🥳 A Most Unreliable Narrator ✨ Special Issue #4 It’s the most wonderful time, of the year!

A list of what made me happy in 2024!

Welcome to A Most Unreliable Narrator, the slice-of-life newsletter of GenXer around town, Lisa Rabey. I talk about anything and everything with a bit of swears. I’m glad you’re here.

Happy Holidays Internet!

The world.

*gestures everywhere*

A year or two ago, I started playing with the idea of having a regular occurring thing in my newsletter. I toyed with a few ideas and what stuck was Wonderful Thing. It was my way of saying, “hey, the world is shite right now so why not celebrate it in some small way?”

It’s a struggle to continue to practice grace and gratitude and that was something else Wonderful Thing gave me was to honor those things.
