Hi. How was your weekend? All good around here. I slept in a little bit today. The boys have been at their cousin’s house since Saturday night actually (after Asher’s swim meet), so it’s nice and quiet around here this morning. 😊 I’m kind of in a “list mood” today…maybe my weekly review/ planning has… Continue reading Monday: Highlights, Gratitude and Motivation

An actual swim meet (?!) and 1st ever “Weekly Review”
So far the weekend is feeling much better than the craziness of last week. I had a nice day yesterday, spending the morning with my parents, then some housework/ work in the afternoon and finally in the evening, a big milestone.... Asher had his first "swim meet" since February! (I put quotes because it wasn't an… Continue reading An actual swim meet (?!) and 1st ever “Weekly Review”
Saturday
I felt bad for a while yesterday morning after I hit publish on my blog post. Like I said, I just had woken up feeling tired, overwhelmed from such a busy week and I had a bit of a headache. I felt like my post probably came off as "complain-y" and "whiny", which might have… Continue reading Saturday
Mini WFH rant
Wow, I feel utterly exhausted this morning. This week has felt way too intense with the addition of what felt like 4,329 different appointments mixed in on top of the regular workweek and everything else. I generally dread weeks when I have appointments of any kind, because I just know how they mess up the regular… Continue reading Mini WFH rant
2020 strikes again
Oh, 2020...you really are a pain. At this point in the year, it's sad to say but I'm almost unfazed by weird, random cancellations and things just NOT going according to plan. I mean, what's new, right? I'm supposed to be reporting back about Asher's big open water swim challenge from last night.....but, of course, like… Continue reading 2020 strikes again
Busy Day and Asher’s New Challenge!
I have a busy day ahead of me today. I have an appointment on the far other side of town which will eat up a big chunk of the morning. The boys have a virtual piano lesson at 2 pm (doesn't really affect me since I can still work during that time, but I still need… Continue reading Busy Day and Asher’s New Challenge!
Church: Pandemic-style and Travel Tuesday: Venetian-style
Last night we went to the 6:30 pm Monday night service offered by our church. This is actually only the 2nd time we have been there in person since March. All services had been offered virtually, but they've been back in person too now for a while. I especially wanted to go in person last night… Continue reading Church: Pandemic-style and Travel Tuesday: Venetian-style
Monday Motivation: Own your story
Last week Thursday we had a pizza and movie night- well, only Ivan and I watched the movie since the kids were outside at the neighbor’s house. We rented “Little Women”- I’d been wanting to see it for a long time, the one that came out at the end of 2019.Side note: I think I… Continue reading Monday Motivation: Own your story
People!!
I really hadn't realized it, but we had not seen PEOPLE in a really, really long time. I mean, we have "kind of" seen some people- obviously we now see my parents, we went to a friend's for a bonfire a few weeks ago and I've seen my neighbors out and about. But in terms of… Continue reading People!!
Life is short: Google Cal for the win
Hi August. Where did you come from, you sneaky little bugger?? 😁Seriously though, it feels rather impossible that it's August. Like, 3 months from Halloween? Practically Christmas season??!Apparently time flies for me regardless of whether I'm super busy or super not busy. Correction- I think I always find a way to be "busy". Probably just… Continue reading Life is short: Google Cal for the win
