1- January 6th is Dia de los Reyes Magos in Mexico, or Three Kings Day. Aka, the Epiphany. There are a bunch of traditions that go along with this. Sadly, we (or Ivan, since this one is his domain, really) haven't really practiced these much over the years. In Mexico, the "three wise men" deliver… Continue reading Friday 5 (editing- Friday 3)
Good morning! Short on time today, but here's a quick Friday 5 of misc. stuff in my life: 1- I stayed up too late watching the Packer game last night, but it was WORTH IT, with a crazy ending and a win over the Cardinals of 24-21. Being the good empath that I am, my… Continue reading Friday 5
It's been a good week. The vacation day on Tuesday definitely helped, too. Here are 5 random things for this Friday: Cross country is officially over. I mentioned the final two meets were cancelled, which was a HUGE bummer!! But such is life. They had their end of the season fun practice last night and… Continue reading Friday 5: XC, my b-day and good quotes
I haven't done one of these in a long time! Feeling it today, though. 🙂 1- It is fall. Being the fall loving person that I am, I know it's odd I haven't addressed this fact yet on the blog. We are actually having a snap of cooler (but in a lovely, beautiful way, not… Continue reading Friday 5: fall books, XC, meals, WFH & workouts!
5 random things I have either done this week or been thinking about: The Olympics I am greatly looking forward to the Olympics starting next week! Opening ceremonies are Friday, July 23. I am pretty bummed that there won't be any spectators, though!!! After the whole delay thing last summer, I was really hoping, for… Continue reading Friday 5: Random
In no particular order, a random list on a Friday of happenings. I feel a little...tired. Not really sleepy tired, just kind of "end-of-the-week" tired, maybe? Like, I'm not in the mood to try to come up with exactly 5 things to do a cute Friday 5 post. 😉 1- Ethan is scheduled for the… Continue reading Friday List
1- OUR LIBRARY IS RE-OPENING FOR IN-PERSON BROWSING NEXT WEEK!!!!! This is a bigger deal to the kids even than to me. They have been dying to get back in the library. For me, I have a huge list of want-to-read books, so using the holds option has been decent enough. But they love to… Continue reading Friday 5
Today's Friday 5: Favorite quotes of the week! 1- "If you see something beautiful in someone, speak it". LOVE this one. I've been on kind of a private mission to do this as often as I can for a few years now. It feels a little funny at first, but it's such a win-win. The… Continue reading Friday 5: Inspiration
Hey, Friday... welcome. 🙂 This week was kinda "meh" for me. Fine- nothing wrong, really, but my typical schedule was thrown off in one way or another most days + the frigid weather = literally trapped inside (i.e. no walks even! 😦 ). I've just felt a little tired/lazy/unmotivated on the whole and would give… Continue reading Friday 5- my week’s rating + quotes
1- Let's start with the confession. I announced so excitedly that I was going to start IF (intermittent fasting) on 1/15, and my goal was to try it for at least 4 weeks. Well. I didn't make it 4 weeks. I made it 6 days. 🙂 It's not that I really couldn't keep going (the… Continue reading Friday 5: Confession, progressive overload, quotes and more
