I know you are all on the edge of your seats waiting to see the second half of my 20 in 2020 list, so I will just give a very brief morning update here before getting on with it. 🙂 Yesterday was pretty uneventful in our household. Super uneventful, actually. The kids didn't have school (Easter Monday)… Continue reading My 20 in 2020 List at 25% of the way through the year (Part 2)
My 20 in 2020 List at 25% of the way through the year (Part 1)
Good Monday morning. I usually really like Mondays. There is something about the fresh start, the new week, getting back into the routine after the weekend that I generally enjoy. I think this is more the case now that I work from home and don't typically feel stressed by having to "go back to work" like… Continue reading My 20 in 2020 List at 25% of the way through the year (Part 1)
Easter Morning! Also, some general pandemic observations.
Happy Easter 2020! As I prefaced in my post from yesterday, we didn't have any major plans for today. So far we are all still wearing PJs and it's mid-afternoon. We did get up and do the Easter basket/ egg hunt! The, ahem, "Easter Bunny" really stepped up his basket hiding game this year. Since the boys… Continue reading Easter Morning!

Weekend Ramblings and Why I Feel “Blah” about Easter
Well, I woke up to the news that the worldwide death toll from the coronavirus has surpassed the 100,000 mark. Great and good morning to me! I have been trying to stay relatively removed from constantly reading and watching the news coverage of it all. It just gets to be a bit too much for me.… Continue reading Weekend Ramblings and Why I Feel “Blah” about Easter

I… Continue reading Good Friday
“I’m not creative”
Good Thursday morning! Today is technically the kids' school week Friday, since they don't have school tomorrow for Good Friday. We got a gorgeous morning for our walk before school yesterday! We decided to lengthen it a little bit and walked through the park. On the school front, this week has been okay overall. I would rate… Continue reading “I’m not creative”
How have I been MORE productive during the pandemic??
Okay! Monday is long gone, and I am back on track. Yesterday was much better. I got a shower in in the morning, took our daily walk with the boys, successfully managed to help organize another school day, had a conference call with my boss, got all of my work hours in and even got my… Continue reading How have I been MORE productive during the pandemic??
Some days are a…..”Nope”
Ay caramba. My Monday yesterday went down the toilet quickly. It wasn't even technically a "terrible" day where so many huge things even went wrong. The day just didn't work. Let's see. It started out nicely...I woke up on time, got my morning routine in...But that's kind of where it stopped? I got wrapped up in some… Continue reading Some days are a…..”Nope”
My Current Morning Routine during COVID-19
It's Monday, officially only our second Monday since starting quarantine. (I'm not even really sure what to call it. I know we are aren't really in "quarantine" exactly, but what are we supposed to say? "Our second Monday since starting to stay at home all the time? Our second Monday in social isolation? All of… Continue reading My Current Morning Routine during COVID-19
Yo-Yo workout and another weekend at home
What a difference some sunshine can make! Although I am usually actually a big sucker for cloudy, cozy, rainy (or snowy) days, there is something about the first days of warm sunshine in the Midwest that just feels SO GOOD. Yesterday we had full sunshine all day, despite chilly temps in the upper-40's/low- 50's. I had… Continue reading Yo-Yo workout and another weekend at home
