This is definitely the "busy season" for many people, especially moms. You hear a lot about it....every year is the same. Everyone is stressed and harried and HAVING FUN and MAKING MEMORIES, people! 🙂 I'm guilty, too. I'm busy. I have a long to do list. It feels overwhelming. Some things are "want to dos",… Continue reading Christmas crazies and Bad Moms
3 Things Thursday
I feel like this has been a very "random" week in blog posts, so, sorry?? Or not, if you like them this way. 🙂 Of course, I must commemorate Asher's 1st covid vaccine yesterday, for the sake of memory keeping and tracking this whole pandemic (in my own way) via blog posts. All went well!… Continue reading 3 Things Thursday
Wednesday misc: clothes, funny comments, vaccines
FINALLY a better day all around yesterday. Gym ☑️Work ☑️Piano lessons ☑️Basketball parent meeting ☑️ Also, a morning walk. I liked this nice little red tree. Closet clean-out: I also ended up with a quiet, empty house post-basketball meeting, because Ivan took the boys to a movie. (I forget which one- some new action/ superhero/… Continue reading Wednesday misc: clothes, funny comments, vaccines
Still not ready for the week, but oh well
Monday was...okay. Really not going to be a day to go down in the history books or even my memory bank beyond probably today. HA. The thing is, if I enter the week with any sense of "chaos" in my head, I have the hardest time dialing in to focus and concentrate. And that was… Continue reading Still not ready for the week, but oh well
Not ready for the week
I'm sitting here taking a few deep breaths, not really feeling at all ready for a new week to start!!!! I had a nice weekend, but it tipped very far to the "kids/ activities" side of the scale. Saturday started BRIGHT and early getting Asher up and off to 7:15 a.m. swim practice. By 8… Continue reading Not ready for the week
Couple good things
1- Christmas music is BACK! Last night in the car, Asher turned the radio on, and bam. There it was. "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree." I am not sad about this. No, it's not too early. No, it's not annoying. 😁 I love Christmas music. It feels almost impossible to be down when you are… Continue reading Couple good things
Flashback to 1996 planning style, and a personal question
My mom brought me a box of my old cello music last weekend, to see if there was anything in there I wanted to keep. It was a little trip down memory lane, seeing pieces I had played with my string quartet in high school, or songs I played for competitions. 🙂 Anyway, there were… Continue reading Flashback to 1996 planning style, and a personal question
New bedrooms- sneak peek
Good morning! Bonus pic above unrelated to rest of post: from my walk yesterday morning. This whole past week has involved a lot of carrying stuff from one place and putting it in another. It was a week ago already that we had the new carpet installed in the bedrooms, but I finally feel now… Continue reading New bedrooms- sneak peek
Happiness in the gym
I returned to the gym on October 18th (the day after my b-day), so I'm now in my 3rd week back. I'm proud to report that so far, I have met my goal of going 3x/ week for weight room sessions (as I said, currently doing 1. shoulders/triceps 2. legs 3. back/biceps). IT FEELS SO… Continue reading Happiness in the gym
Halloween 2021 Highlights
Yay, Halloween was so much fun! I'm rather tired now, however, and I think teachers everywhere will be facing some sleepy children today, too. 🙂 Here are the highlights from our day yesterday: I ran some errands in the morning- grocery store/ Target. The cloudy morning turned sunny by the time I left the store,… Continue reading Halloween 2021 Highlights
