Welcome to another Ultimate Coffee Date! If all is going well, I should be in Mongolia camping, riding horses, and learning to do horseback archery! <3 (Here’s to hoping I’ll have a spot of reception to be able to link up…)
Ultimate Coffee Date: August 2026

Sushi is growing like a weed. I think he’s 8 lbs already and he’s only ~4.5 months old!?! It’s looking like he’s gonna be a ginormous boy!

Not all the emails have been all-work though! One of my patients wrote me a poem (inspired by my current travels) — it brought me great joy!
If we were having coffee/tea today, I’d tell you that…I went to my first dance festival (for bachata/salsa!) last month and it was a lot of fun! So much to learn, so many workshops. I think I packed in 20 hours of dancing into 2.5 days, so my feet definitely hated me by the end of it. (Not as much as I thought they would though, but yay for super comfy dance shoes!)

I managed to get this on the plane without being stopped!

If we were having coffee/tea today, I’d tell you that…I found an online video game orchestra that I’m hoping to do recordings for later on this year! :] (Getting to solo Clair Obscur last month made me really miss music and I’d love to have it be a part of my life again! <3)

Okay, Sushi really is big!!! I’m trying to remember how much Sylvie weighed at that age… I know she was less than 5 pounds, because they wanted her to be 5 pounds before they gave her the rabies shot and we had to wait a little. He’s going to be a big boy!
Enjoy your vacation! It sounds epic. And I love the poem your patient wrote!
You deserve to enjoy your hard earned vacation! Have the best time the next few weeks! We have some fun travel ahead this month as well
Sushi is so adorable and precious. I hope you have the best time on your trip!
I don’t really have any plans for August.
Busy busy busy!! I hope your vacay gives you some quality rest & relaxation. Enjoy!
Sushiiii! What a cutie pie!
Girl, you have the most amazing life! i have to admit that I fangirl a little when I see your adventures pop up!
Umm, your epic adventures sound so so amazing. Hope you’re enjoying every minute and not reading too many blogs/comments right now :) (May be hard if you have an arrow in your hand!) Hopefully you got some rest on the plane!
