Yay! I'm on time for this post this month! It's been a crazy few weeks since September got going as we had to settle back into the school routine and the additional after school activities. The boys are still online for school but have been able to sign-up for a couple in-person activities. Teaching for... Continue Reading →
So maybe the post is late again this month, but it's earlier than last month's! I'll count that as a win. In August we took two long weekend trips to the beach. Those were surprisingly relaxing despite the intensity of keeping a hawk eye on three boys around water! Thank goodness for little bodies that... Continue Reading →
Well hello July and the second half of 2021. I'm starting this second half of the year with a brand new reading experience... a Kindle Paperwhite! Lol. A bit over-dramatic but I absolutely love it so far. It was a birthday present from my husband. It's so small and easy to hold and a much... Continue Reading →
It's June and it's my birthday month! A birthday I've been on two sides of the fence about. Lol. Ultimately, I have to say the age doesn't look too bad on me at all. Besides, the older I get, the more comfortable I feel in my own skin and in the decisions I make. Here's... Continue Reading →
How is it May already? Unfortunately, I feel like I'm back in May of 2020. Our restrictions had been mostly lifted and so, well, people decided they should pack themselves into public, confined spaces, with or without masks and oh, what a surprise... massive surge in infections! <insert expletives> Sigh. So, we're back under restrictions... Continue Reading →
Well hello April. I can tell you how mine started... with a rubber snake under my pillow! And three snickering little boys after I screamed. 🙈 Sigh. I’m still planning my retribution... Well March was a busy month! I restarted teaching and, because I clearly don’t have enough to do, I also started an online... Continue Reading →
I've been meaning to read Inés of my Soul for years. It's a story that has received much acclaim and has been recommended to me over and over again. I'm especially interested in it as the story looks at the founding of Chile. The Chile-specific conquest story is one I'm not overly familiar with. I'm... Continue Reading →
J.W. over at Storeys of Stories hosts this meme. Taken from J.W.’s introduction: • Based on this sampling of your current read, give a few impressions and predict what you’ll think by the end.• Did you think you’d love it and ended up hating it? Or did you think you’d hate it and wound up loving it? Or were you exactly right?•... Continue Reading →
Wow, one month of 2021 down. Crazy, but, here we are in February, the shortest month of the year. Normally at some point this month we get a mini school break and often make travel plans... not happening this time around! Ah well, instead we've been planning at home birthday celebrations for the two youngest... Continue Reading →
Look at us.... all arrived and fresh-faced in 2021. Fingers crossed it's a happy, healthy and productive one. I'm supposed to be feeling all refreshed and ready to tackle a new semester. I'm not going to lie though, I'm already missing my later morning wake-up times. Lol. The boys re-start school on Wednesday. They'll be... Continue Reading →
