Welcome to 2017. Wow, another year has already begun. Well, I am excited. This is going to be a great year. My oldest will start kindergarten this year and my youngest will be three years old soon. Where has the time gone? Anyway, I am excited for all of the adventures and memories that will be made this […]
6 weeks @ My New Gig
I have been at my new job now for almost a full six weeks. My family and I have had a lot of change. Then I think of all the change around us. I can’t say I am able to be super engaged in what is going on in the world right now for better or worse. It […]
Happy Friday & 2nd Work Week at New Job
Happy Friday to all! Wow, I can’t believe it’s October. It really has been a crazy last few months. It has almost been four months since we moved to Illinois. I am amazed at how well the boys have adapted to their new surroundings. They love their new school and new friends. It has been an adventure, but […]
Moving is hard
Well, I can’t believe my family and I moved two weeks ago. It’s hard to believe. I know it will get easier but change is so hard. The boys are doing really well so far, but I can only imagine what it must be like for them… I bought them two moving books, and my oldest had me […]
Judge less, empathize more
I find the older I get, the more I realize how pointless it is to judge others. Do I know what it’s truly like to live someone else’s life? Do I understand their struggles or hopes and dreams? Additionally, I find myself wanting to distance myself from others who focus on the flaws of others. It is interesting […]
Getting ready for the move
Wow, time is really flying by fast now. Even with going away parties and my replacement starting this past week at work, I am not sure it’s really hit me yet. I am excited and nervous about the new adventure in Chicago. I think once I have my last day at work and my boys have their last […]
Getting ready for the move…
On of my besties gave me this really cool good luck charm. I might just wear it around my neck if I need to (back up plan). I am going to really miss the great people I have gotten to know here in Omaha. My family and I have only lived here for about 17 months, but I […]
Week one of work out challenge
It was a success! I already have so much more energy. I know it’s only been a week, but I know I can maintain this. If I can train for a marathon, I can definitely manage to squeeze in 30 minute work outs. It might be a little tricky with the upcoming move, but I know I will […]
Birthday Fun
Today was my oldest son’s 4th birthday. I have to admit, it was a stellar day. My husband and I took off of work to spend the day with just him at the zoo. It has been a while since he had real time just with Momma and Dadda. He had so much fun. We definitely wore him […]
4 years ago
I wasn’t feeling so great four years ago. My husband and I checked into the hospital on this date. It kind of is a blur now, but in some ways I remember it quite vividly. My due date wasn’t until June 19th. I still had plenty of time for the baby to be born. It wasn’t even June […]
