SUNDAY COFFEE LETTERS: MARCH 29TH (#4) (Patreon)

Dear Patreons, this week has been a bit of a whirlwind!

This week’s Saturday Coffee Letter is coming to you a day late—we’re calling it “Saturday-ish” this time around. The reason? Sickness has been running rampant through the Percival house, and the word of the week has definitely been laundry.

With two sick toddlers, it’s been a long few days filled with midnight bedding changes and the 4am “up-chuck” clean-up crew (also known as dad on duty). It’s been exhausting, but we made it through. Oliver is no longer getting sick at night, and Isaac is finally starting to get his energy back—which is such a relief. Of course, now it seems like it might be mom and dad’s turn… so we’ll see how that goes.

Even with all of that going on, we still managed to get out of the house and head downtown to the mall. We picked up the second-to-last Arirang vinyl, the Living Legends edition, and the Life of a Showgirl CD. That turned into an immediate Taylor-filled drive home, and ever since we’ve been fully on a Life of a Showgirl / Eras Tour music kick.

Kyle also managed to sneak in a much-needed night out with the guys—good company, a few drinks, and catching up with a friend he hadn’t seen in a long time. Honestly, after a week like this, that kind of reset was definitely deserved.

All in all, it’s been a messy, exhausting, but still meaningful week. The kind where you’re running on fumes but still find little moments to smile through it.

And again, thank you for your patience with this slightly delayed Saturday Coffee Letter—we’ll be back on track next week (hopefully with a much healthier household).

Before I go, I’d love to hear from you:

How do you usually get through those chaotic, exhausting weeks—and what’s something small that helps you reset?

Until next Saturday (for real this time),
