Someday Is Today

We're back this week with a look back on the summer. What a year it's been! Now that summer is coming to an end (which by the way...did we actually HAVE summer? Summer....I need my money back!!), Mack and I sit down to reminisce on our memorable moments from the past 2 months...our adventures, trials, tribulations..and most importantly LESSONS LEARNED.
Of course, or should I say per usual, this is a 2 part-er. In this episode, we reminisce on our time from the end of May to our family reunion weekend over the 4th of July. We’ll close out the remainder of the summer on the next episode.
We discuss:
1. Our trip to Houston to celebrate my sister's birthday, and share highlights from the stops made along the way, including a detour to visit friends in Denver and Dallas. Thank God for good friends! The topic of the episode is: What about your friends...and family. 🙂 Just typing this makes me want to dedicate the next week to #TLC
2. Flexibility!! One thing for sure is that between Mack and myself, I'm the more spontaneous one. And the need to be spontaneous can be challenging when married to someone who likes to plan things out. How do we as a family manage such differences of approach...without growing resentful of each other. And how to continue living out loud, while negotiating and balancing the need for spontaneity with proper planning. 🤷🏿
3. We also touch on the balance between doing you vs. bending to do what your partner. Ultimately we explore when you do you and when you must go together. The quote: "If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together" seems appropriate here.
As always, check us out on all podcast platforms...and YouTube. 🤗🤗🤗

I am excited about this one. This week, Mack and I catch up with our good friend, Foluso Gbadamosi. If you don't know Foluso...you better ask about her! 😁🤣.

Hard to believe we're embarking on the 100th day of quarantining, but no complaints here. I'm staying grateful and counting my blessings....1 by 1. I'm thankful for health, good weather, family and friends. Now more than ever, it's important to take our health (physical and mental) very seriously...particularly given the reduction in social interactions we're all experiencing, as well as the trauma of watching people get killed on camera.
