• I am grateful for this amazing winter weather we have had – or should I say thank you, global warming!
• I am grateful for a large spring project we have cooking – I will fill you in as the timeline becomes clear
• I am grateful for girls’ nights out – I have so much fun – just kidding. I do enjoy my alone time, which means no one is talking during the most crucial moments of a movie or show. It means I can go off menu, and I might get lucky on a weekday

Researchers have discovered a “gender gap” between men and women when it comes to working out—and it favors women, who are not likely to exercise as often.

WHAT’S EATING CALE

“Loudermilk” is a comedy-drama series that follows Sam Loudermilk (played by Ron Livingston), a former music critic and recovering alcoholic who works as a substance abuse counselor in Seattle. Despite having his drinking under control, Loudermilk struggles with his personal life, which remains quite messy. Known for his bad attitude, he often manages to offend everyone around him. However, he shows a somewhat softer side to the few people close to him, including his best friend and sober sponsor, Ben Burns, and his sponsee and unplanned roommate, Claire Wilkes. The show, which ran for three seasons between 2017 and 2020, has been praised for its sharp writing and strong central performance by Ron Livingston. It’s available for streaming on Netflix
