Hello friends and Happy Sunday!
I hope you’re entering the end of January feeling happy and productive, still in your January intentions and resolutions. These days feel filled with challenges and beauty, sunshine and chill.
I don’t even know how I’m feeling this week? That’s got to be ok to say… sometimes just the day to day is enough feeling. Right?
Here’s some of the superficial Internet. I didn’t make it, I just listed it for you.
• I distinctly remember saving up my paycheck from my ice cream scooping job in high school so I could buy myself an outfit to wear after prom from Abercrombie and Fitch.

Once when I was in college in Philadelphia a young kid passed by my group of 4 females downtown. He paused, looked at us and said, “excuse me ladies, you all look very pretty today” – then he biked away. I was both shocked and impressed.
