Hello!

I’m back! 

Though I know it’s probably only my family members that are missing these blog posts, but I’m happy to be back. 

The past few weeks have been all the things. A whirlwind, preparation for life changes, another year around the sun, all the emotions my heart can handle, and various forms of therapy. 

I was going to try to do a recap, but that feels complicated so I’m going to just stick to what’s on my mind right now. This morning. 

I am sitting at Dollop typing this up. It’s been a while since I’ve been here. Primarily because I wasn’t doing drop-off and/or pick-up for Ishu because of my back.

I swore this back injury wasn’t going to improve and I guess the doctor, the resident (my husband), and the physical therapist (who all have much more expertise than I do) were all correct. I am a different human being right now than I was last week. God bless physical therapy, time, and Tylenol. 

I am so happy to be back IN my life after weeks of being on house arrest. 

Feeling grateful for so so much this week. 

Perfectly timed therapy. 

A happy kid at drop-off. 

This iced soy latte. 

Dinner with Ishu’s teachers last night. 

A few solid nights of sleep. 

This upcoming weekend where Ankur isn’t working. A trip to Costco and a pizza tasting party on the agenda. 🙂 

Beautiful air quality once again. 

The new Threads app (which is giving me all the early Twitter vibes right now). 

A mama-and-me Yoga class that Vanessa is running and made me feel so good yesterday. 

Starbucks’ new frozen pineapple passionfruit lemonade. 

My mom, dad, and brother-in-love have all booked their tickets to come out here in August and I’m so happy about it. 

Being able to walk around. 

Having a kid who asks me, “Mama, is your back okay?” because he wants mama to drop him off to school. 

Marco Polo and being connected to friends and family.

Just all the things. 

There are an abundance of things to be thankful for. 

And I feel it so deeply this morning. 

That’s all for now. 

I’ll be back again on Monday. 🙂
