Howdy. Happy Friday.

Howdy. Happy Friday.

Last Monday I told you the oil is received, not made. The good stuff arrives on its own. Our job is mostly to show up and catch it.

Then I spent this week trying to make it instead. As much as I could.

As fast as I could.

I am 100% reader-supported.

This is the sixth thing I have put out in six days. Including today. I am diagnosing the…

Howdy. Happy Monday.

So about last week’s media fast. Lasted about two days. Then I went back to routine. Solo parenting last week. We camped. We had a tea party. Went swimming then burgers and ice cream.

I felt the pull the whole time. The phone. The feeds. The reflex. I did not conquer it. I just got better at noticing it.

The Drop

On Friday they declassi…

I almost didn’t do them.

Before I told you about any of this, I sat down and tried it myself. First Monday. Alarm went off at 5:15 and the Accuser was already awake.

You write all day and night. You don’t need this.
