The Edition: No. 81

Mar 8, 2019

Jump, and you will find out how to unfold your wings as you fall. — Ray Bradbury

Altered. A guide to changing your life every 90-days, because growth and change matter.

Sprung. 40% off at LOFT, code NEWNOW.  This gorgeous “modern raincoat” caught my eye.

Sparkling. How to clean your shower head (because it’s gross).

Contained. Loving these simple, ivory vases from Hearth & Hand.

Questioned. A first time employer’s guide to interviewing potential hires.

Worked. Check out Amazon Fashion’s Work Shop. I picked up this a-line Donna Morgan dress.

Hilarious. A man “figured out” how many tampons a woman will need per year.  See if you can spot the problem with his math.

Sparkled. This unique sequined skirt is everything. Love it.

Utilized. It’s not the productivity tools (Slack, etc.), it’s how you use them.

Summered. Move over Cult Gaia. This beachy tote is the next must-have “blogger bag.”

Fighting Back. Sen. Martha McSally was the first female combat pilot, she was the first woman to lead a squadron, and now, she’s standing up for her fellow airmen by sharing the story of her sexual assault.

Chicken Satay is one of those foods that is always better in a restaurant.  Or is it?  This recipe was so easy.  And in a town where Thai food is almost non-existent, making this at home has become one of my favorite weekend meals.

    One thing the Career Contessa article didn’t include was notifying candidates who didn’t make the final cut. I always send an email to anyone I talked to so they know the process has ended. I’m interviewing for jobs now and, on the other side, I get so annoyed when people can’t take 5 minutes to let me know! Uncertainty is the worst, sending rejection emails is the kind thing to do.

    It’s alarming (but not surprising, I guess) that a man would try to tell women how tampons they need. Still, that article was hilarious and totally made my day.

    Every time a guy posts anything about periods, I roll my eyes so effing hard. It’s baffling how unbelievably clueless they are about periods. Nine periods per year? And one tampon a day? I can’t EVEN!

    LOL! That guy’s tampon estimate amused me nearly as much as the NASA engineers who thought Sally Ride would need 100 tampons for a 7-day space flight!

My dark under eye circles have been the bane of my existence since I was 12. Is the cause lack of sleep? Dehydration? Sinus issues? Stress? Who the hell knows. But there they are, every day, telling the world that I am an exhausted working Mom.

Saw It On Social: The Battle of the Spendy Swimsuits

Sloane loves the pool. She jumps from the deck into the water with a crash, never considering her own safety, only to emerge on the surface, shouting “Again!” The pool is my daughter’s happy place. But no place where I need to wear a swimsuit in public is a happy one for me.

The Mondays: July 22, 2024

The Crowdstrike/Microsoft Meltdown forced me to take a few days off this weekend. No laptop. No billable hours. So we packed Sloane up for a visit to a local llama farm, stopped by the pool, went for coffee, etc. Few things are as funny as watching a 23-month old feed carrots to a ravenous rescue […]
