Thanks to anyone who read my epistle of a life update the other day. LOL. Things are slowly feeling a little more "normal" this week, but I think I have come to understand that summertime is always going to feel sort of like a hot mess for me. The reality is just that with the… Continue reading New life mantra??
As alluded to in my last post, things have been a little CRA-ZY around here!!! Vacation, holiday, family, work insanity (big audit prep), a birthday!, driving!, more family, a swim meet, chiropractor appts, kids' jobs.... phew. It's been a month so far. I will attempt to recap a bit of what we've all been up… Continue reading Backing up & (many) life updates!
Hellooooo!! I am still alive, yes. WHEW these last few weeks though!!! I've been kind of "drowning in fun", if that were a thing. hahaha. Between vacation prep, THE CRUISE(!!!!), then going immediately into 4th of July festivities (got home from vacay on 7/1 and then turned around on 7/3 to be away overnight in… Continue reading HI/ Still alive!
First, thank you to all those who commented about my teen driving dilemma on my last post. I really appreciated hearing from others on this!!! A couple last things on this topic that I maybe didn't emphasize, just to clarify: 1) The biggest issue for me (BESIDES the whole legality thing) is this particular route.… Continue reading Thanks and misc. updates
Helloooo! Sorry for the unexpected absence. I didn't actually go anywhere, I just abruptly fell off a metaphorical cliff basically the moment I hit "publish" last Thursday morning. Yes, just as soon I touted my great success at sticking to my workout plan, breezing through the end of school chaos, etc. in my last post.… Continue reading Momentarily fell off a cliff & need advice
1. Writing today from a coffee shop near Ethan's (new) high school.... It was my day to drive to the 7:30 a.m. strength and conditioning class. So Ethan and I were up and out the door by ~6:50 to pick up his friend and drive across town. This whole thing (the distance/drive) is going to… Continue reading Things on a Thursday
So Ivan left Saturday morning for California and will be away until Friday, meaning this whole week I have some "husband-free" time. This may sound bad, but I was kind of excited for this week!! (Don't worry, Ivan doesn't read my blog; he won't be offended.) I mean, it's not that I want him to… Continue reading Some husband-free time
I have a question about flexibility. And no, not flexibility as in what I might normally talk about in this space- the flexibility to work from home, or work/life balance, or things like that. I am literally talking about flexibility, of your body. Is it actually possible to really improve flexibility??? I feel like I… Continue reading Flexibility: a question
I feel like this week is that final push, up the hill toward the FINISH banner in a race. When I sat down Friday to check over the family Google Calendar and plan out the week a bit, it... took me a while. Ha. That whole idea of fitting pieces together like a game of… Continue reading Sprint to the finish
About to jump into meetings for the next 2 hours, so I'm taking a quick brain break. I've been working solid since 7:30 a.m. today. Couple random things: 1. Isn't this a pretty picture? From the end of Asher's soccer practice the other night. 2. Little hamster girl is so cute. She also is not… Continue reading A 5 minute post
GRATEFUL KAE
