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…
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…
I was invited to participate in a Summer to Fall Styling Session with 3 other IG pals: @iamjoellen / @cutelittleacorn / @thehautehomemaker. I personally can’t really enjoy dressing for Fall with this outrageous weather, but I still love pretending. And hopefully some of the ideas are helpful. You can find my IGTV video here! outfit…
I have reached that point again. Random locations popping up in my browser. Great road trip ideas. Social distancing activities… somewhere other than here. I have to admit, our impending heat wave has a lot to do with my current search engine finds. I don’t even know if we could swing a weekend getaway, but…
Another day where I didn’t even have time to get dressed until after school around 3pm. I often wonder why I bother, but I have already lost so much of myself to parenthood — and now parenthood during a pandemic — it’s a small thing that helps me feel a teeny tiny bit grounded. If…
Hope you all had a nice weekend. We went out for lunch in downtown trying to feel some normalcy — not sure if that worked. I spent some time in the fountain pool with Stevie, which seriously cracks me up. And we all did the usual catching up from the week. Even squeezed in a…
Welp. It’s Friday night. I got dressed for about 2 hours today to make a post office run and pick up some dinner. WOW! I’m keeping my fingers crossed that Stevie will take a little swim and maybe even sit through 15-20 minutes of a movie tonight. Then maybe we will feel like the weekend…
As usual, this is the time of year (capsule wardrobe or not) that I start to feel really bored with my clothes. I have felt an energy shift and just want to spend time browsing and shopping and thinking about new stuff. I want new clothes BAD. The hot weather doesn’t help at all, since…
Heading into week two of home school and I think we’re ready. A slow start last week was nice, and I don’t know that I’m necessarily looking forward to being more busy. But it’s a different kind of busy than playing ALL DAY LONG. I guess I like to have something pointed and productive to…
Heatwave friendly outfit! Even though I have a whole capsule dedicated to warm weather, getting dressed in an intense heatwave is not really very my idea of fun. So last week was kinda slow for official “outfit” posts. Besides that, Stevie started school, I’m trying make time for exercise and laundry and dinner, along with…
