It was another night embracing spontaneity!

The truth is I have never been a big fan of comedy. I find a lot of it rooted in shame and cruelty.

But last week, I discovered a comedian I really enjoy! As I was doing my “research” about her, I learned she is on tour. And she is in Buffalo this week. And tickets for all the shows were sold out.

We have very limited time to bake Friday night and Saturday morning, so systems and processes are really important to us. We look for ways to save time without impacting our quality standards.

It’s wild how dichotomous life can be.

The past 24 hours have been some of the hardest, heart wrenching I have had in a very, very long time.

And also, I experienced something on my bucket list and did it confidently and comfortably by myself - something I am not sure I ever could have done in the past.

Early this morning, I stopped in to the East Ave. Wegmans. I don’t go there often as it’s not super close to where I live, but I had an appointment and went to grab a limited item.

I asked where to find it at the Service Desk and was directed to a person restocking the item near the checkout lanes.

We chatted for a few moments while I shopped.

I have this thing that I don’t talk about much.

It’s called lymphedema.

I have the primary kind and it’s kinda rare.

I picked up this gem in 2020 when I was in a pretty low spot based on a very high recommendation from a friend.

It’s about cultivating our creative selves.

Welp, it had to happen.

While out-and-about recently, I have interacted with a number of people who are new to their jobs.

I know this because they have each told me. Unprompted.
