1-    I turn 39 on Monday. Um, yay? My SIL sent me the best gift: Totally unnecessary but man, what a fun surprise in the mail yesterday! 2- My parents are visiting! I’ve been working, but I still think it’s been fun for…

I wanted to revisit last week’s post for a moment. Particularly to note that this the template I drew out is a fantasy. I do feel like it’s useful to have an ideal, pie-in-the-sky schedule in my mind, so I know what I am…

Not going to lie: I went into the weekend with low expectations. But it ended up being really nice. Busy, but (relatively) relaxing. Josh didn’t work much which . . . is basically what made it amazing (there was a ~1.5-2 hr chunk on…

I commented to Josh yesterday that I am excited to one day have Big Kids. 3 children that don’t need to be hovered over! I can’t even imagine what that future will be like. (Though I did realize that by the time G reaches…

Hooray! I can see the entire screen again. I bit the bullet and ordered a new MacBook Pro approximately 1 year ahead of my standard new laptop every 5 years schedule. This particular edition was annoyingly expensive, and has no USB drive (seriously?). But…
