It's a gloomy, rainy Sunday here and all I feel like doing right now is cuddling up with a blanket and.... well, that's about it. Haha. But I've been puttering around on the computer for too long now already (caught up on some blog comments, sketched out a MEAL PLAN for the week, etc.), and… Continue reading Quick Sunday post/ dinner woes update/ other misc

Vertical ownership
I peeked back in my "Blog Ideas" folder in Google Keep and saw I had once jotted down that I wanted to talk about Vertical Ownership regarding household responsibilities (aka "who does what"). I'll keep this specific to between me and Ivan, not counting stuff the boys help out with. IVAN: -cell phone related stuff-… Continue reading Vertical ownership
Why is this always so hard
Yes, a dramatic title.... to talk about cooking + meal planning. Seriously though, why does this always feel so hard?! It annoys the living daylights out of me, for various reasons. First, compared to I think a lot of families, we don't even cook that much. We are not above eating out pretty frequently. 🤷♀️… Continue reading Why is this always so hard
Squeezing in some fall fun, a planning challenge, and Monday misc.
I still need to get one more Mexico post up (to recap the actual quinceanera!) but not feeling like sorting through all those pictures today. I think I'll just do a Monday Misc. post here with some random, real time life updates. 🙂 Charlie sleeping: First, how sweet is this pic of Charlie? I took… Continue reading Squeezing in some fall fun, a planning challenge, and Monday misc.
Sandwich week, fall stuff, etc.
The week/ weekend: This is a bit of a weird week, as I have just one week home sandwiched in between 2 weeks away. I was rather exhausted this past weekend after Nashville! I was glad to hear on a call yesterday that I was not alone. My boss said she took super long naps… Continue reading Sandwich week, fall stuff, etc.
End of September
Here we are, somehow 1 day away from the end of September! I read all the time management things and I think about this topic a lot, yet I still can't seem to figure out how to get time to slow down. (Though in other ways, September actually has simultaneously felt moderately long? I don't… Continue reading End of September
Night out + dog training
I have been feeling bummed lately that I just can't keep up in the blogosphere.... I know it's okay, but it's still a disappointment. I love this blogging community and I love writing here, but work has been SO BUSY. Mornings and evenings and in-betweens always seem so frequently spoken for, too! Argh. Anyway, I… Continue reading Night out + dog training
The week
Argh, somehow a whole week has passed yet again since I've posted. 😦 This was a good week, though! It felt quite full, but I felt like for the most part, the pieces fit together decently well. (Well, besides any blogging windows, I guess.) I really tried to more intentionally PLAN the week (more than… Continue reading The week
Freaky Friday 5
(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. Outside of work, it's actually been a nice week in many ways. 🟡 I went to both of Asher's VB games this week (Monday and Wednesday)… Continue reading Freaky Friday 5
An astute comment
On my post the other day about feeling stretched thin and like I don't have a lot of margin in my days, a very astute commenter named Margot said this: When I read this, I had one of those, DUH! moments. I feel like she really hit the nail on the head. A lot of… Continue reading An astute comment
