From my throne of crumpled tissues. By: Gabriela Yareliz Greetings from the couch, where I sit like a queen surrounded by tissues. It has been a sniffly one. I am slowly regaining my ability to breathe through my nose. My nose is drying up. Bless. Yesterday, was a meaningful Tunnel to Towers. Due to theContinue reading “Hi! Hi!”

A Rainy NYC Saturday
The Olsen twins captured my mood today, on this rainy NYC Saturday. I want to move around but also melt into a soft blanket. I want to scribble in a notebook but also want to start learning a language that has zero familiarity to me. I want to read a stack of books but alsoContinue reading “A Rainy NYC Saturday”
This Week’s Favorites 09.25.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz How is this the last favorites for September 2026? Facts. This week was busy. Left me feeling like Punch in this pic: My wish came true, and it’s SWEATER WEATHER. The wind has it feeling 9F cooler than it is. A dream. I wore fleece, sweaters and a set of light jacketsContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 09.25.26”

A happy Friday morning to you! We are allegedly in for rain and cooler temps, after today. We’ll take it. So done with summer. A closet sweep still awaits me. The week has felt eternal (last week blurred into this week), the weather fluctuated wildly, and we have finally reached the culmination of it. FloridaContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 09.18.26”
Broadax
By: Gabriela Yareliz I was reading the piece on Annie Dillard’s life and recent death. It made me think a lot about writing. About life. How many hours does any of us have left? We spend so much time in unconscious living; engaging in habits and actions we do on autopilot. How much conscious lifeContinue reading “Broadax”
Popped
People love to be helpless. People feel comfortable being assholes. By: Gabriela Yareliz People do a lot without consequence, now. People hide behind their delusions, phone screens, AI slop, and handles and screen names that lend anonymity. People sue others for the decisions they made and responsibility they share.

Hello my fellow journey(wo)men, It’s a rainy morning here in NYC after some hot temperatures this week. The sun was roasting. The rest of us were yearning for fall. I am still wrapping up Nantucket Second Chances; you would have thought that with all of the brutal train delays this week I would have finishedContinue reading “Last Week’s Favorites 09.13.26”
