Now

September 2025 – I learned about and wrote a little piece for What’s in my NOW?

May 2026 – I learned about Derek Sivers’ Now Page, how it inspired so many others to create their own, and decided I’d like to create one, too. Kind of like an About page, but updated more often to share in-the-moment tidbits about what’s being prioritized.

Pondering

  • Currently brainstorming how to celebrate my 50th Birthday! I’m thinking about a long weekend in New Orleans in November (never been, always wanted to). There are so many cool things to do there, though, so I’ll have to be mindful of decision fatigue! đŸ˜‰
  • What is my vibe? Who am I outside of a mama/wife/writer/farmer/Gen-Xer who is no longer defined by my jobby-job? Is there such a thing as a Pivot Coach? I don’t need a Life Coach, but the mid-life pivot is real!

Prioritizing

  • Listening to my body when it whispers (AKA before it screams).
  • Getting the garden and blue corn in the ground. Yes, yes, it’s a little late, but May was a doozie!
  • Writing something, anything, every single day.
