Built in the Back of the Yards. Illini.
Used to direct communications and sports teams. Now I just create stuff and help people and pets as much as I can.
Serving on the board of directors for ‪@plantchicago.bsky.social‬.
This is Topo Chico. I had the honor of adopting him on this day five years ago.

He passed away in April of this year due to brain cancer. I miss him so much every day. What joy and love he brought to my life and to everyone he met.

“Effective leadership.” A refreshing perspective on leading from Josh Johnson. Via @theathletic.com by Jayson Jenks:
Josh Johnson has played for a record number of NFL teams. What has he learned about leadership?
Josh Johnson has started just nine games in his long NFL career. So why do so many NFL teams keep bringing him back?

My Mom.

19 years without her.

25 years with her.

A lifetime of gratitude for her.

I just read this and think you should, too. Resonates for various reasons.
I wrote a post about visiting the last stamp store in Chicago and living a life that’s fun, but worthless. I really like this one, hope you do too. dansinker.com/posts/202…

One of the absolute best humans ever put on Earth.

Even when the spotlight is on her and her amazing achievements and unwavering courage, she shines it on others.

In awe of your awesomeness and strength, Katie.
