How did a trip to Los Olivos come about out of the blue?? Well, we had friends come over last weekend, and you know what that means: time to uproot our entire existence, rethink all our life (and decor) decisions, and deep clean the house. It took a couple days to get everything done and…
I hadn’t been feeling my usual anxiety about summer break (thanks Lexapro!) but we were about 2.5 hours into it, when I remembered why it’s so damn overwhelming. Stevie has what is known as “zero chill”, officially diagnosed by ME. And when his schedule is disrupted (or non-existent) it can be quite the challenge. His…
Hello, hello, hello! Hope you have had a pleasant week. Things feel like they are really changing quickly around here. Of course, after the way this last year dragged on while simultaneously flying by, everything feels a bit out of sorts. But some sense of “normal”, so to speak, is at our fingertips. We have…
You ready to talk about mental health? I always find it so interesting that my intentions with blogging come and go so easily. There is steady motivation for a period of time, excited to write again… until I’m not. I start to take more days off than I intend to. But this time around, it’s…
Okay everyone! I have owned roller skates for approximately 72 hours, so I obviously wanted to share everything from my expert point of view. LOL! As an expert, I can objectively judge my own skills and tell you that I’m not very good at skating. But it is making me incredibly happy to try. I…
Oooh this week. It was a tough one. I won’t bore you with all the gory details, but I will say that by Friday, I was freakin’ D-O-N-E with everything and everyone. Calgon take me away. But we had weekend plans for the first time in about a million years, so I had to pull…
Oops! I fell off the blogging wagon last week, and today wasn’t looking so great either. I honestly just completely forgot about it. My mind has been so preoccupied with doctor appointments and decisions regarding sending Stevie back to school (along with all the normal preoccupations, of course). After talking to his cardiologist, she gave…
The week after Spring Break heading into Easter was a little rough getting back on track. I went through my Monday thinking it was Thursday. And that’s just never a good way to start! But as we wrapped things up on Friday, I still sat in awe of where the heck the week went… and…
Well hello! Spring Break is officially coming to an end and we officially took our little trip to La Quinta. Whenever we return from a trip, no matter how small, I always feel like we conquered some big task. I know, I know. Vacations aren’t supposed to be a task. But when you add up…
This week felt ultra-productive, any guesses why? Well! I got dressed and left the house exactly twice to get my hair done AND go to a doctor’s appointment. Haha. If you’d asked me in the before times, that would’ve been a really slow couple days, let alone week. The doctor probably also felt like a…
