Yesterday was kind of an overcast day with some snow flurries. I worked from home, as usual, and also worked out from home and was otherwise just home all day, until around 3:30. At that point, I went upstairs and flipped the fireplace on and just kind of sat there for a minute as I… Continue reading Want vs. reality
Some random stuff today.... 1. I got my covid booster yesterday! I finally rescheduled it after cancelling a couple weeks ago due to a headache that day. I've heard of so many people feeling like total garbage after getting the booster that I had a hard time finding a good day to schedule it...(for example,… Continue reading This and that
So there's always a lot of talk these days about social media, etc... it's evil/ it's valuable!/ it's terrible/ it's great! Seems like many people want to cut back their use, but yet, it's addicting. I am certainly guilty as charged, too- I feel like I still look at Facebook way more than I should,… Continue reading Weird Facebook realization/ newsfeed exercise
Something I'm loving eating this week: Ivan's pico de gallo! He made nachos on Sunday night, and he always makes a big bowl of pico de gallo to top the nachos with. We had leftovers, so I have repurposed the pico de gallo multiple times now. 1st: As a salad topper! Chicken, apple, black pepper,… Continue reading Whatever Wednesday
I feel like this has been a very "random" week in blog posts, so, sorry?? Or not, if you like them this way. 🙂 Of course, I must commemorate Asher's 1st covid vaccine yesterday, for the sake of memory keeping and tracking this whole pandemic (in my own way) via blog posts. All went well!… Continue reading 3 Things Thursday
FINALLY a better day all around yesterday. Gym ☑️Work ☑️Piano lessons ☑️Basketball parent meeting ☑️ Also, a morning walk. I liked this nice little red tree. Closet clean-out: I also ended up with a quiet, empty house post-basketball meeting, because Ivan took the boys to a movie. (I forget which one- some new action/ superhero/… Continue reading Wednesday misc: clothes, funny comments, vaccines
Monday was...okay. Really not going to be a day to go down in the history books or even my memory bank beyond probably today. HA. The thing is, if I enter the week with any sense of "chaos" in my head, I have the hardest time dialing in to focus and concentrate. And that was… Continue reading Still not ready for the week, but oh well
My mom brought me a box of my old cello music last weekend, to see if there was anything in there I wanted to keep. It was a little trip down memory lane, seeing pieces I had played with my string quartet in high school, or songs I played for competitions. 🙂 Anyway, there were… Continue reading Flashback to 1996 planning style, and a personal question
Coco asked me yesterday how I kept track of everything for the "weekly audit" review I posted. In reality, I don't normally keep track of my week exactly according to those categories. Yesterday morning I sat down in a special attempt to do a weekly audit, and brainstormed those 7 categories as general areas of… Continue reading More on weekly audit + ?? TRAVEL and other misc.
My Don't Sweat the Small Stuff desk calendar taught a good lesson this week, spread out over the last few days. Thought I'd share it here for your benefit, too. 🙂 It said (in summary): To become a less reactive, happier person, remember the three R's: 1- Responsive Act appropriately to the actual issue at… Continue reading “The Three R’s” lesson + misc. life
