Just dropped Asher off at swim practice a little bit ago. It started at 5:30 a.m. For me, this isn't exactly a "huge" deal- my alarm normally goes off at 5:15 these days and I try to be up by 5:30 at the latest, anyway. But a couple things. 1) In order to have him… Continue reading A little whine about early mornings
This was a nice, variety-filled weekend. Got some things accomplished and had some fun, so, win-win. Saturday- Me + Asher- to early swim practice (7 am) at the farther-away pool, so we left home by 6:30. Forgot my phone at home (grrrr......), so my laptop I brought along to do things on while I waited… Continue reading A late September weekend
The weekend was just okay... I mean, it was good, but maybe not great? I was up early both days- Saturday Asher had swim practice at 7, and Sunday I drove Ethan to work by 7. This isn't a big deal, really, because I usually always wake up pretty early. But I do like having… Continue reading The weekend and a MONDAY Monday
There have been 3 relatively small things that have been making a positive impact on me lately. I won't claim that I'll continue these forever, but for now, they seem to be helping. #1: Laying out my clothes before bed. I usually just put on workout clothes first thing in the morning, so it's not… Continue reading 3 small things making a positive impact
Hello! I never got around to hopping on the blog during the last few days, so here's an update on some recent events in my life: Thursday: Ethan got BRACES! Woo!! Such mixed feelings, because of course it's kind of an adolescent rite of passage. It means he's growing up! It also means his smile… Continue reading The last 4 days
I was excited for this long weekend, and it did not disappoint. On the whole, it felt pretty relaxing. We still did things, but there was also a lot of downtime. Anniversary dinner out Friday Cleaned (most) of the house on Saturday Ethan started his job! Went in hot tub several times (we're having much… Continue reading Long weekend + Monday motivation on a Tuesday
Coming at you from a pretty gloriously lazy day. Ivan took Asher off to his first soccer tournament since he had declared himself "retired" from soccer back in late 2019. I guess he is like Tom Brady and just can't quite give it up, because he's back..... Games are at 9:00 and 1:45, about 1… Continue reading Some firsts (school + work) and our 15th
Whew, this has been a busy day, and I have exactly 12 minutes until I need to log back on to commence another training session with new employee. But I can't let today pass by without sending a HUGE shout-out to my parents, on their 50th wedding anniversary!!! I wish I had prepared a more… Continue reading Ruby red and GOLD
This is it- the last day of August. whoa. Not sure how we ended up here, but here we are. To me, this = the "last day of summer", because the boys start SCHOOL tomorrow!! And, in my mind, September is a fall month, anyway. This summer was....something. ha. It was good! But also, a… Continue reading Summer 2022 Recap
This is going to be a weird post for me, because it's going to include exactly zero photos. The reason for that is because I left my phone in my sister-in-law's car last night, so, I do not actually have my phone...which is where my pictures are. (She drove us to/from the local wedding we… Continue reading A phone-less morning and (I had fun at the wedding)
