I am excited to report that I made some REAL progress this weekend on my 21 for 2021 list item of finally getting my digital photos organized and backed up. In fact, this is #1 on the whole list. Honestly, it is just a disaster though. My digital photo collection goes back to basically ~2006.… Continue reading Weekend sunshine and the abyss of photo organization…
Happy Spring
Photo by Pixabay on Pexels.com My phone says it is 28 degrees outside, but it is technically spring. So, Happy Spring!! 🙂 I love tulips and they of course seem to be the universal sign of spring, although we definitely do not have any tulips blooming around here yet. Actually, we don't have any tulips… Continue reading Happy Spring
Friday 5: Inspiration
Today's Friday 5: Favorite quotes of the week! 1- "If you see something beautiful in someone, speak it". LOVE this one. I've been on kind of a private mission to do this as often as I can for a few years now. It feels a little funny at first, but it's such a win-win. The… Continue reading Friday 5: Inspiration
3 Things Thursday
1. Spring break starts tomorrow for my kids! Today is their last day of school until Monday, March 29th. It was supposed to be tomorrow, but I think their teachers are all getting their second doses of the vaccine today after school. Since apparently the 2nd dose causes more side effects in many people, the… Continue reading 3 Things Thursday
St. Patrick’s Day + mom guilt!
Happy St. Patrick's Day! Memories from last year...we were supposed to be in Ireland for St. Patrick's Day and had all of this ready to wear to celebrate... 😦 This morning I am feeling a tiny bit of mom guilt. Not really that much, but a little bit. Over the years, St. Patrick's Day somehow… Continue reading St. Patrick’s Day + mom guilt!
Fake spring & workout completion!
I knew it would happen....it always does. We had the most gorgeous weather last week. We hit 60 degrees, the kids even wore SHORTS to school almost everyday (ridiculous- it was not that warm, but whatever. I am 100% over arguing with small people about what they will or will not wear, considering that it… Continue reading Fake spring & workout completion!
Dark morning! New week.
It's so dark out this morning!!! 😦 We had Daylight Savings time on Saturday night here in the U.S., as many of you know, so it is now darker later in the morning but light out until later in the evening. I may be in the minority that actually prefers the light in the morning...at… Continue reading Dark morning! New week.
Birthday surprise
I've mentioned before that my husband is notoriously difficult to buy gifts for. He doesn't really have any big hobbies that require "gear" or "equipment" (no golf balls or tees to buy....doesn't really like to read....is pretty minimalistic about many things like coffee mugs, etc.....). He is also rather picky about his clothing and likes… Continue reading Birthday surprise
Yay weekend
Oh my goodness, I am so exhausted!!! Well, I'm feeling a little more human after sleeping for 8 1/2 hours last night (significantly more than my usual amount of sleep....). I was just sitting here catching up and updating my planner a bit after a hectic last couple of days, and I can kind of… Continue reading Yay weekend
My husband is “over the hill”! ;)
not sure the date in this pic, but at least 15 years ago!! Hahaha! I say this jokingly, because I've talked with a few people lately about that silly old phrase. "Over the hill". I remember that being a big thing when my parents turned 40- everyone celebrated 40th birthdays with black decorations and lots… Continue reading My husband is “over the hill”! 😉
