Today

Well, today was not my best day so far, but I ran 4 miles. I hopefully sweat all of my frustrations out. Some people do hot yoga. Not me, I run probably with a not so happy face. There is construction work going on all around my house, but I don't care. I run anyway. Why? I have […]

Working out has been a struggle 

Trying to work out with any sort of routine has been hard for me. I guess I should just focus on the fact that I am trying at least. I would really like to work out early in the morning, and I do sometimes. I am signed up for a 5k in October, and I definitely think this […]

Well…

Today started off pretty well. I was snuggling with my boys. We just moved into our new house. I get a little disoriented and fatigued by the physical change of moving to a new house. Most people might think I am a pro at moving by now, but I am probably one of the worst types of people […]

The little things

Trying to keep my sanity through this moving process while also adjusting to my new part time job (I’m probably not always the most pleasant of people, but I’m trying to stay positive and focused on the finish line.) Can’t wait for it all to be over, but I am trying to stop and enjoy the little things.  […]

Plan less, Play more

I needed to read this article today. I am a big offender of planning and over planning. (Just ask my husband about our trip to San Fran before kids were in the picture. I don’t think I gave ourselves a moment of down time the entire trip, oops!) Now I feel like a weight has been taken off […]

The 3 months and loving it

Well, it’s official. We have lived here now 3 whole months. I have to say that I absolutely love it here. I feel like we have been so welcomed here. The boys have adapted so well, and they are loving their new school. We are all doing super well. My mom’s club is fantastic, and my part-time job […]

Create your village

Well, it’s Monday morning, and I am about to start my new job. I have a little bit of time before I go into my new office. There is a Starbucks near where I work so you can take a guess as to where I am right now. I don’t plan on making a habit out of this, […]

Easter Egg fun!

Well, we had a blast tonight. It is so fun to go to events like this with the boys. I try to soak in every moment. It’s times like this that I realize how fast the last few years have flown by, and I know they probably will continue to go even faster. We are excited to visit […]

Great weekend

What a fantastic weekend with all of my dudes. My hubby and I had s much needed date night. Nothing fancy, but I dressed up because I wanted to wear something nice. The boys had fun at a parent’s night out gymnastics event. Today was so nice outside, and we had a blast at a baseball game. I’m […]

Family

All I can say is that social media definitely can help bring people together or at least provide the initial connection. I feel very appreciative and happy to know that I have more family out in the world.  I have a pretty substantial family tree to add to my Lewis electronic family tree. I always knew I had […]
