At the same time, it feels inauthentic for me to post as if nothing has happened, even though it is complex and I know I\u2019ll never know the *right* thing to say at times like this. I tend to internalize and pray; it\u2019s how I am and always have been. For what it\u2019s worth, I stand on the side of humanity. For children and families. For innocent lives lost. I\u2019m\u00a0praying for peace.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Hi friends! Happy Friday! I\u2019m writing to ya from the weirdest blog setup I\u2019ve had in a while. Half of the keys on my keyboard stopped working, so I bought this plug-in keyboard. The keys are huge and make a loud sound, but it\u2019s working until I can get to the Apple store for a new Mac. I can\u2019t believe I&#8217;ve had this one for 8 years!<\/p>\n<p>What are you up to this weekend? We have a birthday party and family photos. I still haven\u2019t planned out anyone\u2019s outfits but it should come together on the fly \ud83d\ude09 I\u2019d love to hear what you\u2019re up to!<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s time for the weekly Friday Faves party! This is where I share some of my favorite finds from the week and around the web. I always love to hear about your faves, too, so please shout out something you\u2019re loving in the comments section below.<\/p>\n<h2>Friday Faves 10.13<\/h2>\n<h3>Read, watch, listen:<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cupofjo.com\/2023\/10\/03\/what-has-made-you-laugh-lately-2\/\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">What has made you laugh lately?<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ulFGXnASE4Q\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">This is one of my favorite songs<\/a> to wind down to at the end of the night.

Each designer created a piece based on a poem. They spoke about the meaning behind their designs, how they created them, and received feedback from Tim Gunn. In between the presentations, he answered questions about style, business, and life. It was a great night!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fitnessista.com\/?attachment_id=163197\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-163197 follow noopener noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-163197\" src=\"https:\/\/bestratefinders.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/u-of-a-fashion.jpg\" data-fslightbox=\"gallery1\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Health, fitness, and good eats:<\/h3>\n<p>&#8211;<a href=\"https:\/\/equi.life\/collections\/anniversary-sale?irad=1828813&amp;irmp=357907\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"> EquiLife<\/a> up to 25% off sale is still going strong!
