T to the G to the I to the F. This kinda felt like the longest short week ever! Pretty sure that my terrible night of sleep on Tuesday just really kickstarted it to be a bit rough. Plus it's just been a really full bunch of days. But the week has definitely been on… Continue reading 1st CC meet and TGIF
Ohhhhh my goodness you guys. My heart is literally bursting even now like 12 hours later. I have to share this story. So last night was Asher's first "mock" cross country meet (just his own team, at the school, during practice). But they had to run an official course around the soccer and baseball fields,… Continue reading My heart is bursting
I think this weekend I finally hit a wall. We got home from vacation a week ago already on Sunday, and I know that I literally dove head first back into real life in probably too deep of a dive. Oddly though, I felt pretty great last week! Maybe I was riding the vacation high-… Continue reading Hit a wall?
We are currently sitting pretty here on this first week of school, because fall activities aren't quite in full swing yet. I just spent 10 minutes adding upcoming events/practices to my calendar though, so I thought I'd share what's on the docket. ETHAN: 🔷Soccer is his big one. Practice = 3x/ week Monday 5:30-7 (here… Continue reading Fall Activities
JULY RECAP First, it is somehow August. July felt like an absolute blur. When I look back at my planner, it's obvious why. We had family here for 4th of July weekend. Ethan's birthday and sleepover party with his friends. 2 weekends of swim meets, one including a 3 night stay at my parent's house… Continue reading July was packed & pre-vacation week
First, I did finally successfully complete my grocery trip yesterday morning. Store was EMPTY, which I am certain was probably not the case last night or will be anytime today with the holiday weekend upon us. So happy to have a stocked fridge again! It was Ethan's last day at camp and Asher had summer… Continue reading Camp pick-up/ New Month/Social Media
UGH, I am feeling a little overwhelmed right now. I hate saying that, because honestly, my life is really not that difficult (at ALL) compared to so many others'. Still, I have had a definite feeling of some "overwhelm" going on for a while now. I think I generally handle busy-ness fine, maybe better than… Continue reading Some overwhelm
My #1 impression so far, after using probably 99% less social media this week than I have any week in the past 10+ years: The old adage is true. "If you don't use it, you lose it." (Lose it= the desire to use it.) I am quite honestly SHOCKED at how I feel about this… Continue reading Social Media Break
1. Something I'm happy about/ proud of: Asher decided to give open water swimming another try! He did a 1.2 mile lake swim race last summer, which he was really nervous about it but did it. This season, his swim team has some lake practices and a couple open water events on the calendar, but… Continue reading 3 Things Thursday
This has been a really glorious weekend so far. Saturday I spent a bunch of time alone with the boys. Ethan had a soccer game an hour north of here at 9 am, but Ivan had to work for a bit so I took them by myself. Weather was really nice and afterwards we stopped… Continue reading Weekend + Kid-free time!!!
GRATEFUL KAE
