Whirlwind of a week. I feel as thought that’s a running theme these days. I think that’s a good thing? Sunday Although I am looking forward to slowing down a bit and focusing on my writing. I bought a new NaNo mug to replace the one I broke, and I used it for the first…

2021 October – Week 42
I’m a woman of few words again this week. Life is BUSY. Sunday But I spotted Mormon Row in the background graphics of Jon Stewart’s new show. Monday And got greeted enthusiastically several times by my neighbor’s cat. Tuesday I also think the students had fun with some of the lessons this week, which is…
2021 October – Week 41
A heavy week. Here were the moments that brought smiles to my face. Sunday Hiking with Aung at Blue Mountain Lake… Monday Smelling the hydrangeas… Tuesday Taking care of Bailey Boo while my dad was recovering from his surgery… Wednesday Remember moments with Michelle (it’s been 13 years!)… Thursday Letting Bailey Boo hang in the…
2021 October – Week 40
A full week… So full, in fact, that I’m too behind on things to reflect much. I’m not sure if that’s a good thing— because I’m out there living life— or if it’s a bad thing— because I’m not slowing down to appreciate that life. Either way, it was my life this week. Sunday I…
2021 September – Week 39
I thought I was ready for the week. Sunday It started off so lovely. I caught a sunrise scene at Taughannock Falls and spent the rest of the day readying myself for the week. Laundry: check. Groceries: check. Meal prep: check. Emails: check. I was really on a roll Sunday… Monday And as far as…
2021 September – Week 38
The weeks feel very full this month. I don’t know that that’s a bad or good or something in between thing. It’s just a thing. Every day feels poured to the brim with tasks, interactions, events, responsibilities… Sunday Tried to slow down a little on Sunday after all the wedding festivities. Tragedy struck. I knocked…
2021 September – Week 37
Our first full week of school was rather long. It was by no means a bad week, but it felt like a lot of days. A lot of full days. I’m still adjusting to the schedule. Actually, it’s not so much the schedule I’m adjusting to, but the whole being on thing. Teachers have to…
2021 September – Week 36
It’s here. Let’s do this. Sunday Finally finished (I think?) the signs for Nick and Ashley’s wedding over the long weekend. Monday Can I just say? Loved getting my feet wet with the Superintendent’s Conference Days as soon as the calendar ticked over to 9/1 and then having the long weekend to fully prepare for…
2021 September – Week 35
I made the most of the summer— I can say that with certainty, and that’s a good feeling. Plus, the decision that destroyed me for the better part of two weeks has started to fade in my rearview because I know I made the right choice. That’s also a good feeling. Sunday I spent one…
2021 August – Week 34
Alas. The last full week of summer. Sunday At least it started with coffee IN PERSON with my morning writing group, who are just as lovely in real life as their heads are on Zoom. Monday Spent a handful of hours getting the classroom reorganized and going through some of the materials the retiree next…
