When the world turns ugly, I just turn and look at you.

I’ve been sidelined by a stubborn spring cold lately. It’s lingering just long enough to throw off a whole week. My biggest downfall is that as soon as I feel a tiny bit better, I push too hard... and end up right back in bed the next day (classic). The only thing that’s given me almost instant relief is a hot bath with epsom salts. But what other remedies or rituals do you swear by when you're under the weather? I’m all ears (and tissues 🤧)

• Quick Wins to Boost Your Freelance Income This Month. I’ve been seeing a lot of VIP days from freelancer friends… 🤩 

• Binge-watching shows and movies at work. Catch me every afternoon with a sitcom rerun on the background. 📺️ 

• Volunteer Grandpas. Treat yourself to an afternoon tear jerker. 👴 

• What We Remember About High School. I will tell you I’ve had a recurring dream since graduating 15+ years ago that I can’t remember my locker combination 🏫 

• Bug Sucker Thing. My 5yo can’t walk outside without getting mosquito bites, and then he scratches until he bleeds. This tool FOR REAL stops bites from itching if you suck them right away. I also used to spend summers looking like I had chicken pox so this thing feels like a miracle. 🪲 

• Fair Play Game. I’ve seen some free digital versions of this tool, but I think the visual of how the piles of responsibilities are spilt between partners would add extra punch. 🧹 

• Are You Too Online? We all just want someone to give us an answer, and that answer is probably yes. 🖥️ 

• Miracase. I got a new phone and needed a case that was heavy duty (but not too thick) and would also let me use a magnet charger. I bought 6-7 options and this was the winner. I liked that it also protects the screen and camera lens.
