On My Radar

I’m writing this post from my bed. I never work in bed, but I tweaked my neck/shoulder yesterday!!! When I was in Palm Beach in March, I woke up one morning with a crick in my neck. It didn’t feel good, but I was fine. (I think I slept with a pillow even though I normally do not.) By the end of the day, I couldn’t look left or right or move my neck at all. It took about five days for it to feel better.

Well, I must have had a little injury still lingering. I hold all my tension in my shoulders, and I had a rough meeting this week that left me quite on edge. My neck felt a little weird yesterday morning and then between 9 am, and 10 am it got so bad that I could barely move. (I took the dogs for a walk, and I was drenched in sweat, so gross.) I made a last minute (🙌🏻) chiropractor appointment, and I have another one today, so I hope we get this resolved ASAP. I hate not being able to do anything! I’m literally propped up in bed with a thick towel supporting my neck and a bag of frozen broccoli on my back– a great look.

Here’s what has been on my radar this week:

ONE // What’s Wrong with Me? Absolutely Nothing.

Now and then I get sucked down the black hole that is Ted Talks. I love them and can easily spend hours listening to them. (Sarah Kay’s “If I Should Have a Daughter” is my favorite!) This one is a few years old, but incredible. Despite physical disabilities, Gaby Ury beat the world record of planking at the age of 16. She’s a great public speaker! Take a listen… it’s great Friday inspiration.

TWO //  Celebrities Fangirling

Celebrities, they’re just like us! How cute are these celebrities fangirling over other celebrities? I can’t pick a favorite reaction; they’re all so good.

THREE // Paris Hilton’s W Magazine Interview

Paris Hilton has always fascinated me. Even though her “brand” is to play dumb, I think she knows exactly what she’s doing at all times. She’s positioning herself for a comeback, and I don’t think this is the last we’ll hear of her! (Also, I wouldn’t have said it until I read the article, but literally, all of her fashion choices from the early 2000s are trendy right now.)

FOUR // 360 Degree Rowing

The Washington rowing team put a 360 camera on their boat during a race. It gave me chills to watch it as I sort of miss the sport. Spin the video around so you can get a full picture… it’s pretty awesome.

FIVE // Custom Laser Cut Calligraphy

My friend from high school just launched this amazing Etsy shop featuring laser cut calligraphy. There are a million ways you can decorate with it– and it would be a great baby shower or wedding gift too.

SIX // Dog Mom Anthem

This song is me, GUILTY! I sent it around to a bunch of my dog owner friends. We couldn’t stop laughing!!!! (Great marketing by BarkBox too!)

SEVEN // Dreamy Vet

The dog is adorable, but I think we all know why we’re really watching this video. So hot, right?
