Today I Walked
Today I walked. I went for an afternoon walk. I set out with the intention to take a break from my work, get some exercise in, and grab a cup of coffee. This is not an abnormal part of my routine. About 3 days a week I’ll take a break from my work to either […]
Today I Was Grumpy
Today I was grumpy. I woke up on the wrong side of the bed. I’m typically a cheery, joyful person who wakes up energized and ready for the day, so this was not normal for me. I am the true definition of a morning person. As soon as my eyes open, I am AWAKE. My […]
Today I Practiced Yoga
Today I practiced yoga. I got on the mat and stretched. I’ve attended in-person yoga classes but also practice at home following videos on YouTube as a guide. Each time I get my mat out and press play is a unique experience. Sometimes I’m more focused on mindfulness, sometimes on strength, sometimes on breath, sometimes […]
Today I Went to Disney World
Today I went to Disney World. I spent 48 hours in the “Most Magical Place on Earth.” Most people call Disney World the “Happiest Place on Earth” but that is actually Disneyland’s tagline. I’m not sure why Walt and his team chose a slightly different variation for the Florida parks. Whether you call it the […]
Today I Cheated
Today I cheated. It was cheat day. I don’t have much to say about diet culture that hasn’t already been said. Throughout my life I have followed a few different meal plans to try to manage my symptoms and heal my body. Fortunately or unfortunately, each of these meal plans has helped me in some […]
Today I Published a Book
Today I published a book. I self-published my first devotional book. It was a bizarre combination of one of the most significant things I’ve ever done and a regular, routine day. I woke up and made my morning cup of tea. I sat and read my Bible-In-A-Year reading plan. I made bacon and eggs for […]
Today I Was Myself
Today I was myself. Hannah Rowen Fry. I woke up with the sun around 7am. I made a cup of coffee – an Americano since I prefer espresso. I read one chapter of a book followed by a passage of Scripture and a short devotional. My husband woke up and came to join me with […]
Today I Cried, Part 2
Today I cried. I cried on an airplane. I was flying back home after a week with my 10 month old nephew, and I cried on the plane. If you have known me most of my life, this will not come as a shock to you. I used to cry all the time – with […]
Today I Drank Coffee
Today I drank coffee. I drink coffee almost everyday, actually. Usually espresso. I begin my morning with an Americano most days. I prefer the taste and strength of espresso to coffee. I drink it black, with no cream or sugar. There’s just something soothing about holding a warm cup, sipping a strong and bitter palate […]
Today I Wrote
Today I wrote. I wrote 1,000 words in my first book. I’ve been writing this book for a few months. I began by just getting the story out of my head and onto paper, a very sloppy rough draft. Now I am going back through it and adding in all the details of the stories, […]
