MONDAY : wake up @ 7:50. eat cereal and check email, twitter & blogs. drive to a 9am Bar Method class. get through it, but just barely. stop at Trader Joe's to buy fruit & greek yogurt. drive home. start the coffee machine and hop in the shower. get dressed, drink coffee and look over today's to-do list. it's short; with Paul gone, I worked all weekend. respond to emails and comments. cook eggs for lunch. sort of a scramble plus bread. messy but satisfying. decide to drive up to Carlsbad to pick up some envelopes from Paper Source. stop by Athropologie, Urban Outfitters and Lululemon in addition to Paper Source. resist buying a pair of green jeans at Anthro, find nothing at Urban and score on some sale items at Lulu. drive home. remember that I hate the drive to Carlsbad. check & respond to emails while snacking on watermelon. take a one hour nap. (have I mentioned I worked all weekend?) video chat with Paul in Mississippi. am in a very odd mood. work for a few hours on a photo album project. (I'll be sharing soon.) cook dinner : potatoes & a spinach salad. eat dinner while watching season two of Arrested Development on netflix. open a bottle of wine. keep watching Arrested. decide to get started on this post.

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.

Thank you so much for dropping by.
