Friday already!! Turns out having Monday and Tuesday off makes the week go by pretty fast. Taking a pause from my trip recap because those are time intensive to put together!! No need to stress myself to get them up in any certain order. Hopefully can get another day or two done this weekend. Speaking… Continue reading Upcoming & Daily Life
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
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
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
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
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
THE MEET IS OVER. Yippee. We all survived all 3 days of the meet, everything went well, and it's done. THANK God. I am legit exhausted right now, though. It was just, obviously, a lot- both leading up to it, and also I think the nervous energy all weekend long of just making sure everything… Continue reading I survived
Exciting news- I think I found a new hair stylist! 😂 Quick long story short: I used to get my hair done by this one girl at a big salon here in town. I liked her, although it always seemed SO expensive (cut/ highlights). Fast forward- she had a baby, then another baby. Her schedule… Continue reading Good news- hair edition
Hello hello! Didn't mean to go MIA for a while there. We were gone all weekend for Asher's State competition in Milwaukee, which isn't too far from my parents' house. Asher swam Saturday and Sunday afternoon, and we ended up staying overnight at my parents' until Monday morning. (I took a half day off, the… Continue reading Weekend and tired
Good morning! I just need to acknowledge this lovely moment I am enjoying right now. Ethan and Ivan just left for an 8 am basketball. Asher is still sleeping. I'm sitting in our sunroom (arguably the best room in our house), with my little space heater on, my Christmas village glowing behind me AND it… Continue reading Upholder life
