(He’s going to kill me for that title) It’s been raining all day here, so we’ve been pretty house bound (except for trip to the grocery store and a twenty minute reprieve from the rain, during which Adrienne and I went for a brisk walk). Breakfast Admittedly, an odd one. We went to Meeker’s parents’ … Continue reading »

Sunny
It was finally warm today! So sunny and pleasant, it completely made my day. In fact, when we were just 30 minutes from the end of school – I forced my 3rd graders to go outside for extra recess, just so I could enjoy walking some laps around the soccer field in the sunshine. My … Continue reading »
Last Monday
No baby yet. I just got back from a brisk walk with Punky (it snowed again last night!) and I’m headed out the door to what I’m confident will be my last Monday at work. I have high hopes that Baby Cakes will make her entrance into this world this week. In the meantime, I’m … Continue reading »
Snack Time
I’m so excited about my snacks for the day – I had to show and tell. These things are the best. I found them in the bulk bins at Sprouts…cinnamon cream covered almonds. Hope your Mondays are as exciting as my snacks!
Apple Sweater
Skippity doo-dah. I love starting a week that’s going to be short!! Tomorrow is already the middle of the week! I started off this morning rather grumpy (my house was dirty, and that always puts a damper on my enjoyment of mornings), but after some exercise and breakfast (eaten in my clean car), I was … Continue reading »
Competent

I figured I was just doomed for a profession that sucked the life out of me and required 60 hours of work each week. But, it seems I’ve turned a corner! The third year is a lot easier! A significant change … Continue reading »

We didn’t have kids today (they come Monday), but we spent the day getting familiarized with our new igoogle system which I am … Continue reading »
Google It Up
I started this morning with a lot of moving. At 5:00am I walked the dog. At 6:00am I did some weight lifting, and at 7:00am I walked to school. The morning was so pleasant that I just didn’t want to stop enjoying it. However, lots of moving leads to lots of hunger. One egg, salsa, … Continue reading »
I love my food processor
Ahh, weekends are so nice. I did my share of relaxing/laying around today, and have managed to pepper in some wonderful food. Upon waking, I laid in bed for 45 minutes and read The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. I’m only about 70 pages in, but I’m already intrigued. When I crawled out of bed, … Continue reading »
Heart Warming
Today was a day. In an effort to stay positive, I’ll not go into too many details. I feel so blessed to have a break coming up! I went to the gym early this morning. I would have run outside, but it was snowing. I can run in the snow October- February, but when it’s … Continue reading »
