It has been a true Wisconsin December this year! (Which it often has not been in recent years!) We've been getting a lot of snow (and not just in a big storm here and there- we've been seeing frequent snow showers). If I had to choose when to get snow, I'd definitely pick December! It… Continue reading Snowy December, something odd/creepy, + SOMETHING SUPER EXCITING!

Books!
First, big news- Sarah's book cover is finally out!! Her book Best Laid Plans: A Simple Planning System for Living a Life You Love is officially available for pre-order! The book will be released in December. Is it not the greatest?!?! I pre-ordered it and cannot WAIT to read it. Seriously, Sarah's methods just make… Continue reading Books!
Braces off + Gentle
Happy Friday! It's been a pretty average week here, nothing much to write home about, but considering what Sarah continues to go through, average sounds great. 😥 One good thing this week was that Ivan got his braces off! He'd had an adult canine that never came down into place (his baby tooth just never… Continue reading Braces off + Gentle
When are you reading so many books?
I know a LOT of people who read this blog are huge readers. I pale in comparison to the majority of you, with my maybe 1-2 books a month average. Funny story: so my dad reads this blog (hi Dad 😘) and he often finds the comments to be very interesting. ("They're all just like… Continue reading When are you reading so many books?
Saturday misc. + books
Thanks to all for the well wishes after my mom's fall! She is doing pretty well, or as well as to be expected. She's in her usual good spirits and otherwise totally fine, as long as she doesn't move. Moving around causes significant pain, so I think it's just mostly frustrating for her to be… Continue reading Saturday misc. + books
Feelin’ hot hot hot
I can't let today pass by without commenting on our extreme heat situation up here in Wisconsin! Also, it's always very fun to sing that song and it instantly gets me in the mood to be somewhere tropical and dancing in a congo line. "Ole ole, ole ole.... feeling hot hot hot....." Ooh, especially the… Continue reading Feelin’ hot hot hot
A Book Spreadsheet + Book Notes
I'm excited to share my latest "tracking" obsession.... haha. You all already know that I like to track things in my planner. And reading is no exception. On each monthly Habit Tracker page, I keep this little section down at the bottom. The dates are at the top, so I can correspond a "dot" to… Continue reading A Book Spreadsheet + Book Notes
Overcoming a mental hurdle, books + a meal plan!
Mental hurdle: a busy gym I love our local gym, but guess what? So do a lot of other people. And this makes me happy, because it's locally owned by a couple (and the owners are super nice), AND our gym provides an AMAZING place for teens and pre-teens to hang out somewhere safe and… Continue reading Overcoming a mental hurdle, books + a meal plan!
Better
I'm happy to report that my week has done pretty much a full turnaround. After spending much of Monday (okay, and part of Tuesday) sort of wrapped around the axle in a bit of a stress-induced spiral, I feel much better today. I credit this with the fact that yesterday afternoon (Wednesday) I decided to… Continue reading Better
Quotes/ Wisdom – Tribe of Mentors
I've been slowly plugging along through Tribe of Mentors by Timothy Ferriss, and I'm really enjoying it. I try to write down at least one quote from each interview in my notebook. The book is full of great WISDOM! I had no pictures to go with this post, so I found this owl. He is… Continue reading Quotes/ Wisdom – Tribe of Mentors
