It’s October and we are in full Fall mode over here. The weather is still in the high 80’s but that’s ok—-it’s the same thing every year and I think considering the way 2020 is going, we will take fun wherever we can get it.
Read MoreThe Summer of 2020 will be remembered for years to come. This summer was full of things we’ve never experienced before as a generation. We were at home with our family in order to keep them safe, everything was closed and then opened again, but not really open open. Parents were working from home while simultaneously being the caregivers to our children.
Read MoreWe have had quite an exciting week over here. After five and a half long months, the girls have returned to school. Last Monday, Macie started Kindergarten and Henley started Second Grade.
Read MoreFriday has a whole new meaning in this environment. Yes I am still going to be at home, in my joggers, not going anywhere but I will be doing it without working and homeschooling. This week has been a lot—-professionally, mentally, emotionally. I need a break. I need to put my social media timers back on my phone, grab a good book, and sit by the pool all.weekend.long! I need to turn off the news and turn off my mind.
Read MoreToday was the first attempt at working from home and “homeschooling”, I use that term loosely. We started our day around 8:30. The girls went to the playroom and Ted and I to the office. Within the first 30 minutes, I had lots of requests for help
Read MoreDay 9. Today was almost like every other Sunday, we had a breakfast of bacon and egg (although prepared at home instead of by First Watch). We grocery shopped and meal prepped and are now ending the day with some time by the pool. However, in addition to all of this, we also created daily schedules for Henley and Macie for the week. I start remote working full-time tomorrow so the girls will need something to work out, mostly independently
Read MoreMarch is here and contrary to what I said in January, I have not started back blogging at all. I am so torn on blogging. I love doing it and that should be enough right?! But then I get in my head and start wondering if anyone is actually even reading this——and if not, what’s it all for. I am trying to change that mentality because I enjoy it and if no one reads it, that should be ok. We are currently in a worldwide pandemic, I’m
Read MoreIt’s 2020, a new decade. It’s hard to believe the hype over Y2k was 20 years ago. If you know me or have followed me for any amount of time, you know I love a new year. I love the reset of goals and intentions. I love the house returning from Christmas chaos to orderly calm. I love the overall freshness of a new year.
Read MoreOctober is here, you wouldn’t know it from standing out side but we aren’t letting that stop us. This fall we have a lot planned between the girls normal activities, our family trips, and our fall/Halloween activities. My goal for this season is to savor it. The girls have either gymnastics or
Read MoreIt’s been a while, almost a year to be exact. I’m missed this. I’ve missed sharing through writing and photography. I’ve missed having a creative outlet. I’ve missed exercising this side of my brain.
I’m an accountant. My day-to-day life is full of rules and guidelines, math that makes sense. There is problem solving and analytical skills required but very little true creativity. There are no artistic expressions
