Full rainbow view from soccer parking lot on Wednesday night 😍 Whew, this week has felt chaotic. I had a dentist appt Monday, meetings all morning Wednesday + a haircut in the afternoon, another quick appointment Thursday... My work days have felt all over the place. The evenings have not been any calmer. I am… Continue reading Friday misc./ busy week/ end of freshman year!
1- Ethan's tennis banquet Last night we attended Ethan's end-of-season tennis banquet at school. It was at 5:30 p.m. and way across town (for me anyway, from home...). Ivan met us there from work. Ethan drove me, despite being essentially "rush hour" on the "busy/ scary interstate route" (which is actually just his normal route… Continue reading Friday 5: Misc
May 15th today! Halfway point through May. SO, how's it going? Overall, not as bad as I thought, really. We have had to do a fair amount of picking and choosing/ skipping things, which in some ways I suppose is unfortunate, but also has helped wield down the number of things from this list.

Mish mash post here today of a few random things... #1: I finally ordered and received my printed Blog Book from our Costa Rica trip!

It finally subsided, but I awoke today with a still very… Continue reading Moving in the right direction…
Coming at you from Sick Day #2 of the week over here (well, more like Sick Day #5, technically, but I mean Sick Day #2 off of work). I started getting a sore throat on Friday but didn't think too much of it really. I had several long phone calls on Thursday and I sat… Continue reading Sick edition
As I suspected and forecasted, this is a BUSY season for us right now. Side note- It annoys me that I just said that. Because I kind of feel like I, or the collective "we", have all taken to calling every season "busy". Have you noticed that? This current season (April-May) is the busy spring… Continue reading “Busy seasons” + good stuff list

I just went back this morning (finally) and responded to every one of you! Secondly, I am holding myself back from writing… Continue reading Lately…The “Let’s Browse my Camera Roll” edition
HI and sorry about disappearing! For a whole week! I just realized my last post was last Friday, which is a very long time for me to go with no blog posts. I had told myself I wasn't allowed to write any regular posts until I finished my Smokies recaps, but I still have 2… Continue reading A check in! And oops, a Hawaii $$ related spiraling tirade…
