There's a “before Liz and after Liz” when I describe my creative moments. Before her, I'd sense an idea approaching and, instead of dropping whatever I was doing to write it down, I'd stay in the moment, and the idea would pass by me. Now, the idea matters more. #BeachThoughts

Our second awake window today consisted of climbing onto any surface we could find, surfing from one piece of furniture to the next, and trying to find Spot again. Surprise, surprise, he was in the basket! #WhoReadsThis
