I hold myself to very high standards and when I make a mistake or slip up I am extremely hard on myself. I start to think negatively. “Ugh. Why did you do that? You should know better. Now people are going to think you’re not good at your job. How could you be so stupid?!”…

Today I made ice cream for the first time. I had always wanted to make it and was even given a beautiful ice cream maker for Christmas, but for some reason I just never got around to doing it. Now that I’ve been taking a hiatus from social media, I have time to focus on…

I had a bird day today. You’ll understand the pun after reading this. I woke up this morning feeling refreshed. I’ve been getting to bed earlier and feeling better for it. My plan was to catch the 12:20 ferry over to Seattle to have lunch and go thrift shopping with Ali ( one of my…
