I know there are a lot of people who want to make the world better but don’t know where to start so just…don’t.
I also know every group I work with that is making the world better is kept afloat by exhausted people who desperately need help.
If you’re in group A, please find an org to help group B

Two hours of yardwork completed at “feels like 103-109” depending on which weather app you believe.
All cleaned up & going to veggmaxx 😂 with my Hoopla Hallmark+ binge pass & check out Lacey Chabert’s series Paris Is Always a Good Idea.

My aunt grew up in a tiny village near the lake & still has a cottage by Fair Haven Beach State Park. So much serenity there & memories of so many good family summer visits.
