My cute little screen porch. Favorite place this time of year.

I have to be honest, I really love Mondays. A fresh start, a new to-do list… I am feeling ready, (excited even?) to have a productive week. Anyone else?

I think I’m feeling so good as I am coming off of a mostly offline weekend which was both lovely and necessary. I really got my full Sunday reset yesterday. The house is clean, the laundry is done and put away… I finished a needlepoint project, I read an entire book. Ideal.

This is my first “unfiltered column,” which is just for paid subscribers. A refresher on paid perks can be found here.

In this newsletter:

  • I chose one lucky subscriber and will be sending them some happy mail.

  • Work thoughts / update.

  • Personal thoughts / update.

  • Things I didn’t like this month (the book I DNF’d, a serum that makes me angry).

Every month, my plan is to pick one (US based) paid subscriber and send them a treat. This month’s treat is a good one and went to Martha Gottlieb. (I emailed her yesterday, yay Martha!). There is a full size Augustinus Bader Rich Cream in there (a $300 value - purchased with my own $), the Necessaire body retinol, an ice roller, Earlybird CBD gummies, a mini of one of my favorite fragrances, tons of makeup, the Sol de Janeiro body oil, etc.

Next month, I’m sending someone a NuFACE!

PS - speaking of Earlybird! They gave us a code. This week only. GRACE20 for 20% off. This is my fav CBD thanks to just a little THC, it is like having 2 glasses of wine.
