Today is the last day of summer school already! I know Asher started a week late, but these last few weeks have flown by. This morning he wraps it up. He has seemed to REALLY enjoy it, despite "being the only boy" in a couple of his art classes. I'm glad to see him enthused… Continue reading 3 Things Thursday: School, workouts, covid

Haircut + Documentaries
Just jumping on quick before I dive into an afternoon of work. I took the morning off to get a haircut and color. I might be weird, but I hate getting my hair done. I really do not enjoy it at all. It takes too long, it's boring, I find sitting next to the stylist… Continue reading Haircut + Documentaries
Today + photo project fun
Not much time today- I am on a mission to head out in~5 minutes to hit up the grocery store!! We seriously need groceries, and there just wasn't a great time so far this week. (Well, there probably was, but nobody wanted to go.) I tend to have a MUCH easier time (semi) cheerfully going… Continue reading Today + photo project fun
3 Things Thursday
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
Days of the week
A pretty red winged blackbird on my walk yesterday morning 🙂 The last few weeks, I have noticed that my "toughest" days of the week are Tuesday and Wednesday. Probably not surprising, I guess- I feel like this might be the case for other people, too. Mondays I tend to feel fresh, ready to get… Continue reading Days of the week
Shopping: The in store/ online battle
I slept for 9 glorious hours last night!! In case you missed it, I woke up yesterday at 2 a.m. (after 4 hours of sleep). I did okay yesterday, overall....I had some bouts of sleepiness, but hung in there ok. But, I was feeling it by evening and announced to my family that I was… Continue reading Shopping: The in store/ online battle
This and that
I slept like total garbage last night. Sort of. I slept really great from 10 pm until 2 am, and then woke up. After laying there awake until ~4:20, I finally got up. In case you are wondering what time the birds wake up in my area (and start chirping), it is precisely 4:02 a.m.… Continue reading This and that
Smartphones & bedtime guilt
New phone! Exciting news. Haha. Ivan ordered me a new phone the other day and it arrived yesterday. I am the type who might use the same iphone for eternity if it were not for the nudging of my husband. (I've said before- sometimes I don't love change!) I generally adapt fully to whatever phone… Continue reading Smartphones & bedtime guilt
Monday: gratitude goals, family time and kids’ books
Currently= 37, High= 70. Just a modest 43 degree spread....:) Seems a little crazy, but bring on 70! I love my calendar quote from today. The gratitude thing is always easy when everything goes your way, so I especially like the reminders that point out that the ultimate goal is to be grateful always- highs… Continue reading Monday: gratitude goals, family time and kids’ books
Thursday Misc: work, email, Chipotle…
Happy Thursday! Nothing overly exciting to report around here today. Work project- Yesterday I started working on a little side project at work (not exactly a normal, actual work related project, but more of an organizational project that will benefit the department long term). It's right up my alley and I found myself getting lost… Continue reading Thursday Misc: work, email, Chipotle…
