Well, that's a wrap on the State swimming weekend for Asher. This also means that his season has come to end. It's been a pretty bizarre year and a half with swim team in general, due to covid. Everything came to a total halt last spring, followed by a summer with very, very small and… Continue reading Back from State weekend, and it’s hot
This was the first weekend in a long time that we had a pretty wide open/ empty weekend. (Well, after Asher's Regional swim meet on Friday night, anyway.) I was almost giddy with excitement at the idea of just having large spans of time with NO plans again. Next weekend is Asher's State for swimming,… Continue reading Did/ Did Not List
Hello and happy Wednesday! It's been a while. These last days have been FULL but fun. Asher and I left around 2 pm Friday afternoon for a 3 day swim meet ~1 1/2 hours away (but near my parents' house). He swam right away Friday evening, so we went straight to the pool. We got… Continue reading Whew, I’m back
Woke up feeling a little bit exhausted again this morning! What the heck?! Not quite this bad, but it still felt like a lot was fit into the weekend. It was SUPER HOT again, so maybe that's actually what has me feeling drained. 🔷 Last Day of School pic! 5th and 6th grades are in… Continue reading 1st Summer Weekend Highlights
This has been a really glorious weekend so far. Saturday I spent a bunch of time alone with the boys. Ethan had a soccer game an hour north of here at 9 am, but Ivan had to work for a bit so I took them by myself. Weather was really nice and afterwards we stopped… Continue reading Weekend + Kid-free time!!!
Oh dear lord. This is my current state: A little dazed, confused, tired and, kind of physically sore- as if I actually did some very strenuous physical activity this weekend (but I didn't). WHAT A WEEKEND. This was probably definitely the "busiest feeling" weekend since like, early 2020 at least, if not before. I swore… Continue reading A welcome workweek
Happy Sunday! I ended up having a pretty great Saturday, after some plans shifted and my day unexpectedly opened up. The morning was fairly lazy but included checking off a couple more months worth of photo organization. Still chugging along on this photo project. Ethan and I cleaned out his closet. It badly needed it… Continue reading I am not throwing away my shot
Oh man, I feel a bit exhausted! Not exactly the feeling I strive to have at 6 am on a Monday morning, but I guess it's a good exhaustion. The weekend felt BUSY. As in, pre-pandemic busy feel! I have mixed feelings on this, but I don't exactly see a way around it, either. A… Continue reading Weekend whirlwind
Last night felt like a busy, but fun, start to the weekend. Asher had received an invite to play laser tag right after school at a local bowling alley with the 5 other boys in his school cohort (same boys that are together all day, every day- plus masked). He was really happy to get… Continue reading A fun start to the weekend
It's been a nice last few days. Some sunny weather, got my 2nd dose of vaccine (no side effects with either, except maybe a tiny headache last night?), some much needed cleaning, soccer games, outside time, Mexican food.... Here's a little recap: *A lunchtime walk on Friday. I did a short 27 minute core workout… Continue reading Last couple days in pics
GRATEFUL KAE
