It’s a few minutes to midnight on December 31, and I’m not sad to say farewell to 2024. While 2025 may not be promising on a political leadership level, I do hope for peace, joy, love, and laughter. Some financial security wouldn’t go amiss, either!

I’m working to strengthen my practice of gratitude, partly as an antidote to ever-present anxiety. I keep a list of good things that happen. This weekend, it was 73 and sunny in San Diego, and I got take some lovely walks. #goodthings

Here is our festive tree. My husband thinks we have too many ornaments. I say we have barely enough, and we should get more. Whose side are you on?

With my 10-year-old nephew at his first Warriors game. It’s his BIG birthday present. Steph is out with an injury, but we’re still having a good time!

Preface: I have never been a jogger. My exercise is mostly brisk walking, strength training, and a smattering of yoga and Pilates.
And yet. Over the past few weeks, I’ve felt compelled to go faster on my walks. Today, I mixed in many jogging intervals and got my average pace down to 13’40 per mile!

Beautiful day for tide pools! Getting out in nature always helps when I’m feeling crabby.
