for a real time update. I still have 2 days left to recap from the Nova Scotia trip (well, 1 full day plus our departure day, which still included some fun bits!), but that is not happening today. I do have a couple minutes though, so I thought I'd just pop on quickly for a… Continue reading Interrupting your regularly scheduled programming…
Saturday, October 11 Saturday was Sarah's first full day in Nova Scotia, and of course Elisabeth had Plans for us!! I feel like this day ended up being the perfect mish-mash day, or, as noted in the title, an "amazing fall smorgasbord". I LOVE these types of days on vacation. Of course, it can be… Continue reading Day 4 Nova Scotia: an amazing fall smorgasbord!
Friday, October 10 I slept quite gloriously in my King sized bed and woke up on Friday to shower and get ready in my beautiful room. We had some loose plans in the morning, but the big ticket plan was picking up SHU from the airport!! And then, assuming her travel all went smoothly, we’d… Continue reading Day 3 Nova Scotia! SHU + Peggy’s Cove (and more)
Thursday, October 9 After a good night’s sleep, I woke up, showered and got ready for our day’s adventures, while Elisabeth shuttled kids out the door and off to school. We had a light breakfast (leftover homemade biscuit and peanut butter and tea for me) and Elisabeth took care of a few things on her… Continue reading Day 2: Nova Scotia! Cape Split, brewery lunch and more
Ahhhhh, I have been dying to start writing recaps because I’m just bursting to share how incredible these last few days have been, but I have also been just too busy actually EXPERIENCING all of the awesomeness, so… I just haven’t had time! 🙂 Obviously. 🙂 I have a sliver of time right now though… Continue reading Day 1: Nova Scotia!!
Good morning! According to the handy dandy “countdown timer” at the top of my screen courtesy of the United app, I have 28:43 minutes until my next flight starts boarding. As such, I’m currently sitting in a pleasantly uncrowded lounge area eating a surprisingly tasty egg and cheese sandwich with breakfast potatoes. Evidence exhibit A… Continue reading Hi from Newark… it’s happening!
Hi. 🙂 Things have not slowed down but we're in the home stretch now of my in-laws' visit. For me, we're down to 1 day! They don't fly back to Mexico until early Sunday morning, but I leave tomorrow bright and early for Nova Scotia!!! (!!!!!!!!!!!). By the time I get home late Monday night,… Continue reading Final stretch + the weekend
It's been a whole week since I've posted! I have not had much margin and frankly am feeling rather out of sorts, but there's been a lot of good stuff this week, too. I am feeling a need to do a brain dump/ vent session though, so... may I? Things that have me feeling stressed… Continue reading Highs/Lows, the week, etc.
Eek, it's been a little crazy! Last weekend we did sort of a mad rush to get the house cleaned, including the basement rec room/ guest room/ my office/ guest bathroom (which are the spaces that do not normally make it into our every-other-week cleaning routine), in anticipation of my in-laws arriving on Monday. But… Continue reading Thursday updates!
Welp, it's September 20th and I'm just getting around to doing my August recap. Obviously I could skip it, BUT doing it makes 8/8 so far on monthly recaps this year! So I can't break the streak. 😉 Of course the downfall to writing it 20 days after the month ends is that now I… Continue reading August 2025 Recap
GRATEFUL KAE
