I called my dad yesterday to tell him I had been thinking about Christmas Eves from my childhood. I realized that some of my happiest memories are of being a little girl at my grandparents’ house, being sent to bed early on Christmas Eve, and knowing the house was full of adults who loved me, all while waiting for the magic of Christmas morning. I could hear them laughing and enjoying each other’s company, and even today, I can imagine no better sound to fall asleep to.
Is there a word, though, for knowing a nostalgic memory can never be revisited? Because telling my dad all of this also made me sad. My grandparents are no longer alive, and I will never be that little girl falling asleep on Christmas Eve again. All I can do now is try to create that same kind of magic for my own kids going forward.

We need a 4-day, 32-hour work week with livable wages.
There is no reason that people need to be working this much.
People need time off to rest and spend with family and friends.

Imagine paying for Netflix every month, and then having to pay when you want to watch a movie, and then getting another Netflix bill 3 months later because one of the actors isn't signed with Netflix so you have to pay them directly.
That'd be stupid...right??
This is a post about health insurance.
The concept of you sitting here letting a temporary emotion bully you, when YOU are the one who decides what emotions mean, how they land, and how long they stay.
And this is why, as a woman, you should do what you want. The moment you let society define you, you’ll spend your whole life shrinking and stretching yourself to fit boxes you were never meant for.
This Thanksgiving, I’m grateful for the people who truly stood by me this year the ones who carried me through my darkest days and celebrated my brightest moments. The ones who showed up, answered every time, and had my back without hesitation. Thank you for being my people.
Not to be that feminist but it is so intriguing to me just how different men & women behave in corporate settings. Women are almost always very 😃😃 !!! No problem!!! So awesome to meet you!! 😃😃 of course!! And you can’t tell if men in corporate America loathe you or not because their demeanors are very dry and matter of fact. Nothing wrong w being matter of fact but women typically overcompensate personality wise to avoid being labeled “bitchy” or “difficult” and men don’t really feel the need to do that so they can just act normal
