I'm trying to take my coffee outside in the mornings and do my morning pages there. It's just 20 minutes or so, but it makes a big difference.

sometimes I can't believe the difference 20 minutes can make.

Oreos? Fall is the sweetest season for me, because it holds so many cherished memories. When the cool breezes sweep in from the west and the sun dips lower on the horizon, I know fall is on its way. And when it's here, misty mornings give way to brilliant blue days with scarlet sugar maples, yellow ashes, and ever proud evergreens. It all gives way to night skies that are cold as they are dark, and stars that make you stop and look up and pay tribute to loved ones far away.

There's something joyful about Oreos too...maybe it's the fact there are two cookies (chocolate to boot) in one, with frosting on both sides.

first comes poetry, then comes oreos - this is the world i want to live in, always.

Fall is my favorite season, too. In SF the sky is clear and crisp, the visibility is bonkers (Mt Diablo to the east! Farallon Islands hanging out in bold relief 27 miles off shore!). These last days before it gets dark...

I’ve been practicing yoga with an instructor in NYC live via Zoom. He has special instructions about what to wear and how to position your mat so he can see you practice. Getting verbal adjustments re: alignment is amazing and the instructor is such a sweet, happy soul- it’s the closest I’ve felt to being back in a yoga studio since the pandemic started and its made a huge difference in my mood.

I have been: Enjoying the sun on cool breezy days, where I live we don't have many of these days yet so they are a treat. Searching for the best AF ginger beer. Planning vacations that I have no idea when my family will be able to go on (Yellowstone is looking mighty fine). Throwing things out, it feels so so good.

i just deep cleaned my room this week and part of that was clearing out/organizing my desk - my brain feels like it has so much more space!
