I'm officially on my little "Christmas break!" YAY! It's nothing too much, really. Well, 5 days, I guess. I'm off today through the 25th. I just work Thursday and Friday next week. The following week I have off Monday the 30th and January 1st, so I only work 3 days that week (and NYE will… Continue reading Snowy Saturday before Christmas + goals contemplation
Wow, I last posted on 12/10 (and sorry, I never responded to everyone's great and very helpful comments about my gift buying process dilemma! I read every single one and am appreciative of the great ideas from all!). This week has been BUSY!!! 'Tis the season, right? So what have I been doing instead of… Continue reading Busy busy… why I was MIA for 8 days
A quick mini-rant about gift buying: I have heard recently in multiple places about people who have "carved out a couple hours and sat down to buy all their gifts", most recently on The Lazy Genius podcast yesterday. Just go on and get that pesky little task checked right off the list! This idea sounds....… Continue reading Gift buying mini-rant and other recent misc.
The holiday season is flying by...December 6th already today! Not to once again defend my choice to "start early" in November, but I already feel like it just goes SO FAST. So, starting early feels like the only way I get a sufficient amount of Christmas coziness in my life. 🙂 1- In person work… Continue reading Friday 5: work, travel, dogs, laughs
Okay, 3 days into my December Fitness challenge, and so far, so good. LOL! Let's hope I can at least stick with something for 3 days.... Sunday I just did an Emkfit Dance video on YouTube (~25 minutes) + a 5 minute abs workout on Bodi.com. I debated going to the gym, but I got… Continue reading So far, so good + 15!!
This has been a great weekend!!! Really a lovely time spent enjoying good food, family and relaxing. Before I get into all of that, I'll address the fact (again) that I clearly ended up bailing on the tail end of NaBloPoMo. Oops. I think I just got a little overwhelmed trying to even read or… Continue reading Thanksgiving weekend 2024 + in need of fresh month energy!
Well I've really dropped the ball on my NaBloPoMo quest. Unfortunately, I'll have to admit this is kind of how my personality goes. Once I break the proverbial seal and "screw up" at something, I am way more likely to sort of throw in the towel and be like, "Eh, well, already broke the chain,… Continue reading The day before Thanksgiving
Today I'm going to send you over to my dear friend Elisabeth's blog, because I'm guest posting over there! (Borrowing this header image from her blog: The Optimistic Musings of a Pessimist) I think she first asked me to guest post like, a year or more ago?! Then things got "busy" (of course) and it… Continue reading I’m hanging with a friend today!
I missed a day, you guys! I'm a NaBloMoPo drop out. 😅 Just kidding, it's fine. I didn't have time to post during the day yesterday, so I figured I would in the evening. But then evening came and I ended up working late unexpectedly and then dinner and clean up and then it was… Continue reading Recap of the week
Okay, abruptly changing gears from my sad post yesterday! I want to share the final list of "streaming workout" options that you guys all gave me on this post. (I think it's a fitting topic, because from what I know, regular exercise and living a very active life is one of the things consistently linked… Continue reading Streaming workout final round up!
GRATEFUL KAE
