Ahh, it feels SO NICE to have a mid-week departure planned, on the heels of a wide open weekend. This has most definitely not always been the case lately. On recent trips we've had multiple Friday night departures, which means working all week AND trying to get ready for trip... This Wednesday departure was planned… Continue reading Weekend: pre-spring break
I’m so relieved swim season is over now! It is SO FUN and there’s sadness when it ends too, but I was soooo excited to see nothing on the calendar this weekend. I spent Saturday mostly in a relaxed catch up mode. Nothing was “urgent” but I have a long list of things to do… Continue reading Finally breathing room
I think our lack of a buffer day after our Florida trip kind of snowballed and caught up with me a bit this weekend. As I mentioned, we got home last Sunday night and then dove right back into everything on Monday. While yes, I technically unpacked immediately, there were still things lingering around all… Continue reading A little snowball
We had a pretty low key weekend. Since I was away for the swim meet all last weekend, and this upcoming weekend we'll be traveling, I was happy to just be mostly around home. I'll admit I sometimes have thoughts that we are not doing a good enough job of "enjoying summer" or "seizing the… Continue reading Weekends + on NOT YOLO’ing…
Well, my ~5 day blogging streak last week was nice while it lasted! Ha. I then swiftly rebounded with a 5 day no blogging streak. 🤷♀️ In part, I was just busy doing other things, and also, I'm not sure my "modified" Whole 30 is really quite as interesting! I had the NICEST weekend, though!!… Continue reading Perfect weekend
First off, I realized I never shared the boys' Mother's Day cards. They were very sweet, and also very different, which actually made me smile, because the boys are different, of course! Asher, who is naturally artistic but sadly is not currently doing anything to continue fostering this (he used to do a ton of… Continue reading Things we’ve been up to/ Misc. Updates
My mom was in town this past week! So, I've been a little quiet in the blogosphere and just doing other things! It was so nice to have her here. She comes like this, alone, now and then and while of course I love to have both of my parents here, it's just a little… Continue reading Tuesday misc.
Almost spring break: We are now ~10 days out from spring break (!!!). We had a really chill weekend, and I'm so glad. The past ~5 years or so Asher has always had the State swim meet the weekend right before (or very close) to when we've left for spring break. I remember being out… Continue reading Almost spring break, lifeguarding + luck and the Chinese farmer
We had a really nice weekend! The main event for us was Asher's big Conference swim meet on Saturday, which is the beginning of the post-season for high school swim. They taper them to perform well at this meet, the boys all wear their fancy racing tech suits, etc. The meet was Saturday afternoon at… Continue reading The weekend, etc. + the internet gets me
Work has been SO BUSY lately that I have been more excited than usual when the weekends roll around. I mean, things are going well at work overall and much of the work is very interesting and engaging, but it's just very go-go-go all day long. And some days seem to stretch later than I… Continue reading Weekend and a little work mystery
GRATEFUL KAE
