modern love

Monday, January 24, 2011

I love reading this column Modern Love.


I was struck by these words today and I can't stop thinking about them...


"I tried to remember that no one is my property and neither am I theirs, and so I should just enjoy the time we spend together, because in the end it’s our collected experiences that add up to a rich and fulfilling life. I tried to tell myself that I’m young, that this is the time to be casual, careless, lighthearted and fun; don’t ruin it".

my sister

Sunday, September 12, 2010

I just got a package from my sister for my birthday filled with the most delicious brownies everrrrrr. I love her so much I can't even tell you. She makes me laugh the hardest and love the most. This series of pictures was taken after we had a fit of giggles and she fell off my bed into a nook. She was stuck upside for a good 10 minutes before I could help her out.

the grumps

Monday, June 14, 2010

Sometimes I get the grumps..meaning I have a meltdown, or get very stressed out leading to yelling and generally not being a functional person. This usually happens when I over commit/schedule myself and feel in response completely overwhelmed. Fortunately I have an amazing, wonderful and beautiful dearest and bestest friend Natalie who consistently gives me the BEST seriously the BESTEST advice. One day when I was feeling like the girl above Natalie wrote me a little note and provided some goodies that I thought was the sweetest and most thoughtful thing ever (she's just like that..can you tell by my gushing how much I adore this woman!?)! I'd like to share some quotes from that I continue to look back on whenever I'm feeling down..

"Tara, You are my favorite. Feeling shitty is so random...But hey, it happens. C'arrive. There are four things that always, without fail, make me feel less shitty when I feel...shitty...

1. Having super smooth and short nails.
2. Having the best chapstick ever, and thus non-chapped lips.
3. Taking an obscenely long shower and then slathering lotion all over my body. (is this awkward?) (this ALREADY made me laugh and feel better as I was reading!!!)
4. Drinking a hot cup of tea and relaxing with a book/magazine. (Total lie. I drink coffee and watch Bridget Jones. But tea is better for you, blah blah blah, DONC, tea it is) (Natalie is like sooo funny and we have a ritual of getting iced coffee together that borders on obsession).

...the note continues...anyway these things make me feel SO much better too! I don't know what it is but Natalie is sooo good at breaking things down... She is a super smart, lovely person all around!! I now practice these every time I'm feeling blehbity bleh and have added a couple of rituals of my own..

5. Blast some music and dance out whatever Im feeling preferably in a goofy fashion.
6. Looking through old pictures and remembering all the funny/silly/amazing times and places that I took them.
7. Calling a friend (aka Natalie) and chatting away realizing hey--life isn't that bad and tomorrow is another day.
8. Snuggling with some sort of furry animal. 

What do you do to make your self de-stress and feel better? The thing that Natalie made me realize is everyone gets stressed and grumpy at times, the key is to know how to make yourself calm down and feel better. I just love that lady! 

Besos!

Chub is back in LA which means the entire Daly clan is back under one roof yet again. Although sometimes we want to kill each other it really is fun to have all of us together. We mostly laugh alot and eat waaaay too much. This week has brought exciting and fun changes for me--a new part time job (with Skirball Cultural Center) that Im sooo pumped about!! 

Besides that Christine is coming to visit from Northern California and I'm SO happy! 

Hope your weekend is fun and festive!! We have plans to eat, party, go to a Strawberry Festival, look at cool art, cook and shop!

kiwis

Sunday, March 14, 2010

I miss my kiwis! As some of you know I love to practice my New Zealand accent on the regular (ahem cousin twins). I was lucky enough to meet some wonderful kiwi friends to chat with and they didn't mind (too much) when I tried to speak kiwi! 

Cort, Hilary and Tim

Anyway, I found this poster I thought was very cute and thought I'd share with all my New Zilund enthusiasts:


Besos !
