Happy New Year Lovecats! To say that I am happy to leave 2024 behind is putting it lightly, on the other hand, it almost feels like time has just been a complete blur since 2020 and that now, SOMEHOW, we’re finally stepping out of that… maybe it’s just me, but the last 5-10 years have …
Merry Christmas Lovecats! Here today with my annual family photo 😂 and wishing you and yours a wonderful Christmas and happy holiday to whatever you are celebrating! I hope you’re relaxing with loved ones (or at peace by yourself) and taking a well-deserved break from the chaos of the recent holiday months and life in …
Insert all the Ghost movie puns here 😜Last month, in an attempt to get out and try new things in the new town I now reside in, I signed up for a pottery class and it did not disappoint! Redlands Pottery Project is a community pottery studio that just opened this year. It’s quite large …
Happy Monday Lovecats! I hope you had a wonderful weekend! I sure did, which is a first in a long LONG while, and that makes me SO HAPPY! In fact, I’m finding little things that light me up and make me smile much more regularly and that feels like progress. It’s been a rough few …
Hello Lovecats! I hope you’re having a lovely weekend thus far! I am still settling into my new house and my new life and although I feel like I’m blabbing about it on Instagram and Substack and now even YouTube, I’m barely even showing up here, and I want to change that. I keep saying …
Originally published on April 18, 2024 Over the weekend I started reading Rise Above the Story by Karena Kilcoyne and shared an Instagram reel I filmed on Saturday when I was only about 60 pages in. I was excited to start this journey and while I didn’t have huge expectations, I WAS hoping it would …
As many of you know, I’ve been writing and sharing pretty consistently at Substack since February 1st of this year… After about a year and a half of wondering what was next, waiting for my next BIG IDEA and coming up short, I set a goal for myself to write every day at Substack, which …
I had so many wonderful comments and messages on my Instagram reel today that I don’t even really know how to respond… I am speechless-ish. I am sharing this on substack too because I want to make sure everyone sees it… but this will be the only overlap Last Thursday when I returned home from …
I’ve found a certain peace at Substack, a deeper sense of being and writing that I’m enjoying so much and I know many of you have been reading and subscribing over there, and I want to thank you so much for joining me on yet another life journey, as you have for so many years …
Since it’s a brand new year, probably much like many of you, I’ve been thinking a lot about my life, and about hard decisions I have to make and New Year’s resolutions and I decided that rather than writing a list of goals I wanted to accomplish this year or resolutions I wanted to make, …
I took this year for me, to get back to me. I took this year to find myself, to create myself. I took this year to figure out what was next. Although I had the means to do so, it was a HUGE risk in many ways, and I took it anyway. A year later, …
It’s clear to me now that I SEVERELY underestimated the winter storm everyone was going on and on about… you know, the one I poked fun at in my last post, Memories Made in the Coldest Winter, which was exactly 3 weeks ago and the beginning of the storm… and now that title takes on …
Hi Lovecats and Happy November! I’ve got a little life update I’ve been wanting to share with you for the past few weeks but haven’t been able to because my site has been basically broken, but it also seems fitting that I share now, at the beginning of the month, so here goes… I moved. …
It came to us almost by magic, really, like the best things often do… Months ago I received a quiet little text from a good friend about a possible vacancy and opportunity and after much hesitation (on my part) and negotiation that seemingly, spontaneously spawned into a whirlwind of cleaning and readying to open after …
I met Caroline earlier this year when we all started roller skating together… even though I knew of her previously through Desert Sun and for giving the best spray tans on the mountain, it was roller skating that connected us. Caroline has an eye for curating perfectly bohemian fashion, home, and lifestyle goods, and has …
