It's a fun and exciting time in the sports world! Looking forward to: 🔷The Winter Olympics!!! I love the Olympics. I love everyone in the world coming together and caring about the same thing at the same time and cheering people on. I love that theme song. I love watching the actual sports. I love… Continue reading Some things I’m looking forward to

Lately- January 2026
I just realized that my recent posts have been very "topic" focused (and fairly few and far between, too). Lots of goals, Ireland, and the most recent "what's been working this year so far" post. I just dropped Charlie off at a (twice rescheduled by the groomer...) grooming appointment, so I stopped for a tea… Continue reading Lately- January 2026
Snowy December, something odd/creepy, + SOMETHING SUPER EXCITING!
It has been a true Wisconsin December this year! (Which it often has not been in recent years!) We've been getting a lot of snow (and not just in a big storm here and there- we've been seeing frequent snow showers). If I had to choose when to get snow, I'd definitely pick December! It… Continue reading Snowy December, something odd/creepy, + SOMETHING SUPER EXCITING!
Hanging on, sort of…’tis the season
OH MAN you guys, this past week! Was pretty nuts. I knew it going in and it did not disappoint. Let's do a run down of why I had a "sense of impending doom" last Sunday, while also trying to enjoy all the happy things and festive season... Lol, this meme made me laugh. 😅… Continue reading Hanging on, sort of…’tis the season
Quick check in/ last weekend/ shopping?
Blogging has had to take a very definitive back seat since we got home from Mexico! I guess 'tis the season that there are a lot of competing priorities. I spent this past weekend in sort of a pre-holiday CRAZE. I suddenly felt this huge pull to just get our whole house "Christmas ready". Even… Continue reading Quick check in/ last weekend/ shopping?
Lots of things + some wins
Whew this was a busy Saturday. I had a list a mile long of things I wanted/needed to do this weekend. Unfortunately I can't say I checked everything off, but I did check off some big things, so, that's a win. Of course, as usually happens, I also did several things that were not on… Continue reading Lots of things + some wins
The rest of the weekend
After Halloween on Friday, we've had a fun and very enjoyable weekend! My parents arrived around 4 p.m. on Friday and stayed until ~11:15 a.m. today (Sunday), so we had a nice chunk of time with them. They came with us to Ethan's big Sectional Final soccer game at 1 p.m yesterday. Unfortunately, the weather… Continue reading The rest of the weekend
Tuesday randomness
First of all, thank you for such amazing and robust comments on my travel hacking post the other day!! I can see that it's sort of a "polarizing" topic, with people having quite strong arguments for and against it. I haven't had a chance to respond to all your comments yet, but I will soon,… Continue reading Tuesday randomness
Some days in the life
Argh, I still have not had a spare second to sort my final Nova Scotia pics and get that post up. BUT I WILL! Because the last days were incredible and deserve all the attention too! So please stay tuned... hopefully soon...😫 (Promise you won't skip it just because it's late!!!) It feels like so… Continue reading Some days in the life
Interrupting your regularly scheduled programming…
for a real time update. I still have 2 days left to recap from the Nova Scotia trip (well, 1 full day plus our departure day, which still included some fun bits!), but that is not happening today. I do have a couple minutes though, so I thought I'd just pop on quickly for a… Continue reading Interrupting your regularly scheduled programming…
