Saturday, March 23 Saturday’s plan was mostly a day trip to Windsor. We ended up staying up too late Friday night and probably still had some jet lag effects, so we were just slow and lazy Saturday morning. Which was actually fine, since the main attraction in Windsor is the Windsor Castle, and it doesn’t… Continue reading Day 3! Hyde Park + Windsor day trip
Day 2! Tower of London, Tower Bridge, Chinatown and more
Friday, March 21 Our first full day was great!! We were a bit slow-moving in the morning, which I had expected. I hadn’t booked any timed tickets or anything, but was pretty firmly set that we’d do Tower of London on Friday. It’s a lengthy activity that requires multiple hours or a better part of… Continue reading Day 2! Tower of London, Tower Bridge, Chinatown and more
Not the smoothest start but then great first day in London!
We’re here!! We made it. It was not the smoothest of journeys, but not bad really, either, and it certainly could be worse. (See news today of a fire at a power substation closing London Heathrow airport for the entire day today, at least! 😳😳 Thank GOD we weren’t flying in today instead!) We left… Continue reading Not the smoothest start but then great first day in London!
It’s go time!
Yahoo, trip day is here! Well, tonight. Our flight is at 9:15 p.m. Originally it was supposed to be a 10:30 p.m. flight, but they changed it to 9:15 a couple months ago. Which is fine overall- it means we'll get in earlier, if all goes well. But I had kind of chosen the extra… Continue reading It’s go time!
March almost over for me and workout recap
I was laying in bed after taking Charlie out in the middle of the night (now that weather has been nicer and yard has thawed, we've been letting him run around in the backyard, and I think that unfortunately means he has maybe rediscovered the joys of rabbit poop? 😫), and I was thinking about… Continue reading March almost over for me and workout recap
A fast week + other misc.
Trip prep: This week has felt a bit odd. It was Ivan's birthday, I had PT on Wednesday morning, volunteer work Monday, work work all week, and I have to end work early to get to a haircut this afternoon. It also seemed to fly by. Which I am overall okay with... even though I… Continue reading A fast week + other misc.
Names: first vs a title
At work, I have to interact with doctors a lot as part of my role. Obviously when I worked as an inpatient nurse, I also worked with doctors a lot, but in a different capacity. Now, my role in Transplant Quality is considered part of Transplant Administration, so instead of working in a more traditional… Continue reading Names: first vs a title
Almost spring break, lifeguarding + luck and the Chinese farmer
Almost spring break: We are now ~10 days out from spring break (!!!). We had a really chill weekend, and I'm so glad. The past ~5 years or so Asher has always had the State swim meet the weekend right before (or very close) to when we've left for spring break. I remember being out… Continue reading Almost spring break, lifeguarding + luck and the Chinese farmer
Braces off + Gentle
Happy Friday! It's been a pretty average week here, nothing much to write home about, but considering what Sarah continues to go through, average sounds great. 😥 One good thing this week was that Ivan got his braces off! He'd had an adult canine that never came down into place (his baby tooth just never… Continue reading Braces off + Gentle
What I’m Packing for London in March
I did something a little crazy Monday night, and that is: I packed for London! Even though we don't leave for 2 weeks. If you've been around a while, you'll know packing is sort of my nemesis. We just don't get along. lol. I am too indecisive, and unlike some people I know who are… Continue reading What I’m Packing for London in March
