Rachel! Where to even begin with this. First of all, I could spend the rest of my day just following all these fun links and rabbit trails, so thank you for that, but mostly I just want to say YESYESYES to showing up, no caveats needed, and putting words out into the world. It matters. You did it. Cheering you on!

For the record I totally noticed but in a “hmmm haven’t seen anything from Rachel in a while. Bet she’s doing something cool” kinda way. Glad you’re back!

I mean, obviously I loved this. It was like an invisible string tying you to me.

Also, Neidy and I were JUST talking about this whole working-mom-with-middle-aged-kids-life and what do you MEAN they don't go to bed at 7 pm anymore? And they have some sort of practice/game/recital/meet until 9 pm? And then they want to TALK? What happened to my EVENINGS?! Which is to say: right there with you. My newsletter has "monthly" in its actual name which lolol at the me who named that. We had great intentions. Happy to hear from you forever and always.

I missed you! And while I’m not usually big on celebs I love Andrew Garfield. I was very into the chicken shop date he had with Amelia and then Elmo got involved and everyone was messing with us and now he apparently is dating someone else so. Whew. Happy to chat more about this, is what I’m saying. Glad you’re back. 💛
