Howdy, friends!
It’s Friday and this is where I find myself:
Trying to take some needed space and get myself in order today, so this newsletter will be short! Have you recovered from the post-Halloween-on-a-weekday-hangover yet? Sweet Jesus, that was tough. Hoping you get some time this weekend to put on your comfiest clothes and soak in the daylight, while we still have it. Enjoy looking at the leaves out your window with a cat on your lap. Eat some cinnamon rolls and do a puzzle. And even if your schedule is packed and you don’t have the capacity to lounge it up, we can all still come together to celebrate No-Move-November in our hearts 🧡
Okay, let’s do the treasures!
🍷I find this trend very funny and am absolutely campaigning to go to a wedding in Great Britain after seeing this version. Also it gives big Parks & Rec post-snake juice vibes.
👩🌾We all have (and can act like) that wellness friend that is too intense. Sometimes I am this friend.
🍝This recipe for Tex-Mex chicken spaghetti looks amazing and involves green chiles and lots of cheese! I’m in!
🩻 I spit out my water when I watched this video of an ultrasound tech. If you’ve given birth, tell me it isn’t so spot on.
🦸The wisest KJ Ramsey got sneaky and dropped a SURPRISE BOOK full of prayers and poems for hard moments. It will be available on Jan 17th, but you can pre-order The Book of Common Courage as a Christmas gift for all yourself and all your pals now!
💰We’re talking about paid Christian content and considering whether or not the PMG should have their own museum this week on The Bible Binge! Don’t miss the latest episode!
Best of Elon’s Twitter:
Have treasures of your own from the week? Drop them in the comments below for us all to enjoy! See you soon, pals.
I'm just now getting to the newsletter this week, thanks to a very busy day yesterday that culminated in seeing Lucius in concert last night. It was maybe the most transcendent musical experience of my life? It was so good I think I got saved again.
My coworker who's in her 40s voted for the first time this week. I don't think Greg Abbott understands how motivated people are to get him out of the governor's mansion.
I've never been to an Irish wedding. I have been to one English wedding, which was extremely Christian but still English so there was a glass of wine served with the meal. The wedding was in June, and Brits a) don't believe in air conditioning, and b) are surprised every year when the temperature tops 90 degrees, even though it happens every year. Cut to a bunch of sweaty wedding guests pouring out of the reception and onto the lawn to try to catch any semblance of a breeze between courses.
I’ve had to collect, then parse out into various containers, my four year old’s poop for some lab samples to see if we can’t get to the bottom (ha!) of his reoccurring diarrhea and vomiting. So that was a literal TURD in my week.
But my treasures are that I VOTED today (come on Beto!), and I have no weekend plans (three years for No Move November 🎉🎉🎉)!
