why do I do this? a priority list

the arrival of the sheep

gratitude, dim cocktails, wrestling sheep, The Odyssey, the Instagram conundrum, Sabrina Carpenter's lyrics, and more!

a film chat with my husband, Chris Marquette!

a very eccentric date, a diary method that actually works, revisiting a favorite book, polo matches, whiskey, and trying to be more fun

Millennial nostalgia, the next generation, + hoping they find something to cringe about

highs and lows, millennial math, too much nutella, a saint to root for, a very MD 4th, then and now, activating bedtime mode

Film Chat: The Testament of Ann Lee w/ Sarah Carter and Katie Marquette

snowball nostalgia, rooster exchange, wedding au pairs, turning left, reckoning with the dead, being known
Mark your calendars

blonde like my horse, telling the dead they're dead, flowers, shaking, needing each other

the testament of Ann Lee, the body, and the End Times

haying, injured rabbits, preschool graduations, horse updates, reading all Clover Stroud's memoirs, and more

motherhood and fear

and co-sleeping and Raffi and other spicy takes
iron infusions, my horse's magic eye, writing the great American novel, accepting the chaos, life notes (back on facebook fyi!)

the questions "Yesteryear" asks and tries to answer

on not writing, getting out of scarcity mentality, and embracing it all

a lunch secret, hating church, is Substack just instagram, jigs and swigs, and a book I loved
