A pretty red winged blackbird on my walk yesterday morning 🙂 The last few weeks, I have noticed that my "toughest" days of the week are Tuesday and Wednesday. Probably not surprising, I guess- I feel like this might be the case for other people, too. Mondays I tend to feel fresh, ready to get… Continue reading Days of the week
I slept for 9 glorious hours last night!! In case you missed it, I woke up yesterday at 2 a.m. (after 4 hours of sleep). I did okay yesterday, overall....I had some bouts of sleepiness, but hung in there ok. But, I was feeling it by evening and announced to my family that I was… Continue reading Shopping: The in store/ online battle
I slept like total garbage last night. Sort of. I slept really great from 10 pm until 2 am, and then woke up. After laying there awake until ~4:20, I finally got up. In case you are wondering what time the birds wake up in my area (and start chirping), it is precisely 4:02 a.m.… Continue reading This and that
Oh man, I feel a bit exhausted! Not exactly the feeling I strive to have at 6 am on a Monday morning, but I guess it's a good exhaustion. The weekend felt BUSY. As in, pre-pandemic busy feel! I have mixed feelings on this, but I don't exactly see a way around it, either. A… Continue reading Weekend whirlwind
New phone! Exciting news. Haha. Ivan ordered me a new phone the other day and it arrived yesterday. I am the type who might use the same iphone for eternity if it were not for the nudging of my husband. (I've said before- sometimes I don't love change!) I generally adapt fully to whatever phone… Continue reading Smartphones & bedtime guilt
Currently= 37, High= 70. Just a modest 43 degree spread....:) Seems a little crazy, but bring on 70! I love my calendar quote from today. The gratitude thing is always easy when everything goes your way, so I especially like the reminders that point out that the ultimate goal is to be grateful always- highs… Continue reading Monday: gratitude goals, family time and kids’ books
1. Spring break starts tomorrow for my kids! Today is their last day of school until Monday, March 29th. It was supposed to be tomorrow, but I think their teachers are all getting their second doses of the vaccine today after school. Since apparently the 2nd dose causes more side effects in many people, the… Continue reading 3 Things Thursday
You know what I think is the worst thing for people who like (or need) to plan their time?? The service call. When the plumber/ electrician/ cable guy/ person with tools tells you they will show up at your house "between 12-5" or, in my case yesterday, "sometime before 3, but they'll call 20 minutes… Continue reading The enemy of time blocking
Hope you all had a great start to your week. Monday is in the books. It was a good day around here...I really wanted to start the week off strong. I had just wrapped up one "section" of some work on Friday and was starting on something new yesterday, so it felt fresh... which inspired… Continue reading Birthday gifts and sleepless nights
The boys didn't have school yesterday. It was the end of the 2nd quarter, so, I guess that means no school for a teacher work day. After all of the time they have been OUT of school, I will admit I feel a little annoyed when I see the no school days on my calendar.… Continue reading No school day + misc.
