We are lucky this weekend to have a few days that won’t be blazing hot. Don’t worry it’ll be back up in the upper 90’s real soon. And also don’t worry, our AC just broke. Eye rolls all the way to heaven. But today, just for today, we enjoyed a beautiful picnic lunch with our…
Month: September 2020
transitional style
I guess these days the only times you’ll see me get dressed before dinner time is when I skip my morning workout, in an attempt to feel human and somewhat pulled together. I know I talk about self-care a lot and how important it is for me to simply get dressed. But the self-care has…
Buttoned-up
What’s up, what’s up, what’s up! Not much going on here, this weekend I was having major urges to BUY BUY BUY new jeans. So I did order jeans to try from the Madewell Insider’s Sale, but also felt it would be important to see what I already have. I was assuming nothing would fit,…
Sneakers
Dare I say… today seemed kinda like a normal-ish Saturday? We did some cleaning up at home, I dyed some clothing, we had some bomb vegan burgers for lunch, followed by Target shopping (for the first time in 6 months!), and some extra screen time to round out the afternoon. I have to admit, the…
Thrifted
As usual, I’m feeling relieved and exhausted at the end of another homeschool week. Stevie had some real positive moments this week and I think he is handling all of this so much better than I am. Also, after sooo many days of yucky smoky skies, we were happy to see most of the sky…
Zoom Ready
Today’s theme for the #monthlystylechallenge was “Zoom on top”. I rarely need to be Zoom ready and am usually still in my workout clothes for Stevie’s video sessions, but if I needed to look presentable — and couldn’t wear sunglasses indoors — mascara and dry shampoo would be my only 2 requirements. outfit details This…
Monochrome Monday
After the weekend we had, I knew our Monday would run into some rough patches. And I was right about that. I think we certainly can’t avoid it all together with these circumstances. But the good news is, we saw the sun and shadows today (which means some of the smoke is clearing) and we…
Just a Tee
This weekend has been… another weekend! Same old, same old, stuck at home. Made even more discouraging by the fact that we can’t really be outside due to smoky skies. So there’s been way too much screen time, and way too many snacks because I just don’t have the mojo to be the constant entertainer.…
A Closet Hero
Today we had a big ophthalmology appointment for Stevie. These visits are now done annually vs. monthly or quarterly when he was a wee one. But I totally forgot how long the appointments can go. This year, his eyes needed to be dilated, and I’m sure you can imagine how that went. He simply didn’t…
Minimal Packing List: Sunny San Francisco
I haven’t made a packing list in quite awhile (for obvious reasons!) But while temperatures here in Los Angeles soared well above 110 degrees over this holiday weekend, my heart and mind took me to a happier place. Sunny San Francisco. I don’t think San Francisco is typically referred to as “sunny”, but over the…
