Overall, this was a really nice weekend! Some highlights include: 🔷Walking to a new coffee shop with Ivan (only <10 min from home!). It's actually the location where our gym used to have a 24 hour location. Kinda funny to see the space revamped and now full of muffins and pastries and coffee treats instead… Continue reading Weekend highs and a big low
I have an extra skip in my step this weekend because the weather forecast is SO GOOD!!!!! As often has been happening to me on the weekends lately, I feel a little paralyzed, though. I technically have a lot of open space this weekend! But I have no real plans, yet, and can't quite decide… Continue reading Happy weekend!
Friday night we had a nice chill evening. The weather warmed up enough, sort of, that I took Charlie on a really long walk after work and talked to my dad on the phone. (It was not "warm" but better than it's been.) Then I ran out of time to shower (I never showered in… Continue reading Weekend so far
Awww, Asher's 1st high school swim season is officially over for him now! 😥 He swam at Sectionals yesterday, but as was completely expected, will not be swimming at Division 1 High School State next weekend. Several of the juniors and seniors on his team did qualify (you have to place in the top 24… Continue reading Swim’s over + V-Day
This past weekend was so fun!!! A bit of a busy whirlwind trip, but so fun. Ethan had a soccer game in Minneapolis, which is about a 4 hour drive from our house. (It was supposed to be two games, but ended up being only one- long story.) When I'd heard about the Minneapolis games,… Continue reading Minneapolis fun + friends!!
I woke up this morning with many things rolling around in my head that I wanted to do. I've actually struggled with this in general lately on the weekends- lots of random things to do, but none of them necessarily time sensitive, exactly, or urgent. So, on some "free" weekends like this one (i.e. not… Continue reading A Numerical List Style Saturday
Ohhhh I want this weekend to just keep going on!!! I liked this weekend so much. Friday was the big snow day, so although I worked, it had a "let's all just hunker down" feel. Then no work or school for any of us Saturday, Sunday OR today! (MLK Jr. Day Holiday) I feel like… Continue reading A perfect week and can the long weekend please continue?
Father Winter sure stopped by this week around here. I don't know the exact totals, but something in the 8 inch range on Tuesday, and yesterday into today we got hammered with another ~12 inches. I envision a wintery, mythical creature like this waving a snow wand over Wiconsin: I've been generally feeling it! Yes,… Continue reading Snowy snowy Saturday…
Feeling good about this Saturday!! Ivan took Asher to swim practice (6:50 a.m.) and then dropped Ethan at work nearby (7:00 a.m.). They took Charlie with them in the car, so I stayed home and did this: Very nice start to the day! Quickly showered after that and then picked up Asher from swim practice… Continue reading Saturday accomplishments
The Packer game kicks off in 20 minutes, so I don't have much time. Just jumping on to say hola and give a quick weekend update. The weather has been BEAUTIFUL. Just beautiful. Well, yesterday and today, anyway. Friday night Ethan had a 4:30 p.m. soccer game and it was overcast and spitting a few… Continue reading A “it’s really feeling like fall now” weekend update
