      Partners who do laundry are the best. I hate laundry.

        SAME — and housework, but that’s not his gift. Sadly, it’s not my gift either.

    February 15 – grateful for … my sister (she’s got a birthday today!), coffee, my son’s ‘book’ club which actually turns out to be more of an ‘authors’ club.

    Ooh, love this:

    1.) Yoga

    2.) Lake Street Dive (the soundtrack of my work week)

    3.) Golden Milk for inflammation. Turmeric, a dash of pepper for absorption, nut milk, fresh grated ginger, Dr. Bronner’s Coconut Oil, + local honey = my new favorite afternoon pick-me-up.

    February 21 – grateful for … nonprofit direct mail in my mailbox: a monthly donor recruitment letter from Roots Ethiopia, a great appeal letter from Support our Scholars, a not so great annual fund letter from the Sierra Club (too much stuff in the envelope!)
