So far the weekend is feeling much better than the craziness of last week. I had a nice day yesterday, spending the morning with my parents, then some housework/ work in the afternoon and finally in the evening, a big milestone.... Asher had his first "swim meet" since February! (I put quotes because it wasn't an… Continue reading An actual swim meet (?!) and 1st ever “Weekly Review”

Saturday
I felt bad for a while yesterday morning after I hit publish on my blog post. Like I said, I just had woken up feeling tired, overwhelmed from such a busy week and I had a bit of a headache. I felt like my post probably came off as "complain-y" and "whiny", which might have… Continue reading Saturday
People!!
I really hadn't realized it, but we had not seen PEOPLE in a really, really long time. I mean, we have "kind of" seen some people- obviously we now see my parents, we went to a friend's for a bonfire a few weeks ago and I've seen my neighbors out and about. But in terms of… Continue reading People!!
Saturday Check-In
Tea + Outside = Perfect start to the day Good morning! I just rolled out of bed a bit bleary eyed. We were over at friend’s house in the neighborhood last night to hang out on their deck and have a bonfire. It was the most beautiful summer night- warm and humid- and the boys had fun… Continue reading Saturday Check-In
Holiday Highlight Reel
And just like that, our little holiday weekend “getaway” is over. Considering I came to my parents’ house a day early, it seemed to just fly by. I hadn’t actually been anywhere since March, now that I think of it, so it was nice to just feel like we were going somewhere at least, even… Continue reading Holiday Highlight Reel
My Recipe for a Nice Weekend
I was reflecting yesterday (again, as this is a frequent topic of reflection since the pandemic began) on just how different our weekends are without soccer games, swim meets, practices, and the like. Since last weekend was Father’s Day and next weekend is 4th of July, I didn’t really feel like making big plans this… Continue reading My Recipe for a Nice Weekend
Someone crashed my early morning hours!
I am writing this later than usual on this beautiful Sunday morning, since this guy ↓decided he wanted to go swim laps at 6:05 a.m. this morning! We were going to go yesterday afternoon, but it was hot and we ended up just feeling lazy, so we cancelled and rescheduled for bright and early today.… Continue reading Someone crashed my early morning hours!

All good things must come to an end
….and by that, I mean the kids are coming home today. LOL. Yes, the time has come for them to return from their little trip to my parents' house. The boys are not happy about it, I could probably live without them for a couple more days 😉 … Only my parents are probably breathing… Continue reading All good things must come to an end
3 Things on a Saturday
Ah, a Saturday morning with no kids home. 😊 How relaxing. (Actually, I’m kind of exaggerating the difference- at this point, the boys rarelywake us up on a Saturday. They generally make a beeline for the living room since on Saturdays they can play video games when they wake up for a while). But still,… Continue reading 3 Things on a Saturday
