Happy Friday! It’s been a sad few days… there is a matcha shortage at Starbucks because of the supply chain issues. Luckily I already have matcha powder at home, and bought more in case this becomes a nationwide toilet paper crisis. Still, it’s not the same as getting it at Starbucks. Like making your own salad vs. a restaurant; not the same. Please respect my privacy during this difficult time. (more…)

Happy Friday and happy Halloween! Are you dressing up for Halloween this year? I will not dressing up…..unless I get invited last minute to a party. For me personally, I think it’s fun to dress up in a costume, especially for a party, but I don’t particularly feel the need to. It’s not really my thing but I will do it and have fun. And when I do dress up it’s mostly generic costumes like a witch where I already have a black dress or a girl scout and I can wear my old vest. I think I have only purchased a costume twice in my adult life. Actually I enjoy making my own costume. One year I went as a Tiffany’s box and had more fun crafting the costume than wearing it — wearing a box in a bar is not easy. Anyway, I may not be dressing up for Halloween but I sure do enjoy seeing all of my friend’s kids, and my nieces, dressed up! Kids dressed up as Ted Lasso is perhaps my favorite costume I have seen. It’s funny and so cute!! (more…)

Happy Friday! Are you still feeling the effects of Mercury in retrograde? To be honest I do not fully understand what it means, and have never felt anything when people talk about it. However, this time around I felt it and am still feeling the aftermath days after it ended. After googling, I found it’s called the “shadow period”; it can linger for weeks prior and after Mercury retrograde. Sounds fun. Obviously nothing earth shattering has happened, just your typical Mercury retrograde affecting my technology and a few miscommunications with work. Hopefully the lingering shadow period will end soon for me. (more…)

Happy Friday! This was one of those weeks where everything was coming at me, yet I maintained in high spirits. By the miracle of God, I did not falter. Growth. It was a week of blessings, family, and recovery. God, life, my body was telling me to slow down and relax. To take care of myself first and foremost. (more…)
