Oh man, this last week felt like a total blur!! I think I touched on this already, but I felt like I crammed about 3 weeks’ worth of stuff into this single week between Nashville and Mexico. Work was also insane. Ivan left for Mexico Thursday at 4 pm, so I was also on my… Continue reading Last few days/ arrival to Mexico!
I'm home! Yesterday, Friday, was Day 5 in Nashville and my final conference day. I was glad it was an abbreviated day (starting at 8:00, ending at 2:00 instead of 5:00) because I really was suddenly starting to feel at my saturation point of listening to presentations! I mean, it really was a great conference… Continue reading Day 5 Nashville- the end!
Day 4 already! Second to last conference day. In keeping with fall theme, burnt orange/brown pants with navy tank. It was another great day of presentations but oof, my brain is kinda starting to go to mush at this point. Like I already said, these have been FULL days of information overload. Lunch today had… Continue reading Day 4 Nashville- hittin’ the town!
These are not the most exciting “travel” recaps, probably because this obviously isn’t true travel! It’s getting late and I took a shockingly low number of pictures today, lol, so I’ll keep this short and sweet. But I want to keep up my little streak, just because. 🙂 Today was the first day of the… Continue reading Day 3 Nashville- more work, (slightly!) less fun
Whew, this was a long day! I’m cooked. We had to be downstairs by 7:30 a.m. for breakfast. Then it was a FULL day of presentations. Like legit 8-5 nonstop with 1 hour for lunch (which was served upstairs in a different ballroom and was actually AMAZING) and a couple of short coffee breaks. No… Continue reading Nashville day 2- long day!
My first solo trip in a long long time! Like I said, I know other people travel solo ALL the time, either for work or pleasure, and traveling especially for a conference is totally commonplace for many others. But it’s really not for me!! I have traveled solo on multiple occasions in my life- including… Continue reading Nashville! Day 1
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
Background: We have to go to Mexico for our goddaughter's quinceanera in October. (Not going = not an option. I've mentioned before that quinceaneras are a Big Deal and as the godparents, we apparently have some specific roles during the ceremony and party. Kind of nervous about what this all entails? Not a huge fan… Continue reading WWYD?! Advice needed, especially parents of high schoolers!
Okay, it's a gloomy, overcast Saturday here in Wisconsin, so let's fly away back to warm and sunny Costa Rica and Hawaii! Costa Rica Hawaii Since these two destinations are kind of like "cousins" (very clear similarities, but also very clear differences!), we naturally found ourselves comparing them. Especially because we went to both places… Continue reading Costa Rica vs. Hawaii
Saturday, June 15- Sunday, June 16 (*until we meet again) Saturday was our last last day, though for all practical purposes I considered Friday our last real day. However! Our flight was not until 7:30 p.m. Saturday evening, so technically we still had a big chunk of the day to enjoy. The evening/ overnight flight… Continue reading Days 16-17: A Hui Hou* Hawaii! Final adventures + home.
