Okay, I'm back with my Personal goals. I aimed to come up with 5 for each domain to hopefully total 25. (As a reminder, my domains are Personal, Health/Fitness, Kids/Family, Household, and Other). 1. Read 25 for 25 This came to me when I saw "Read 25 minutes in 2025" is Gretchen Rubin's public challenge… Continue reading 2025 Goals: Personal
(I have nothing spooky or freaky to share in this post, besides deciding to title it "Freaky Friday" because it's Friday the 13th. 😆) 1- IT'S BEEN A WEEK.

Eek, this is a hard post for me to write. Buckle up, it's a looong one. I have a big confession. I have a very bad habit that I have never really delved into on this blog but am going to today!

I… Continue reading How the month is going

Good morning! It's a 5:30 a.m. swim practice day. These are currently "necessary" in Asher's schedule, because he is so busy with volleyball + soccer right now that he can't get to as many of the evening practices. Even with the early Wednesdays in the mix, he's only making it to swim about 3x/ week… Continue reading Time tracking experiment
