By: Gabriela Yareliz The week is coming to an end. Nothing like a Friday. I continued my The Core 21-day challenge, and I am getting ready to go on a solid morning walk before the sun starts roasting us. I am excited to start Sarah Dessen’s new book! Spent some time starting to deep cleanContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 06.19.26”

This Week’s Favs 06.13.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz It was a busy week. I walked a lot more than usual, which felt nice. I have been doing The Core’s 21-Day Program. I am on day eight. I think lifting heavier weights has made me extra sleepy at night. Tired to the bone. It’s officially summer. There is no way theContinue reading “This Week’s Favs 06.13.26”
Play
By: Gabriela Yareliz “How often do you go on vacation?” the sales associate asked us dutifully. When we told him this was the only one in recent history, I saw a mix of shock and slight pity flash across his face. It triggered a small wave of shame that I decided to shake off quickly.Continue reading “Play”
Game Four
This is a shallow report… brace yourself. By: Gabriela Yareliz Listen, we can talk about how Carolina brought game. They beat the VGK with the Staal goal and the wild Ehlers empty-netter from the other side’s boards. Rod Brind’Amour was wide-eyed, and Dominique Ducharme for VGK, with the white hair and beard, had crazy eyesContinue reading “Game Four”

It was a total snooze fest until the last half of the second period, where theContinue reading “Game Three”
Game Two

You know what happens when it’s tied— you sigh andContinue reading “Game Two”
Perfect
“Perfectionism is self-abuse of the highest order.” Dr. Anne Wilson Schaef By: Gabriela Yareliz Consideration for others is important. Doing your best— also so important. Keys to a life well-lived. You know what sucks and needs to be disposed of? Perfectionism. At times, it’s engrained in us as children from external sources. Sometimes, it’s personalityContinue reading “Perfect”
Love Yours
By: Gabriela Yareliz “Love yours,” was spray painted in red on a lamppost as cursive graffiti. An excellent reminder to love your people and also, it reminded me of Emma Grede’s book, Start With Yourself. As we start the week, I want us to focus on how we are actively showing love around us, butContinue reading “Love Yours”
Baby Jesus
“Oh my word, we have one more. I didn’t see that one. Someone left us another baby Jesus!” Lady with the blue eyeshadow at the Citrus Welcome Center in Ocala By: Gabriela Yareliz Everywhere we went, we found baby Jesuses. At the citrus center, restaurants, coffee shops, and even our captain on the glass bottomContinue reading “Baby Jesus”
