September 2022 September was a month that I will never forget. Things were hectic and somewhat crazy in the weeks leading up to the wedding. For much of the month, I just wanted the wedding to start so I could quit working and just sit back and try to have a good time. My daughter […]
August 2022 August was good. Sometimes busy and sometimes quiet but good. We hosted my daughter’s bridal shower at the beginning of the month. After a week of frantic packing, my younger daughter returned to college and we returned to having an empty nest. We also had some low-key weeks that were mainly spent at […]
July 2022 July was a whirlwind. I expect this to continue until my daughter’s wedding in September. We got more things in order for the wedding and bought dresses. I think that we have most of the key pieces in place but there are still a lot of details to deal with. On top of […]
June 2022 June was quite the month. Covid hit our house and I ended up being its first victim. I was sick for about a week with my husband being ill the next week. My daughter somehow avoided getting sick so that is a good thing. We have wanted to get a new backsplash in […]
May 2022 May was kind of busy. My daughter came home from college during the first part of the month. We love having her home but it does take some time to adjust to having another person in the house. We bought a truck even though we really were not looking for a vehicle. We […]
April 2022 This year really seems to be flying by, doesn’t it? April was a good month. I took a week off work and just hung around the house reading. I can’t think of a better way to spend a nice relaxing week. We celebrated Easter and went to my daughter’s college recital. I spent […]
March 2022 How is it already April? March felt like a pretty normal month. My daughter was home for a week during her spring break, we had my niece and nephew over to stay the night, and we changed the clock. Other than those things, it was just the normal routine of working, dog walking, […]
February 2022 February felt like winter. We had 3 separate storms that resulted in 5 days that I was able to work from home. Shoveling snow isn’t my favorite activity but I didn’t mind being able to stay at home during those 5 days. We stayed at home for much of the month unless we […]
January 2022 January was a quiet month. I was ready for a quiet month so it was welcome. My daughter went back to college leaving our nest empty once again. When we weren’t working or walking the dogs, we were probably just hanging out at the house. I read a lot of books and bought […]
November 2021 Another month has somehow flown by! They say that time moves faster as you get older and I do think that it feels that way. Most of the month was pretty calm. I got a new roof, read a lot of books, and walked the dogs an excessive amount. I took the week […]
