On Saturday night, the night of the elevator breakdown, we stayed in for multiple reasons. Ryan had been fighting a migraine all day and after the 15+ flight stair climb, he was out for the count. He gets a migraine once about every 4 months and, oddly enough, I didn’t know they were migraines until this past one because he always calls them “Pirate Eye” because his left eye shuts. Because of a migraine. Duh, Nina.
So, since Ryan had a pirate eye and all, we tuckled into bed super early, giving me the opportunity to read Emphasis Added without interruption. Emphasis Added is a blog I was introduced to by a lovely woman I work out with at Equinox. The author is her daughter and seems to be every bit as fabulous as her mom.
I am love, love, LOVING digging into this blog. I think the best bloggers/writers are the ones that 1) make you go “Me too!” or 2) make you go “Awesome! I want to try that!”. This blog definitely elicits both responses from me, particularly in the realms of fashion and family.
You know how in “Eat, Pray, Love”, Liz is looking for “her word”? I think Emphasis Added and its author’s word is bold. Bold in how much she loves her family and husband, bold in the fun things she does, bold in fashion (love “head-to-toe posts), bold in the mistakes and seasons she moves past. I enjoy this blog very much for this reason; it makes me want to be just a little more bold.
Starting right now.
