A new woe: volunteering

November 5, 2025 Grateful Kae

Ethan had his end of season soccer dinner banquet Sunday night. The coach is, ahem, very wordy, and the entire event was slated to run from 5:30 pm- 8:30 pm and it definitely went the ENTIRE time. Don't get me wrong, it was great. But also, long, and meant we got home at about 9:15… Continue reading A new woe: volunteering

Friday 5: summer misc.

July 18, 2025July 18, 2025 Grateful Kae

1. Writing off a day --> turning it around On Wednesday I had a crummy day. I was just in a "mood", everything was sort of annoying me, I felt unfocused and distracted and irritated with life. Fortunately I do not have these sorts of days too often, but I suppose they happen to all… Continue reading Friday 5: summer misc.

On the end of things

May 26, 2024 Grateful Kae

Yesterday I think I might have attended my last ever club soccer game. (I say "might have" because I guess I don't know for sure, but it looks that way.) It feels a bit surreal and like an end of an era. The boys started doing little toddler soccer classes when they were TWO years… Continue reading On the end of things

2:1 Weekend in St. Louis

April 18, 2023April 18, 2023 Grateful Kae

This past weekend we had a rare weekend away: I'll call it a "2:1" weekend. 2 parents, 1 child. I don't think we'd ever really done this before! (the 2:1 thing). But it just so happened that Ethan had a soccer tournament in St. Louis, and Asher had a packed weekend himself at home- a… Continue reading 2:1 Weekend in St. Louis

Mediocre living?

February 19, 2023 Grateful Kae

First, Asher is feeling better! Not sure he's 100%, or at least his appetite is still a little weak, but overall he feels much better. He hasn't decided yet if he'll swim this afternoon or not. (Still sleeping now- will see what he thinks in a while.) But by last night he seemed peppy and… Continue reading Mediocre living?

Weekend so far + Blog update!

April 3, 2022April 3, 2022 Grateful Kae

Weekend Update: SPORTS It was supposed to be a really busy day yesterday. Ethan had 2 volleyball games in the morning ( 8 and 10 am), and then Ivan was going to take him to a soccer tournament all afternoon (an hour away). Well, it snowed again, as it does on April 2 in Wisconsin… Continue reading Weekend so far + Blog update!

A productive/nice weekend

September 20, 2021 Grateful Kae

For the first time in a few weeks, we didn't have a soccer tournament, AND Ethan's league game was a home game (aka- the best kind of soccer game, 3 minutes from our house). It still felt plenty full, but simply being HOME more was just what I needed. I've mentioned I had been feeling… Continue reading A productive/nice weekend

1st CC meet and TGIF

September 10, 2021 Grateful Kae

T to the G to the I to the F. This kinda felt like the longest short week ever! Pretty sure that my terrible night of sleep on Tuesday just really kickstarted it to be a bit rough. Plus it's just been a really full bunch of days. But the week has definitely been on… Continue reading 1st CC meet and TGIF
