bodies

This was the first summer that I ever consistently wore a bikini. I wore it to the pool, I wore it to the beach, and I did my best to do so confidently and without hesitation. Sometimes, when deciding between my nice one piece and the bikini, I could feel myself begin a small spiral. … Continue reading
