Waitress: which one?

Me: WHY CANT I HAVE BOTH

I don’t typically care about celebs at award shows, but when I tell you that I need every detail of #famousmisspeaches magical time with her papa Dave Portnoy tonight at the Good Human Awards Gala, I mean every detail. 🍑🐾👑

You know you’ve hit a certain age when you’re scrolling FB, see this person you may know and think their pfp refers to shopping at Aldis.

Really interesting question

This Sunday is the annual Imagine Walk to benefit The Autism Project. This morning, I introduce you to Alex, who has started his own, smaller walk to benefit the cause and be more comfortable doing so. WPRI 12

Day 448

Just before my mom was exhumed last February, I uprooted these flowers from her grave.

I’d planted them for her and they’d grown, despite tough conditions. I had this silly idea that, if they could survive so much change, it was a sign that I could, too — that I could…

I forgot how loud birds are before dawn in the spring. Headed to work out this morning and heard this:

Someone asked a great question about whether it matters that Rhode Island Canine Search and Rescue K9s know my scent during search training. Here’s the response:

Really enjoying a newfound sense of peace these days. 💜

It’s been a little over a year since I started my SAR journey with Rhode Island Canine Search and Rescue, and I can say this quote is true.

We learn about each other’s lives, goals, fears and more, in between training every week to help save other human beings. There’s a certain authenticity found here…
