Since I started January without extremely hard and firm "goals" fully sketched out, I spent most of the month not really stressing about trying to do anything in particular. I had a few things in my mind that I was kind of focusing on, but a full on New Years Revolution- no. My one big… Continue reading January numbers

3 Random kid updates
I overslept today....darn it. I hate when that happens! I made the mistake of leaving my phone (alarm) on my nightstand and wound up hitting the snooze button several times. (I usually keep it on other side of the room, so I have to GET UP to turn my alarm off...). Anyway, 3 brief, random… Continue reading 3 Random kid updates
Exciting news
I was not originally going to share this quite yet, because I don't want to "tempt the fates" and all of that....but then I decided... You know what, Universe? I'm not playing your games anymore. I'm confident that things are going to work out this time, in my favor. So, I'm going to say it… Continue reading Exciting news
5-4-3-2-1
Taking another pause from trip recaps, and instead bringing you what I'm going to call a 5-4-3-2-1 Weekend Recap. I'm going to rank some weekend events from 5 (highest/best) to 1 (lowest). Fortunately, nothing was truly too bad this weekend, though. 🙂 5 The highest spot goes to....Ethan and basketball. He had one game Saturday… Continue reading 5-4-3-2-1

A peaceful walk destination & Gratitude Challenge Days 8 and 9
Friday night there was a high school swim meet being held at our local high school, so Asher's club team had to go practice in another city ~20 minutes away to find pool time. I drove him out there for 5 pm practice, and since it was farther from home, I had to just stay… Continue reading A peaceful walk destination & Gratitude Challenge Days 8 and 9
A High/ Low & Challenge Day 6
High of this week so far: TV. Did anyone else happen to notice that the This is Us Season 6 premiere came out on Tuesday night???? 😃😃 We watched Seasons 1-5 this past year and loved it, so I was very excited for this. This is probably the first time I have excitedly awaited a… Continue reading A High/ Low & Challenge Day 6
Back to School (part 2) + a tip
It's Back to School Day, part 2, as I call it....Obviously the real "back to school" occurs in the fall, but heading back after winter break always feels like another "1st Day of School". This was the lowest key of all low key winter breaks, ever! But that's okay. I feel a twinge of guilt… Continue reading Back to School (part 2) + a tip
Christmas prep day
I feel like a new person after a couple days off. It definitely was a good call to take a re-do vacay day yesterday. I took a leisurely morning, headed out to finish up some shopping during the day (which was a SUCCESS, yay- it's always a relief when you find good stuff! Especially 3… Continue reading Christmas prep day
Take 2 vacation day and some sad news
Vacation Day --> Sick Day So, my vacation day yesterday ended up being a bust. I woke up with a bit of a headache (I kind of had a "stress" type headache Sunday afternoon, after the meet). I figured it was just from not sleeping well + all the activity + stress/ anxiety over the… Continue reading Take 2 vacation day and some sad news
