It's National Dress in Blue Day!

Who knew?! A day dedicated to dressing in blue! Get in uniform!

Happy Friday Friends!!!

 

Happy Newsletter Friday! Welcome to those of you who are reading this for the first time and welcome back to those returning! Let's kick it off with the anticipated poll results!

 

THE POLL RESULTS: 

People always say things like: "You are the jelly to my peanut butter" or "You're the sweet to my salty" or whatever the food combination might be. Given all the combos, there has to be a winner so let's take a look at what y'all thought!

It is clear that there was ONE front runner last week! People really came in hot with a fan favorite and that became our winner. Our winner is... CHOCOLATE-COVERED STRAWBERRIES! That being said, I want to mention I do love a good cheese and cracker moment and pb&j moment. Don't worry, I do fully respect our winner this week though!

OTHER NEWS:

Let the countdown begin. Next Sunday is a big day! We spring forward 1 hour and that means Ms. Sun is out later every day. This is a great day to me because it means that spring is one step closer and warm weather is so so close. I know many people hate losing sleep but, I look at this narrative differently as I know the hardest part of the year is behind me. Next newsletter, the sun will be here longer!! YAY!

 

As mentioned earlier, Nikki Lodeon did go on the other week! I feel like Nikki is becoming herself more and more as time goes by. When I reflect on past performances and creative endeavors, I realize more and more the ways it is helping me grow and learn. I am grateful to be here learning alongside all of you (I know I say it a lot) and to be able to share my creativity with everyone.

Thank you for reading this and if this brought a smile to your day, feel free to forward it on and spread the cheer! Don't forget the impact a little kindness can have. It can create lots of change!

 

'Til next time,

...alex is out
