Friday Joys

Happy Friday, friends. The sky is bright blue, the last few leaves are rattling on the maple tree in our front yard, and I have Colin Powell's funeral on in the background (the military band is currently playing ABBA as I type this - I love it!).

Weekend | Week 34 in 2021

Welp. It sure was another week, wasn't it?

Today's post will also be super... Continue Reading →

Weekend | Week 33 in 2021

I don't think anyone can say this is a particularly joyful weekend given the state of the world. I wanted to write this post yesterday but couldn't quite bring myself to do it. But of course, the point of this practice is to find joy even when it seems like there isn't any, so here... Continue Reading →
