Do you ever have a week where you accomplished a lot, but after reflecting on the week, it feels like you didn’t do jack squat? I know I knocked off so many things on my to-do list, but there is still a heaping pile of items on another list of unimaginable proportions. There is an incredible...

To not talk about the sun this week feels wrong on so many levels, and I hope there is more sun for me to babble about in the future. This leaves me with a chance to talk about Silicon Valley Bank briefly. There are very few times I encounter the convergence of wine and tech, but both of my...

Remember how I bragged about the 60+ degree weather last week for my birthday? Talk about a sharp contrast with it being 29 out this morning, but it didn’t stop me from getting outside. It also didn’t stop a sister and brother from playing basketball this morning while I was walking Globgor. As...

This past week I celebrated another trip around the sun, and every year, I look forward to it because, for some strange reason, the sun seems to pop its head up around this time every year. I am currently sitting in the car during ballet practice with the sunroof open, getting a few sun rays on...

Do you watch the Tour de France? If so, for the time trials, cyclists start at the top of a ramp to get an excellent rolling start before hauling patootski the remainder of the time. After coming back from Palm Springs last week, I feel like my time trial is still in full gear, and not exactly...
