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.
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
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
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”! 😉
You know what I think is the worst thing for people who like (or need) to plan their time?? The service call. When the plumber/ electrician/ cable guy/ person with tools tells you they will show up at your house "between 12-5" or, in my case yesterday, "sometime before 3, but they'll call 20 minutes… Continue reading The enemy of time blocking
Hope you all had a great start to your week. Monday is in the books. It was a good day around here...I really wanted to start the week off strong. I had just wrapped up one "section" of some work on Friday and was starting on something new yesterday, so it felt fresh... which inspired… Continue reading Birthday gifts and sleepless nights
I've been feeling a little lacking in motivation lately, kind of. It's a little hard to explain. It's more that I feel like on the whole, I'm not as "hard core" on certain things as I used to be. I can't decide if I actually care or not. Around ~2015 or so when I got… Continue reading Results proportional to effort…. and yummy food
Yesterday was a day that felt longer than most. Not in a bad way, but it just seemed to have significantly more hours in it than other days. This is, of course, not true- though I suppose it technically had more waking hours for me than some days. I was up at 5:30 a.m. and… Continue reading A day with many hours
Happy Friday. This was nice, solid week- fairly uneventful- and leading into a pretty open, probably fairly uneventful weekend. That's cool with me. 🙂 Asher pre-weekending on early release Thursday after school. He is my hot tub kid. He loves it! Went in by himself because I just couldn't really break from work right then....… Continue reading Reading speed, running and volcanoes
"Your first thought in the morning should be "thank you". You can choose whatever you want for the second." We definitely should be saying "thank you" every morning. God (or whatever/whoever you personally believe in) has granted us another day to be alive!!!! That is pretty awesome and amazing. Today is Thursday. I like Thursdays.… Continue reading Misc. Thursday thoughts & family rulings
