'9 a.m. — I wake up and head to the backyard. C. and I just moved to this apartment from the unit upstairs 2 weeks ago. We are absolutely in love with the backyard down here, even though it's hard to swallow the $450 rent increase.'

6:30 a.m. — I wake up in the beautiful Catskill Mountains in upstate New York. I've been here since Wednesday planning and participating in my team's leadership offsite. It's been hard work, but has been running smoothly, which is a relief since I was tackling logistics.

4 p.m. — Arrive back at the office and say hi to a few people, but don't plan on staying. I've been working enough the last few days and am definitely calling an early Friday. I take the train home in the pouring rain.4:45 p.m. — I get home and excitedly greet my boyfriend, C., and puppy, H. I missed them after being away for three days. C. worked from home today, so we scheme up evening plans while he sends some final emails.

4 p.m. — I forgot there's no service at TJ's and my grocery list won't load. Instead, I panic and buy the entire store. I buy chips, frozen waffles, a six-pack of beer, rice, sun-dried tomatoes, tomato sauce, tomato paste, bread, guacamole, hummus, pre-made salads, salmon, chicken breasts, garlic, onions, squash, ginger, coconut milk, yogurt, shishito peppers, potatoes, tomatoes, bell peppers, lemons, and eggs.

12:30 p.m. — I make myself a salad out of yesterday's groceries and scarf it down while taking a few more quick calls.7 p.m. — I wrap up my work, C. gets home, and I take the dog to the park. 3 p.m. — My day has been busy and productive — four meetings, but also plenty of time to crank out projects. I eat my falafel salad for lunch while taking a video conference meeting... professional! After the call, I head back up to the barista bar for a coffee. I am weirdly intrigued by the woman in front of me's turmeric latte order and I do the same. Very odd choice for this coffee addict, and it tastes a lot like the butter chicken I ate last night.
