*Walking. I've walked M, T and Th this week so far. Weather was crummy early in the week/ cold, so I used the treadmill. Yesterday, we had a beautiful, warm day, so I got outside for 20 minutes before starting work. *Stretching and workouts. My workout on the schedule was a simple one- a recovery… Continue reading Some stuff about my week
Today is Good Friday, and Easter weekend is upon us. I feel like I should have some kind of profound post prepared to honor the important significance of this day in my religion (Christianity), but, I do not. I've got nothin'. I'm sorry. But at the same time, I feel like when it comes to… Continue reading I’ve got nothin’
WORK: Work has been a bit intense lately. The long vacation break was very restorative for me, but I returned to sort of a chaotic scene. I mentioned before that I'm newly responsible for covering a bunch of tasks for someone who recently left. All in all, it's going okay, but you know how it… Continue reading Today’s thoughts: Work + Health
We're in that kind of fuzzy stage right now after vacation, trying to get back in the groove. It's harder when it's a long vacation, like this one was. Sleep/ jet lag has been so-so. I've been waking up really early and unable to fall back to sleep- around 3 am on Sunday (1st day… Continue reading Adjusting to normal life
Gosh, it feels like it's been a while, which is so rare for me. We were gone all weekend (Friday --> Sunday night) for the Wisconsin State Championships swim meet and yesterday kind of felt like a whirlwind, too. My life feels a little weird right now. Our spring break trip is coming up very… Continue reading Checking in & good/bad list
Last night Ivan and I had plans to meet a co-worker of his and his fiancee for dinner. This is a guy that Ivan is quite close with and has gotten to know really well over the last several years. They actually meet for a drink after work most Thursdays. Not always, but more often… Continue reading A fun night out
The weekend flew by this time...boo. Sunday night, Asher even said, "Wait, it's Monday already tomorrow? The weekend went so fast!" I'm not really sure why, since for us, it was actually a lower key weekend than usual. (No full day swim meets or tournaments or anything like that.) It was a good weekend, though!… Continue reading Little life catch-up
ARGH the Olympics are killing me here. I'm ready for a western country to host the Olympics so the coverage can be in MY time zone!! hahahaha. The last several Olympics have been in Asia which obviously means a HUGE time difference. It actually doesn't work out too bad from China, because our prime-time viewing… Continue reading Late nights + a happy kid
Saturday was nice. We had only one "anchor event" at 9:15, which was Ethan's basketball game. After that, we didn't have any plans. I did make a list of like 7 things I wanted to get done yesterday/ this weekend...but I ended up checking off only 2 (so far). The weekend isn't over. 🙂 However,… Continue reading Saturday in pics
Ooh, some great comments yesterday on my post about Nathan Chen/ the idea of him being "good at life"/ uber talented at everything, apparently! I was going to respond individually but figured I'd just comment back publicly in a new post. The main underlying theme from most people seemed to be a sense of skepticism… Continue reading Follow-up/ good at life
