SNOW WEEK! Wow! I don’t remember the last time we had so much snow here in New York. I had a very cozy week. And I read a lot (started and finished the new B.A. Paris book in one day), and worked a lot and just hunkered down. It is weird to think that next winter I will be living in Charleston. I will definitely miss cozy snow days (though not so much the mucky dirty streets afterward!). Today my friend Alex and I are taking a little road trip up to the Hudson area to see Catherine Howe (one of my fav artists) at her studio. Tomorrow I am seeing my niece… other than that, I do not have any plans.
I really like this week’s list of links… it’s one of my favorites in a while. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed putting it together, and that you have a great weekend. ALSO: Carly shared this piece about hitting another pandemic wall and it really resonated for me + made me feel a little less alone? Wanted to share it here too!

Hi Grace! Last week in stories you shared an article from Medium, it opened in the app and then I closed it night, without ready it *facepalm* Could you reshare please? I don’t quite remember what it was about, possibly quarantine fatigue related? Thanks!
Here you go… https://elemental.medium.com/your-surge-capacity-is-depleted-it-s-why-you-feel-awful-de285d542f4c
Oh my goodness, I was feeling a little sad/rough today and the “Good Things” article from Vogue just brightened my whole mood. Thank you for sharing.
Aw I’m so glad!
Wait!? Should I be wearing compression socks?! Tell me more about this!

YAY happy weekend x
