Our party of 3 travelled internationally for two weeks with a carryon (#TravelPro) and backpack for each person. Amazingly, I did not wear all the clothes that I brought. It was one of the least stressful travel experiences. We did do laundry. Do you think that you could do it?
I don’t wear much makeup but I do have a lip gloss obsession. Living less than 5 minutes from an Ulta and a Sephora is a daily struggle of self control. Today they won.
Enjoyed my evening with Nikole Hannah-Jones, the Pulitzer Prize winning creator of the 1619 Project. I read the book, listened to the audiobook, and watched series on Hulu so it was a treat. It was an evening well spent. #1619project#ganttgolden
I just finished The Situation Room by George Stephanopoulos. It explores history of the Situation Room from President Kennedy through President Biden. Reading about key historical events through interviews with folks who were “in the room where it happened” is fascinating.
I work on the 18th floor of an office building. The window washers are here today. Hearing them bumping against the windows as they do their job gives me great perspective when I want to complain about mine.
Renewed my library card today. It expired due to three years of inactivity. I’ve been listening to audiobooks or buying since 2020. My avid reader heart who has had a library card since age 5 was excited to be back in the library card game.
