Hola from a Mexican wedding

November 18, 2023November 18, 2023 Grateful Kae

At a wedding tonight for one of Ivan’s friend’s sons! Thoughts: 1) Having fun! 2) I really wish I were a good Latin dancer. 3) Mexican weddings are the same, but also, very different. 🙂 Felicidades a los novios! 🥂

A few good recent purchases!

November 13, 2023 Grateful Kae

🔷 A 50 foot dog leash We have a fenced in yard, but our backyard also has a lot of landscaping beds and other places Charlie can get into mischief. He is also definitely still working on recall (i.e. coming to us when called) and currently has very selective hearing. 😆 Letting him off leash… Continue reading A few good recent purchases!

Overdoing everything

November 10, 2023 Grateful Kae

I mentioned I joined an "Advice for New Puppy Owners" Facebook group recently. It's been both interesting and helpful. It's a very active group, and people post questions, discussion, advice, etc. It's been nice to know there are other people "in my same boat", learning as they go and figuring out all this puppy stuff.… Continue reading Overdoing everything

Late night post

November 9, 2023 Grateful Kae

Sneaking this in at the last hour! Can't miss a day in NaBloPoMo. I just got home from the gym about 20 minutes ago. It's currently 8:59 p.m. Inspired by Kelsey on the recent Girl Next Door podcast, I have been really trying to get a little creative with my workout schedule. On their great… Continue reading Late night post

Christmas ponderings

November 7, 2023 Grateful Kae

Halloween is over, so Christmas is somehow on the horizon already. First order of business.... take down my Halloween stuff. Which is all definitely still up, including the orange outdoor lights. Eh, what's the rush. But I am feeling a small sense of urgency to get a move on in the Christmas department, because we… Continue reading Christmas ponderings

Monday struggles… deleted post

November 6, 2023 Grateful Kae

I just wrote a whole post blabbing on about feeling discombobulated today and some things that weren't working and what the potential causes were. And then I deleted the whole post. I don't know, it was annoying me to even read about it. So if I don't want to read about it, why would you?… Continue reading Monday struggles… deleted post

Sunday scenes + dog humor

November 5, 2023 Grateful Kae

Happy Daylight Savings Day to all who celebrate. 😉 I definitely LOVE the "fall back" way more than the "spring ahead". Yay for more sleep! And this weekend, I needed that extra hour. As you know, my Thursday-Friday were very short in the sleep department. And today, I'm writing from an Aquatic Center lobby while… Continue reading Sunday scenes + dog humor

Saturday misc. + books

November 4, 2023November 4, 2023 Grateful Kae

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

A rough night

November 3, 2023 Grateful Kae

Last night was a long, stressful night! My parents came to town yesterday afternoon so my dad could work on the bathroom remodel. Well, everything was going fine, and we were watching a little TV with the boys before bed. Charlie, who has actually been much better lately in his Witching Hour, decided to put… Continue reading A rough night
