The week/ weekend: This is a bit of a weird week, as I have just one week home sandwiched in between 2 weeks away. I was rather exhausted this past weekend after Nashville! I was glad to hear on a call yesterday that I was not alone. My boss said she took super long naps… Continue reading Sandwich week, fall stuff, etc.

End of September
Here we are, somehow 1 day away from the end of September! I read all the time management things and I think about this topic a lot, yet I still can't seem to figure out how to get time to slow down. (Though in other ways, September actually has simultaneously felt moderately long? I don't… Continue reading End of September
Night out + dog training
I have been feeling bummed lately that I just can't keep up in the blogosphere.... I know it's okay, but it's still a disappointment. I love this blogging community and I love writing here, but work has been SO BUSY. Mornings and evenings and in-betweens always seem so frequently spoken for, too! Argh. Anyway, I… Continue reading Night out + dog training
The week
Argh, somehow a whole week has passed yet again since I've posted. 😦 This was a good week, though! It felt quite full, but I felt like for the most part, the pieces fit together decently well. (Well, besides any blogging windows, I guess.) I really tried to more intentionally PLAN the week (more than… Continue reading The week
Freaky Friday 5
(I have nothing spooky or freaky to share in this post, besides deciding to title it "Freaky Friday" because it's Friday the 13th. 😆) 1- IT'S BEEN A WEEK. Outside of work, it's actually been a nice week in many ways. 🟡 I went to both of Asher's VB games this week (Monday and Wednesday)… Continue reading Freaky Friday 5
An astute comment
On my post the other day about feeling stretched thin and like I don't have a lot of margin in my days, a very astute commenter named Margot said this: When I read this, I had one of those, DUH! moments. I feel like she really hit the nail on the head. A lot of… Continue reading An astute comment
Week updates and Friday Fashion #2
Recent Updates: 🔷 Friday night soccer! Last Friday were Ethan's first games of the season. He's basically on both JV AND Varsity, so being a holiday weekend, I cut out early from work to make it ~40 minutes across town to his 3:45 pm JV game (where he had an assist + a goal, yay!)… Continue reading Week updates and Friday Fashion #2
Checking in, low margin, a typical day
Whew, margin has felt low this week! Didn't mean to not post for like 6 days. The school year is off to the races now- Asher started on Tuesday, so now both are back. Does anyone recall how I talked about how the boys doing school sports this fall instead of club sports = more… Continue reading Checking in, low margin, a typical day
Friday food and fashion
Food: We had a pretty solid (for us) week of meals! More planned out/ legit meals than some weeks...😄 We had: shrimp tacos, mexican rice, black beans ate out one night w/ Ivan's mom... air fryer chicken w/ leftover rice/beans (or in my case, I made it into a salad) cream of potato and bacon… Continue reading Friday food and fashion
Switching up cardio again + current workout schedule
If you've been reading a while, you'll know cardio and I have a complicated relationship. I've tried dabbling getting back into running twice this year, and neither time stuck more than about ~2 weeks (if that). 😩 I've had varying levels of success with Emkfit dance videos on Youtube. They're fun, short (~20 min) and… Continue reading Switching up cardio again + current workout schedule
