Challenge from Jess. Thanks, dude.
Yesterday I...wore a blue dress...learned how to make a webpage...drank way too much @ the 9-0.
Today I...regretted the 9-0 drinking...made it to yoga...watched two episodes of Project Runway...laughed really hard with the girls.
Tomorrow I...will work the phones at the Admission Center...will try to make it to the gym...will find Robbie a date for his invite...will probably end up at the 9-0.
Have noticed that since I started keeping a blog people like to tell me things. Things that they realize about themselves or their life. It might be because they feel guilty knowing so much about me and so they want to share. Or it might be because they think I will appreciate it because I do so much personal evaluation.
But whatever the reason, I get to hear other people's thoughts. And I like it.
And I have been sitting here for ten minutes trying to articulate what I like about it. But I cannot. It is just cool. Cool to see understanding. Cool to see reflection. Cool to see that people are thinking about the WHY behind their actions. Cool to see that people are thinking.
Wanted to say thanks for sharing. And thanks for reading. And thanks, Paul, for your card. Made me smile.
Road Rage Elise.
Like Malibu Barbie. Except not.
My name is Elise Blaha Cripe. I live in Northern California with my husband and our two daughters.
I make stuff like it's my job.
In October 2019, my book about getting stuff done, Big Dreams, Daily Joys hit bookstores everywhere. For almost ten years, this blog was where I shared (daily!) general life musings, insight into being a small business owner and the occasional craft project. I have closed comments, but feel free to email me at elise[@]elisejoy.com if you have any questions about a post you see here.
If you're new here, I invite you to browse the archives, read my small business story or start with some of my favorite things to write about, DIY home decor & goal-setting. You can also listen to my motivational speech about the power of making bold statements.
Still looking for more content? Listen to my creative podcast, take one of my eCourses or subscribe to my newsletter.
