When someone says they have a quick question for you it is never going to be an easy response. Ever.

I am so productive on the Amtrak I might start riding it around just to work.

Sadly, summer as a working parent just sucks a lot of the time 😔

If anything, I am glad that the World Cup is bringing attention to the outrageous cost for kids to play competitive soccer in the US.

I have lived in Virginia for 14 years and this is the hottest it has ever felt 😫🥵

I’ve been watching a lot of World Cup games and there are just huge discrepancies with how fouls are being called in the box. Also the US red card tonight was just total rubbish when I’ve been watched at least 7 games and seen wayyyyyyy worse and barely any even yellow cards.

It doesn’t matter what city or town I’m at…the YMCA is a place I have always felt safe, comfortable, and like I fit in no matter what. 💜💜

I got up this morning at 5am to prep for a meeting and then broke my coffee pot and had no caffeine. Then Bluesky wasn’t working so I couldn’t complain to anyone about it.

My child discovered WWE Raw on Netflix and then immediately broke a Queen sized bed doing moves on her stuffed animals.

I’ve said it before but my boring soccer mom RAV 4 sport is an absolute beast in the snow. 🎿 🚙

Not judging but by looking at people’s carts in Wegmans many plan to drink themselves through the snow storm ten fold 😂🤷🏻‍♀️

This week I started burning scented candles at my desk to soothe myself during the work day. I definitely recommend it! A small thing makes a big difference.
Picture of my desk, you can see a bit of the laptop on the right along with a burning candle and a brown cup full of pens, a mini minion figurine, and a mini pop tart figurine.

I don’t really meal prep but I do cook basic fresh-ish stuff and eat leftovers. Doing this seems to create an ungodly amount of dishes, so if I’m not running the dishwasher once a day then I’m probably NOT eating healthy.

I really need to start asking how much people REALLY want to know about the youth soccer landscape in the US before answering simple questions like “so what’s travel soccer like?” with a 20 min breakdown🤣

HBO has made many shows that are so emotionally disturbing to me yet so good I can’t help but finish watching… GoT, Sopranos, and Euphoria for example.

Having a 5th grader has brought back a lot of memories for me and while I didn’t have Taylor Swift to teach me about life, I did have Alanis Morissette… and Sublime😆

Worst thing about hotel rooms is the overly fluffy pillows. Firm bedding pleaaaaaase!

I have found a great method for keeping my white kitchen floor tile clean. First you vacuum, then you mop, then you vacuum again, then you mop again, and then you just keep repeating those steps over and over for the rest of time. 🧽

An 80 year old woman just completed an Ironman and this is what I mean when I say I’m not going to get old. I refuse.

Nothing scares me more than when my 10 year old is pushing the shopping cart behind me…. Especially when I am wearing flip flops. 😱

I try to be a positive person but my cup is definitely half empty when it comes to traffic. I just assume it is going to take me an hour and 20 min to get into DC when it could take 45 min. 🚘

Really happy for all the people in my life having babies, getting married, and moving to new cities. Meanwhile I’m back on the advanced Muay Thai fight team with my trainers from 13 years ago and just planning to train for 8 more years til the kid goes to college and I can have my comeback fight🤣 🥊

Sometimes I think too much about things… like why would a pizza place not make their trash can openings big enough to fit a pizza box??🤷🏻‍♀️ 🍕
