Friday Faves – Edition 46
Friday Faves. It's already Friday. I hope that if you celebrated Christmas that it was a lovely day. We went to a Candlelight Christmas Eve Service and had our traditional Christmas Eve feast. The number of teens who stayed home to watch The Polar Express has steadily dwindled. Only one this year. We got to [...]
Friday Faves – Edition 45
It's Friday! The Friday before Christmas! How did that happen?! I can't believe that in a little over a week we will enter 2018! Are you all ready? I think that I have participated in the weekly photo challenge every week this year. This week asked us to share one of our favorite photos [...]
Friday Faves – Edition 44
It's Friday. I can't begin to tell you how relieved that I am that it is Friday. This has been an exhausting week. Mostly because I've spent most of it in that "bordering on sick" phase. You know, the phase where you're coughing, congested, and have general feelings of malaise, but since you aren't [...]
Friday Faves – Edition 43
Friday Faves. Edition 43. This week has felt productive. I can't put my finger on the why, but I feel like I am on a path forward... not standing still, or worse, moving backward. Pinterest and Tailwind. As I move toward the end of the year...and closer to the 2-year mark of this blog, [...]
Friday Faves – Edition 42
Friday Faves. They say that time waits for no one. I see the evidence of this every day. I wonder where my hours have gone and yet I know that they've been full. And then, I wonder how it came to be Friday already. Then I wonder how we have arrived on December 1st. The [...]
Friday Faves – Edition 41
Friday. It really doesn't feel like Friday. When there's a disruption to the school/work routine, it throws things off. Tuesday felt more like Friday because everyone took Wednesday off. Monday was really my only day that stayed on schedule. Tuesday I had a kid that needed to leave school early because they didn't feel [...]
Friday Faves – Edition 40
Friday. Edition 40. Today is Edition 40 of my Friday Faves. I feel like I should have a celebration or something. Edition 40 during my year of being 40. Seems special... right?! Anyway, just know that I'm doing a happy dance to mark my excitement. I know that might make it seems like my [...]
Friday Faves – Edition 39
Friday! Edition 39. It's that day of the week where I share some of my favorite highlights from the week. It's also the time when I try to catch you up on what my week has been like. Sometimes it's one of those weeks where this time of reflecting on the good really helps shift the [...]
Friday Faves – Edition 38
It's Friday! I hope that you all have had an amazing week. Mine has been jam-packed. Senior Year Deadlines. I've had deadlines for Big Mr.'s Senior year. I had to pull together his Senior Ad... which meant finding the photos I wanted and, because I'm Amy, I had to hunt and hunt and hunt [...]
