May was the least "Mayhem" May I think we've had in years. I guess we are officially past some of that. Or, it's a lull until the next two years when I'll have seniors and I think there's more of a flurry again as senior year wraps up. Never fear, there was still plenty of… Continue reading May 2026 Recap
Last week I talked about my ongoing battle with my closet. Not a new topic around here. (That, as well as me whining about overpacking.) I vowed to try taking pics of my daily outfits for a while. In the past, this has helped me actually wear some different things, be a bit more mindful,… Continue reading Saturday style scenes
I listed as a "fun goal" for May to walk to the new(ish) coffee shop by my house on a nice day and work there for a while. It's literally a <10 minute walk! Well, today was the day. My mom wanted to go for a walk and I had about 1 hour 15 minutes… Continue reading A May fun goal âś…
9:30 p.m. still counts! 🙂 I just sat down for the first time since I finished working at 5:30. I had a very thrilling Friday night around here. Ivan is away tonight with a friend, Ethan is away overnight for tennis, and Asher had golf, then work. He should be home soon. I decided to… Continue reading I didn’t forget to post 🙂
Currently sitting in my car waiting for Ethan’s 4:15 tennis match to start: I ducked out of work early to get here. Tennis matches are tough! They always start at 4:15 and seems so many are “away” (and FAR away). This one is a “home” match but the courts are still almost 30 minutes away… Continue reading Tuesday
In the spirit of (trying) to keep my posts shorter, I'm going to do a slightly less thorough April recap. (*everyone cheers*) The month kicked off with the first ~5 days spent in the Virgin Islands. We returned late Sunday April 5th, then dove into a new workweek. I struggled to get my footing a… Continue reading A sort-of abbreviated April 2026 Monthly Recap
I didn't get a ton of feedback either way, but from what I did, a few people seemed interested, so, here's a couple more days. 🙂 Thursday CATEGORYTIME SPENTACTIVITIES?

I have "tracked my time" intermittently for a couple years now, but more in the journalistic way. I have my little spreadsheet and jot things down, but I have never worried about exactness or tallying it up or anything. For some reason, maybe inspired by the recent BOBW episode and the suggestion to try time… Continue reading 2 days of time tracking results
I feel like this last ~week or so has been fun! Backing up to last Thursday- I already talked about my nursing symposium presentation + fun "little adventure" out for happy hour with Ivan. Friday was stormy and low key and we had tornado warnings. Side note: I haven't mentioned here yet, but we had… Continue reading A fun stretch!
Looking back, March was an abrupt pivot from all things SWIMMING (February) to a big spring break focus- with several miscellaneous events/ activities, first. I think the general vibe in the beginning was some relief to be released from the craziness of swim season. The month ended on a mega-high: our epic spring break trip!!… Continue reading March 2026 Recap
