Yesterday was a very typical, regular day. Perhaps could be seen as "boring", to some. But I was thinking (during my Les Mills Core class at 6:15 last night (fitness class #3 of the year so far! Aiming for average of 2/ month and so far hitting that goal), I like regular days. I mean,… Continue reading I like regular days
I know a LOT of people who read this blog are huge readers. I pale in comparison to the majority of you, with my maybe 1-2 books a month average. Funny story: so my dad reads this blog (hi Dad 😘) and he often finds the comments to be very interesting. ("They're all just like… Continue reading When are you reading so many books?
I sat here this morning skimming over my annual 2025 goals list, trying to earmark a few things I want to prioritize in February. We're already 1/12th of the way through the year, so I want to be mindful to not keep saying "later, later". Anyway, one of my annual goals is to "Write 5… Continue reading San Francisco- April 2008
January 31st! One whole month down of 2025. I mean, actually, this is pretty accurate! Haha. So far, I'm happy overall with my progress on my goals. Yes, as always happens, some of that New Year Energy started to wane a bit around the midway point. (Apparently January 10th is officially "Quitter's Day", i.e. when… Continue reading January 2025 recap
Good news! This past weekend I finally sat down and did a marathon London planning session! On the negative flip side, it ended up completely dominating literally my entire day and into the evening (and I ended up ignoring other things I needed to do). Oh well, I guess. I mean, I needed to find… Continue reading London planning- officially underway
Work has been SO BUSY lately that I have been more excited than usual when the weekends roll around. I mean, things are going well at work overall and much of the work is very interesting and engaging, but it's just very go-go-go all day long. And some days seem to stretch later than I… Continue reading Weekend and a little work mystery
I'm really thrilled with my new year's workouts so far! So far I have hit 100% of my planned strength workouts (have completed 13 so far this month) and I'm especially proud of my CARDIO efforts! I've completed 9, but best of all, it feels like it's finally becoming more of a routine habit. As… Continue reading Happy with progress + showing up
I'm sitting here on an extra DAY OFF (yes!!) feeling quite literally and figuratively frozen at the moment. I mean, it's perfectly warm in my house, thankfully, because my phone says it is -5F outside with a "feels like" temp of -12F. So it is literally freezing, but I'm actually feeling frozen in terms of… Continue reading Feeling frozen… literally and figuratively
Adventures in thrifting: Last night I volunteered at Asher's weekly swim team pasta dinner again. Each family has to do it twice, and back in November at the Parents Meeting, I astutely signed up for two post-Christmas dinners. This was a very good decision, because although I still didn't particularly "feel" like making 6 lbs… Continue reading I thrifted! and “choose the suck”
Okay, phew! This has felt like a long series, with some looooooong posts! Finally the last section: OTHER. And, this should be relatively quick, because I only have 3 here so far. These are goals slots #21-25 on my 25 for 2025 list, but I've left 2 blank for now to fill in any fun,… Continue reading 2025 Goals: Other
GRATEFUL KAE
