First of all, thank you for such amazing and robust comments on my travel hacking post the other day!! I can see that it's sort of a "polarizing" topic, with people having quite strong arguments for and against it. I haven't had a chance to respond to all your comments yet, but I will soon,… Continue reading Tuesday randomness
Argh, I still have not had a spare second to sort my final Nova Scotia pics and get that post up. BUT I WILL! Because the last days were incredible and deserve all the attention too! So please stay tuned... hopefully soon...😫 (Promise you won't skip it just because it's late!!!) It feels like so… Continue reading Some days in the life
for a real time update. I still have 2 days left to recap from the Nova Scotia trip (well, 1 full day plus our departure day, which still included some fun bits!), but that is not happening today. I do have a couple minutes though, so I thought I'd just pop on quickly for a… Continue reading Interrupting your regularly scheduled programming…
Nothing too thrilling to post here today, but just popping in to say hello and ramble about some randomness. 🙂 Snow/Cold: After a pretty non-snowy winter so far, we got a bigger snowfall on Wednesday. This caused Ethan's school to start earlier and end earlier (they normally have a late start on Wednesdays) and Asher's… Continue reading This and that
If you've been reading a while, you'll know cardio and I have a complicated relationship. I've tried dabbling getting back into running twice this year, and neither time stuck more than about ~2 weeks (if that). 😩 I've had varying levels of success with Emkfit dance videos on Youtube. They're fun, short (~20 min) and… Continue reading Switching up cardio again + current workout schedule
🔷 Ivan turned 43 last Monday! Not the most exciting day to have a birthday (a Monday), but we were able to clear the decks and go out for (what else?) Mexican food. His brother + his gf joined us, and I stealthily told the waitress it was his birthday when he went to the… Continue reading Random life updates
1) I was walking Charlie the other afternoon, on one of our surprise-spring-warm-days (not today which is absolutely frigid again). As I approached this one corner house, I saw 2 little boys playing in the front yard. Maybe... 4 and 6? 5 and 7? Somewhere in there. Anyway, it was such a nice day and… Continue reading Random…Thoughts from A Walk with Charlie
1. Writing today from a coffee shop near Ethan's (new) high school.... It was my day to drive to the 7:30 a.m. strength and conditioning class. So Ethan and I were up and out the door by ~6:50 to pick up his friend and drive across town. This whole thing (the distance/drive) is going to… Continue reading Things on a Thursday
Happy Saturday, annnnnd, it's snowing right now. For the love of Pete, can the snow please go away already?!?! 😩😩 On the bright side, I am not the parent who had to leave by 6 a.m. to drive Asher one hour away to a 7:45 a.m. soccer tournament. I am the parent sitting with a… Continue reading Misc. Saturday: a dog, 1st high school event and a personality test!
I actually wasn't going to post today, because I just don't really feel like I have anything too exciting to share today. lol. But Asher has a swim meet this weekend (early session both days), so not sure if I'll be able to check in much over the weekend or not. This was a nice,… Continue reading The week
