Darn it...despite my best intentions to keep blogging briefly and frequently after NaBloPoMo ended, I guess I really didn't. Today is Thursday, December 7th, and it looks like I've only posted 2x since the 1st. Work has been really busy this week. Lots of meetings, a project, and a last minute/ time sensitive "ask" that… Continue reading The past week, (mostly) photo edition

Final post… a day in the life
Day 30 of NaBloPoMo is here, and something strange has happened. I can’t really think of anything to write about today. Surprisingly, throughout these last 30 days, this has not been a problem. Ever! I mean, I’m not saying every post has been profound- nope, not at all. But I just sat here for a… Continue reading Final post… a day in the life
Fuzzy socks win and thoughts on NaBloPoMo
Haven’t shared an OOTD in a while now… I am still attempting to “get dressed” more days than not and unearth some unworn items from my closet. But it’s a little spotty and depends on the day. Yesterday I had a meeting, so I decided to wear “dress pants” to just feel a bit more… Continue reading Fuzzy socks win and thoughts on NaBloPoMo
A very scary dog dream + puppy love
I had a really heart-pounding, scary dream last night. I dreamt that somehow, we were informed that surprise! We didn't actually own Charlie... we were apparently merely fostering him. And the time had now come that we needed to turn him over to his "forever owners". Who were not going to be us. O.M.G. I… Continue reading A very scary dog dream + puppy love
Broken streak, Christmas lights and a fun meet up!
NaBloPoMo Fail: Well, I officially failed. Yesterday, Friday 11/24, I did not post a blog post. DANG IT!!! I made it 23 days in November with a post every single day, and now I failed. The annoying thing is, I totally could have at least done another quick photo-only post or even just a "Hi,… Continue reading Broken streak, Christmas lights and a fun meet up!
Busy Pre-Thanksgiving
Phew, this was a busy day. It went: * 4:55 am wake up * leave home 5:15, Asher to swim by 5:30 am * straight to grocery store by 5:45 am… trying to beat the crowds! It worked. (More on this later but we are doing a sort of phoned in Thanksgiving this year for… Continue reading Busy Pre-Thanksgiving
Vacation Hours + other Tuesday Misc.
1) It’s officially Thanksgiving break. Asher actually has this entire week off! Lucky him. Ethan had school Monday and Tuesday, complete with several tests and quizzes. He’s done now until next Monday. I don’t really have much of a break. I mean, I’m obviously off Thursday, but I didn’t take Friday off. Due to the… Continue reading Vacation Hours + other Tuesday Misc.
Hola from a Mexican wedding
At a wedding tonight for one of Ivan’s friend’s sons! Thoughts: 1) Having fun! 2) I really wish I were a good Latin dancer. 3) Mexican weddings are the same, but also, very different. 🙂 Felicidades a los novios! 🥂
3 Things Thursday: photo edition
Charlie watching Asher walk away from the car on his way to school Outfit of the day: posting keeps me accountable and not in the same leggings/hoodie combo I am tempted to wear on repeat. (Not sure if these OOTD posts are fun or annoying?) Friday night date night moved to Thursday (for various reasons).… Continue reading 3 Things Thursday: photo edition
Broken sleep
So far this week, my sleep schedule has looked like: Monday night: Bed 11:00 Woke up ~4:15 a.m. and couldn't fall back to sleep. Argh. Total= 5 hours, 15 minutes Tuesday night: Wanted to go to bed early, but somehow ended up being awake until 11:15 p.m. (!!) Still not sure exactly what happened. Kids… Continue reading Broken sleep
