Well, after I posted about our carryon dilemma yesterday, I went down a little rabbit hole online researching more about it and thinking about it. I know this is a VERY EXCITING blog post topic 🤣. Basically, I see a few possible outcomes: #1: We take our 22" Samsonite carry-ons + no one questions the… Continue reading Problem solving….
I packed for Copenhagen yesterday!! We don't leave until Wednesday night. 🤣 But I despise packing and am really quite bad at it, so lately I have been trying to pack EARLY to avoid last minute panicking. I have room to spare in both my carryon and my backpack (which is good, because not everything… Continue reading Getting ready + travel worries
I saw a random reel yesterday on Instagram (some sort of influencer/ doctor person?) about a medical incident that occurred on her recent flight.

I had the NICEST weekend, though!!… Continue reading Perfect weekend
Well, I think I made it pretty clear in yesterday's post that I was, errr, having some cold feet. I always like the IDEA of challenges, but when it comes right down to it, I think I don't actually like them!!! haha. At least maybe not in this phase of my life. 30 days is… Continue reading Whole 30 Day 5: pivot….
