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
Happy belated Halloween. Hope you all had a fun and spooky day! 🎃 We got our first snowfall yesterday morning. Here is Charlie licking it to find out what the heck this cold wet stuff is: And now, on to November! Wow. There is a big part of me that keeps thinking it is like,… Continue reading November!
You all know I am a fan of silly memes and basically anything that gets a laugh or smile out of me, randomly. I've accumulated a couple fun ones lately: #1: Made me laugh hysterically. I saw this one right after our especially busy summer, with multiple houseguests from all sides of the family. Our… Continue reading Fall and Friday Funnies
How is it Thursday already?! I feel like this week is flying by. As promised, I'm just checking in to see if my week has, indeed, resembled any semblance of normal, or not. I'd say.... sort of. Ha.

Okay, this week marks the beginning of week 4 of owning a puppy. What?! Already? Since we got him, life has not felt "normal" at all.

Thank you to all of you! I felt… Continue reading Happy…. chaos?
Happy Friday. Whew, it's been a week. A couple unfortunately non-bloggable stressful things popped up, but hopefully we're on the downswing now. Here are 5 things on this Friday.... 1.

The entire high school gets… Continue reading Friday 5: kid updates, parenting + tech webinar, 100 days to 2024?!
(Actually, backing up beyond the weekend to Thursday, which was the last day I posted.) Updates Asher: We're now firmly settled into September. Although he started much later than Ethan, Asher's school year is officially in that "underway" feel now (i.e. no longer feels like the "first week"). Seems like all is going well at… Continue reading Weekend updates
Gosh, I didn't mean to go 6 days without posting, but apparently I did. Well, it's not that surprising, because my life continues to feel a bit like a tilt-a-whirl over here... Backing up to the weekend: So what I wanted to do this weekend looked about like this: I did not, however, curl up… Continue reading Catching up/ a Sept. weekend
TGIF... we made it to the end of Week 1 of the school year. 🎉🎉 Now, instead of celebrating yet, I need just one quick minute to be negative. I have a Pet Peeve to get off my chest. The best representation for how I feel about this current situation is: Yes, a big ol'… Continue reading A Pet Peeve and good advice
