The One Where… (fill in the blank) I didn’t get the memo to wear black? What would you call this episode of my life? And now? Picture 1 and screenshot 2? There isn’t a day I don’t count my blessings and put my family, friends, and health at the top of this earthly list. Next is work and laughter — especially work that helps people feel better or more themself—whether it’s with their own family or their chosen one. The gifts from Friends even nearly 30 years later still gives me so much hope! I know the world is challenging for so many right now. Banning dictionaries so we can’t look up words like equity, inclusion, diversity, or democracy. Banning books with two mommies or two daddies when love is love and a family who loves is better than any family bred to hate. I never would have thought all these years later that our sweet storyline with TV’s first lesbian wedding would still be helping, but I’m so glad it is. I am grateful for creativity helping lovers win. I’ve not posted anything about Friends since Matty’s passing, but in the intersection of better mental health support for all and making the world a lot better, I pray we all can speak up with and for love, for one another and ourselves. The world is begging for compassion, heart, and more love. What do you feel? PS Thanks to the Friends friend who sent this. I trimmed your name out of respect for your privacy, but if you’d like to share more or let this stand I am grateful for you. You are among thousands and thousands who have dearly shared with me how our producers and writers have helped. We are cheering you on. #always #friends #friendstvshow #friendsfans #lgbtq #instagood #love #instagram #glaadawards #hollywood #women #womensupportingwomen #carol #susan #make #marriage #sweet #loveislove #thankyou #actorlife #be #you #boo

I am in love with my granddaughter! And her phenomenal parents love her to the moon as we all do. The best part of this New Year’s Eve was rocking it in with this precious gift. While I don’t wish to reveal too much I hope you see hope and love in all the new. If you were to give her a blessing for 2024, what would you wish for her? #bibbitybobbityboo #my #pumpkin #grand #daughter #granddaughter #laughter #love #wonder #peace #babysteps #bigdreams #potd #instagood #joy #grateful #tutu #grandma #yourturn #friends #family

Just a little tea, Mummy & Me chat As the Crow Flies (with my daughter Violet & me) to address homesickness and stretchy hearts in this webby world. We answered a few questions from friends, Friends fans, and people who simply want to connect with those they love even more. Should we do this again next week? What would you want to hear, if so? Thanks for letting me know. #unfiltered #chat #getreal #asthecrowflies #acrossthepond #family #friends #instagood #instalive #momlife #kids #offgrid #online #time #love #you @violetgracefink #actress #daughter #ilovemykids
What I looked like when pregnant with my daughter, Ruby, AND had a gorgeous stylist, talented hair and makeup artists to give me a face and pretty hair and a fabulous photographer with a league of artists to light me and then, edit the photos afterwards. Cheers to the team effort! But truth, I’ve always most admired the unmade up women around me, my mom, sister, my best friends and daughters (and son) who are always comfortable in their own skins without the extra. If not brave, they are clear. True beauty in just being. It’s heartbreaking to see how the entertainment world has sold the untenable business to “keep up” with the falsest of realities. I’m not immune. No judgment. I’ve played & still do my best to be my age. (Hello!) Just wish more grace and kindness for all of us—all ages, sizes, and types. #women #aftereffects #womensupportingwomen #beyou #pregnant #mom #workingmom #hollywood #actress #bekind #compassion #losangeles #losangelesmagazine #tv #life #instagood #free #yourself #fox #disney #heddy #fun #friends
Just a little snippet of my day with Mom. 95 and every day she’s upright and laughing is a blessing. Covid is whipping through her facility and by the time we returned from her painful dermatology appt, three more residents had tested positive with Covid. That’s more than 10% of the residents in less than a week so she’s in lockdown again. We’ve been careful. She loves any outing, but she especially loves having picnics in the cozy car where she can people watch. And despite now being legally blind she can see shapes that bring stories and could even see in the reflection of the window ahead of us the cars on the freeway behind us. Not clouds scuttling—cars and trucks! What life she has seen. She wants to remember it all, she says. I am glad she can’t see my eyes well with tears. So many layers of life here and the stories are slipping so we repeat them over and over and over so we can remember—remember the name of the ranch her family owned where she summered and became a sought after high diver for her courage and grace high diving out of the cottonwood trees into the Sacramento River. Remember the first boy who kissed her. Remember this sweater. With me she eats grilled brie, apple, and spinach sandwiches and oatmeal cranberry cookies with a sip of cocoa—delicacies over the shredded and minced foods they feed her to safeguard choking risks. A real sandwich is risky business, but it fuels her spirit as she takes her time reveling in a little tasty freedom. She tries not to finger her new wounds-the injustices of a life in the sun and the freeze & burn of the little cancers from the appointment. She remains positive. Hopeful. Exhausting work today, but she keeps trying. She is tired but doesn’t want to go back. But the meds call. She is brave and stoic and as her mask slips, she hugs tight today. She is grateful for her squirrel friends that she feeds all day long, newly dancing her hands with them now, too. So sweet. She’s grateful for the music and the Hallmark Mystery channel I left for her to listen to. I always cry a little as I drive away to work, but I am so grateful that we have her still. Prayers are always welcome. Thank you. 😘💕
Sweet friends, join my daughter Violet and me tomorrow for a little Mummy & Me time. The definition of As the Crow Flies is the shortest distance between two points, and ours is loving. How we live in these strange, online realities isn’t a show or podcast. It’s a little lunch time chat with family and friends. Join us on Instagram tomorrow. If you follow me on IG you’ll get a notification. ✨💖✨💫 #friends #family #instagood #ilovemykids #momlife #mum #now #mothersanddaughters #life #longdistancerelationship #love #laughter #imissyou #chat #asthecrowflies #hug #instagram #live #instamood #unitedkingdom #usa
Blue loves sand. Blue loves mountains. He loves the ocean, lakes, rivers, creeks, swamps, pastures, trails, and anywhere he can run and play hard. Blue loves snow and ice the best, but today was beach day. I’m inviting a little extra play in my life this weekend. What do you want to do this weekend to feed your soul? #play #exercise #getoutside #adventure #dogsofinstagram #ilove #blue #reelsinstagram #friyay #instagood #letsgo

As the Crow Flies! Haha! Violet and I are going to chat in about an hour live on Instagram and I slipped out for a quick walk and Hello! 🐦⬛You are invited as we invite you, friends, for a tea and talk about how not to feel better (and not feel so homesick) in a webby world. We may answer a few questions. I’ll try not to cry. And we can see if these wings fly. 😘💕✨ 12:30 PM PDT Here ♥️ #friends #family #love #instagood #ilovemykids #crow #longdistancerelationship #online #feelings #vulnerability #real #momlife #daughter #askaquestion #videooftheday #irony #soul #message @janesibbett
Last year at this time, I was packing to explore these caves at the far edge of a glacial flow. I was terrified to go where the temperatures were sometimes -25°, but I knew I HAD to answer the call to explore with our dog Blue and 90% alone. I have followed some wild paths in my life, but even the scariest jumps have given me huge gifts. It was EPIC bliss. Following one’s inner call is one of the hardest to do for so many, but ultimately the most beautiful. Go to my bio for Linktree roots how you can join me online this week and thaw your joyful bliss fire. ✨🙏🏽✨❄️✨ #quantum #soul #adventure
