Uncategorized I’ve been thinking about pace. It’s December 10th… the snow is falling… and I’ve been thinking about pace. Alex and I were looking at our calendar this week — holiday plans, family time, a few gatherings. He loves having things to look forward to. I tend to lean toward quiet days in between.

A little more playful. A little more magical in the kitchen. I picked up my Christmas hat at the market last weekend… couldn’t resist matching it to the apron. December invites that kind of fun. […]
Uncategorized If the pace of your business has slowed down… maybe that’s exactly what’s supposed to happen. If the pace of your business has slowed down… maybe that’s exactly what’s supposed to happen. I’m out walking with Blue this morning, just thinking about the ebb and flow of real estate.

Uncategorized Today didn’t go as planned. Today didn’t go as planned. And honestly… I was being too hard on myself. I’m one of those people who writes a list every morning — not always realistic, but it helps me clear space in my mind. Today, in between appointments, I glanced at that list… and immediately felt the weight of what I hadn’t done. […]
