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
An interesting product! This weekend we stopped at Best Buy so Asher could get a new screen protector for his phone. I wandered around a little bit, looking at the latest tech gadgets. I'm rather out of the loop when it comes to "cool tech stuff", besides my iphone and Apple watch. Oh well. Part… Continue reading Interesting idea, weekend, etc.
Weekend: Asher was away this weekend (he's still away in Florida at swim camp- it's going great!) which felt weird! This weekend was probably my first WIDE OPEN weekend in forever- no soccer games or kids events of any kind! Ethan worked 7-3 both days, so with Asher gone, this was extra weird! I was… Continue reading Weekend + clothes + closet app
Happy Monday! This weekend was so nice. It was one of those weekends where the days felt long.... but not in a bad way. Both days started early around 6 a.m. and seemed to be filled with a lot of variety. That always makes time pass more slowly to me. Ethan worked both mornings, and… Continue reading Weekend holiday prep + our favorite Christmas cookies
Asher is off in Iowa, as mentioned previously. My weekend started Friday afternoon with helping to get him packed up and to the high school to leave by 4 p.m. It was a group of I think around 34 kids: 30 teenaged girls and 4 boys. Haha. Poor boys! They are very outnumbered. (It's high… Continue reading Weekend so far, holiday parties + wondering something….
In the words of Asher from about 8:50 p.m. last night: "Well, that was a fun weekend!" It was!! It was also a pretty full weekend, and I am kind of tired right now. But I'm going to need to rally, because it's a) only Monday and b) Halloween, meaning the festivities are not over… Continue reading Halloween Weekend: Events
Ethan is home safe and sound! 🙂 His group flew in last night fairly late and we had to pick him up at school at 11 p.m. The 8th graders didn't have to go to school today, but I still had to get up early and get Asher off to school and then work and… Continue reading Home from D.C. and pre-Halloweening
Ethan is off on his Philadelphia/ Washington D.C. trip! Here he is, all packed and ready to go Saturday night: My alarm went off at 3 a.m. and we were at school by 3:30 a.m. yesterday for him to catch the chartered bus to the airport. I had a pretty great day with him on… Continue reading He’s off! 8th grade class trip
Last night we managed to fit in a family fun night!! Lately, I've been lamenting some that life just feels "different". Ethan has a job now, so there are times that he would normally be free, but now instead has to work. If he's not working, he has soccer. Or something. Asher has had some… Continue reading Fitting in family fun…. with busy teens
Hello! I never got around to hopping on the blog during the last few days, so here's an update on some recent events in my life: Thursday: Ethan got BRACES! Woo!! Such mixed feelings, because of course it's kind of an adolescent rite of passage. It means he's growing up! It also means his smile… Continue reading The last 4 days
