  I don’t announce my boundaries anymore. I don’t explain them. Don’t justify them. Don’t soften them so they land better. I just… move. Quietly. Consistently. Without asking if it makes sense to anyone else. Because I’m done.  Done with all that negativity and toxicity that some people keep throwing at me.  It didn’t happen all at once.

  I love this backpack!  I’m a tote girl at heart, but for long road trips and vacations, I switch to a roomy white backpack —hands-free, tons of compartments, and it fits my entire soft-luxe survival kit. Here’s everything I actually packed for Vigan and how I keep it all neat. Look at all those compartments Tech & Work Corner Tablets (2) + slim cases — one is my son's. The green one is mine. I bring a tablet for blogging and work.  Logitech Bluetooth keyboard — turns the tablet into a mini laptop when I need to write.
