As kids gear up to go back to school in a few weeks during the most intense time most of us have ever lived through, I wanted to find a way to support the teachers who are both risking their health and doing the invaluable work of educating our children during the COVID era.
I recently learned that many teachers not only have to buy most of their classroom supplies but also have to supply their own PPE.
There hasn't been a lot of great news coming out of the summer of 2020 but on a very superficial level, I have finally mastered my summer hair care routine so I'm going to go ahead and call that a win.
I have not blow dried it since March but am able to make it look presentable (when I want to which isn't very often lately!) in a matter of minutes.
It's been almost a full year since we moved into our house and the living room is finally finished! I'm so glad that we took our time with this space, adding to it slowly until it was just right.
Our goal for the room was elevated, colorful, and fun. But not fussy. A space that is both pretty to look at but easy to live in.
Not seeing my girlfriends in quarantine has felt like a big loss. They're my people, my sounding boards, they help me through bouts of anxiety, we lift each other up, we laugh, and we have fun together.
Since the weather warmed up, we've been doing socially distanced dinners in backyards and the beach which has been really nice.
