And these dog sledding photos are incredible. “Like the dogs, I never gave up. And I was adept at checkpoints, the camps or villages along the way where teams could rest and resupply. I could churn out tasks: making straw beds for the dogs, taking off their booties, lighting the methanol cooker, melting ice, thawing meat, turning out stews, hiding the dogs under blankets, massaging their muscles… Checkpoints are the places where most Mushers waste time, even if their dogs are fast: The sleeping bag’s very tempting, and the snow-covered Velcro of the booties sticks to itself when your hands get cold (NYTimes gift link).

Midge says on a beautiful weekend: “I’m throwing a menopause party for myself! This will be my actual 365th day without menstruation, so I invited three dozen women over for cake and champagne. The theme is black polka dots, because I associate this period of my life with periods. I tear up over having them in my house — coworkers, best friends, my Pilates instructor, my current and former boss, my book. group, former PTA friends – and meeting them to stand in front of all the women I love and admire who will be a part of my next chapter.
Faith says this about something I love: “I love when I see any adult in the world without kids eating ice cream. It makes me so happy, like, yes, treat yourself! Your younger self will think you’re living your best life eating ice cream whenever you want.”
