August was a month of family time and jaunts with friends. I was lucky enough to visit the cutest little town of Kingston TWICE in one month. Which also means I had two experiences at the Mossback Cafe. That’s a whole nother post though, so I’ll get back to that later. I don’t know if…

Tickets Booked!
Oh man — I struggle to find the right words to express the excitement I feel when international flights are booked. Do you get that same ball of excitement and joy in your tummy, too?? We’re now confirmed for an adventure in the south of France, coastal Spain, Barcelona, and Madrid late this fall. A…
The Stones!
We’re in AZ for the rescheduled Rolling Stones concert. Whew, it’s HOT here!! Fortunately we’ve had ample time in the pool and a/c, so we could fully enjoy some quality time with family here in the desert. We’re excited for music with friends tonight and S. Rad is super stoked on seeing the Stones live…
WA for the summer!
Growing up in the sunshine and warm desert living of Arizona, I don’t think I ever considered Washington state to be a place I may reside. But I also didn’t think I’d marry an adorable guy I’d met in the 5th grade. Never know what the future may hold, right?!? On our trek north from…

And that’s a wrap!
I’ve been working in the Oakland Federal Courthouse for the past 4+ weeks on a trial that is now at the mercy of the jury. Fingers crossed it goes our way!! I write this as I sit in a cafe near the train station awaiting my train ride home. And I’ll tell ya, this feeling…
Giving Thanks
Full week ahead of work for both S Rad and I, so I’ve been thinking of how on Thursday I will transition the continued mode of giving we are in (i.e. work, serving others 🙂 to a mode of giving thanks to ourselves in the form of peaceful, downtime together as a family, even if…
Fear: Friend or Foe?

Friday Faves, 4.0
It may simply be waves Or the rhythmic sound against the shore As I look out upon the ocean My heart seems to grow more and more Apparently the children’s literature class I suffered through took has provided me some poetry skills?!? Albeit juvenile and completely undeveloped, there may be poet potential within me. Oh,…
