It's Back to School Day, part 2, as I call it....Obviously the real "back to school" occurs in the fall, but heading back after winter break always feels like another "1st Day of School". This was the lowest key of all low key winter breaks, ever! But that's okay. I feel a twinge of guilt… Continue reading Back to School (part 2) + a tip
First, some numbers, because this is the fun part about tracking stuff. Here were my "stats" for "number of days of intentional reading in the month" for 2021. (From January- May I was strict on trying to do Gretchen Rubin's "Read 21 in 21", so those were all at least 21 minute blocks. After that,… Continue reading 2021 Books
Just unboxed my new desk calendar, so it's official- 2022 is here!! I don't feel totally ready for the new year, meaning that I don't have my planner all set up and my goals list is still a work in progress (with question marks, circles, asterisks, cross outs all over the scratch paper I started… Continue reading Happy New Year + a new challenge
Happy final day of 2021! Wow, this really blows my mind. I remember NYE 2019 very vividly, leading into 2020 with all sorts of excitement....and then that all happened, and here we are now after yet another year. I wish I had time right now to do another year end recap like I did for… Continue reading Word of the Year 2021 recap
I'm in a bit of a bad mood this morning, so this is probably not the BEST BEST time to do this, but I'm going to anyway. (Bad mood mostly based on nothing in particular....I think just kind of irritable with the state of the world/ that covid is still causing such a huge problem… Continue reading Goals: brainstorming
It's only a few days until the new year!! I haven't had a lot of time yet this week to really dive into prepping my 2022 system, and it feels like it's sneaking up on me. I kind of wish I had the 31st OFF and could just spend a few hours puttering around getting… Continue reading 2022 Wonderland 222 planner prep
I hope everyone had a great Christmas!!! I did. 🙂 It always goes by so fast!! I do feel a little sense of relief when all the hustle is over, but also a bit of sadness that the excitement and fun is over, too. Instead of a full play by play, I want to share… Continue reading Favorite Holiday Moments 2021
Christmas is a-comin'. Ready or not, here she comes!! Our halls are decked, things are (mostly) done....we're about as ready as we're gonna be. Despite my vacation/sick days, this home stretch has still felt a little rushed....but such is life, I guess. I may as well just give up on this goofy idea I have… Continue reading The halls are decked, etc.
I feel like a new person after a couple days off. It definitely was a good call to take a re-do vacay day yesterday. I took a leisurely morning, headed out to finish up some shopping during the day (which was a SUCCESS, yay- it's always a relief when you find good stuff! Especially 3… Continue reading Christmas prep day
Vacation Day --> Sick Day So, my vacation day yesterday ended up being a bust. I woke up with a bit of a headache (I kind of had a "stress" type headache Sunday afternoon, after the meet). I figured it was just from not sleeping well + all the activity + stress/ anxiety over the… Continue reading Take 2 vacation day and some sad news
