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.
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.
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
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
Recent Updates: 🔷 Friday night soccer! Last Friday were Ethan's first games of the season. He's basically on both JV AND Varsity, so being a holiday weekend, I cut out early from work to make it ~40 minutes across town to his 3:45 pm JV game (where he had an assist + a goal, yay!)… Continue reading Week updates and Friday Fashion #2
Okay, I promise I will not write a third post about the Mexico trip decision. 😂 The final decision is Sunday- Sunday and I'm refusing to even think about it anymore (though I don't think Ivan has actually bought the plane tickets yet, so with my luck, after all this, it will turn out that… Continue reading “Non-Mexico trip decision” life updates
Ethan sort of goes back to school today! Ahhh. (Just a short orientation day, which as a sophomore basically means going to get his picture taken and receive new school ID and some other misc. tasks.) His first real day is tomorrow! I always think it's nice to start on a Thursday, to ease in… Continue reading Back to school- round 1
A few random things on this Tuesday: #1. I wrote a guest post! On Sunday NGS published my guest post as part of her special 20th anniversary blog series. Every Sunday a guest blogger shares some sort of "20 Things" list of their choice. Mine was, of course, 20 Things I'm Grateful For. I had… Continue reading Tuesday misc.
This weekend, in comparison to last weekend's intense weekend, had some very welcome breathing room in it. Asher ended up getting a last minute invite to go up north on Thursday afternoon with his friend and his friend's dad to their lake house. So he was gone. He got home Sunday night, at 9:30 p.m.… Continue reading A much needed breather + blogger meet up!
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've maybe hinted at it here and there, and people with an observant… Continue reading BIG CONFESSION time + a life-altering mid-year goal
GRATEFUL KAE
