THIS WEEK’S ROSE AND THORN

Happy Friday! I’ll admit this felt like a super short week as we were on Nantucket through Wednesday but I’m excited for the weekend nonetheless! Our house always looks like a bomb went off after we get back from a trip so it will be nice to have a couple days to get organized again. I’m happy to have a little time in Connecticut before I head back to Nantucket for most of the summer. I hope you all have a great one!

This week’s thorn was getting in precisely zero workouts and feeling a little sluggish after five days of eating ice cream and blueberry muffins. There’s something about Nantucket that makes me want to eat like a five-year-old. ??‍♀️ Will and I talk about getting into a regular routine where we can work out together, but travel always seems to complicate the equation. Do you and your husband/boyfriend/roommate work out together or do you just do it separately? Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

Thankfully there were a lot of roses this week! Any time I get to be on Nantucket is a rose and the fact that Will could be there for all five days made it even more so! But we also celebrated the high school graduation of one of the ABC students my parents take care of and it was so fun to be back at my high school and watch her get her diploma. We will miss her so much next year! And lastly I’ve been really good lately about getting to sleep early and waking up early and it is kind of rocking my world to be honest. I wake up feeling like I’ve already accomplished something, which just leads to great momentum to carry me through the rest of the day. And the biggest bonus is that by the time 9 p.m. rolls around, I’m exhausted and have a way easier time falling asleep. I’m crossing my fingers the new sleep schedule sticks because it’s definitely making me a happier person right now!
