Well I've really dropped the ball on my NaBloPoMo quest. Unfortunately, I'll have to admit this is kind of how my personality goes. Once I break the proverbial seal and "screw up" at something, I am way more likely to sort of throw in the towel and be like, "Eh, well, already broke the chain,… Continue reading The day before Thanksgiving

Recap of the week
I missed a day, you guys! I'm a NaBloMoPo drop out. 😅 Just kidding, it's fine. I didn't have time to post during the day yesterday, so I figured I would in the evening. But then evening came and I ended up working late unexpectedly and then dinner and clean up and then it was… Continue reading Recap of the week
Deep thoughts/ not an uplifting post
Sigh, it's been a bit of a deep week over here. Without getting too crazy in the "sharing of personal details" department, there's just been a lot of sad or challenging medical stuff going on in my extended circle right now. First of all, my aunt and godmother passed away yesterday, at the age of… Continue reading Deep thoughts/ not an uplifting post
Monday mood
A little foggy, a little wistful, still partly sunny, beautiful in sort of a sad way. More tomorrow! Daily Gratitude: I am grateful for my eyesight.
Tipping
I have a question. Do you tip at coffee shops? I personally do not actually frequent coffee shops very often, as I do not drink coffee. I drink plain black tea, and it’s hard for me to stomach paying like $4.00 for a tea bag in a cup of hot water. So I go to… Continue reading Tipping
Chipping away
In October I posted about a planning challenge, where I was trying to figure out how to organize and track many upcoming tasks for this holiday season. In that post, I outlined my idea to create a couple of new lists in Google Tasks (namely a November and December list), in addition to my usual… Continue reading Chipping away
Vacation mode
Charlie, at 7:16 a.m. I was heading out of the shower (I was up by 5:30 even on my day off… what can I say) and Ivan was heading into the shower. Charlie thought we were all crazy and settled into my spot to keep sleeping, trying to ignore the lamp Ivan had turned on.… Continue reading Vacation mode
A day!
Ugh, I had a DAY today. Started full of promise: And I ended up feeling like this guy: Ha! A wooden Christmas decoration in my basement that apparently Charlie knocked over… and where did the fuzzy stuff come from?? 🤔 who knows. Not really worth delving into- was some work stuff. Anyway, let’s look on… Continue reading A day!
Late post!
Can't break my NaBloPoMo streak!! Day 12 today. It's 9 pm and we just recently got home from Asher's high school swim team parent/athlete meeting. It was from 7-8:30. There's a brand new head coach, who we met tonight and seems very nice (pretty young/ casual in his hoodie...ha. Probably will be very popular with… Continue reading Late post!
Not ready yet
Well, it's been a full week since I deleted all my social media accounts from my phone. In full disclosure, I reinstalled a couple times to check on a couple of swim team related posts (and a did a quick breeze through other stuff), but overall, it has remained OFF. I just did a little… Continue reading Not ready yet
