Winters Words

Today is the last day of the slice! I feel like this month has really flown by. I do enjoy being able to write down my thoughts each day. I always say that I am going to continue blogging, but with a little one at home I know that it is not something that I […]

Being on spring break is great so far. It is just a relief to be able to sleep in a little bit and stay home with no urgency to get work done, or respond to emails. This school year has been so stressful and there has not been one week where there wasn’t something going […]

Today is the day I get to go to the spa and get my massage and facial. I am SO ready. I cannot wait to just sit and relax for an hour and a half. My mom is watching Logan so I can take my time and stop by Starbucks…Target….Homegoods….wherever my heart desires. I am […]

Today I got to sleep in an hour longer than normal because it is spring break. My son even slept in and it was wonderful. I made my cup of coffee from the Nespresso machine and gave Logan his cheerios and yogurt for breakfast. We watch Good Morning America and then read some of his […]

If I had an endless supply of money, I would hire someone to do my endless amount of laundry. I honestly feel like some months it never ever ends! You would think with only 2 adults and 1 baby in the house it would be manageable, but not usually. Luckily when my mom is watching […]

I feel like it was just February yesterday, and now March is almost over. I am happy that the winter months are going by faster now. Our spring break is next week, and then it will be April when we come back. The end of the school year is not too far away….which is a […]

Yesterday the weather was amazing. I love the spring time. Of course I live in Illinois so that will not last long, but it is a good sign of good weather to come! Over the weekend my husband cleared out all of the leftover dead leaves/plants from the flower beds, revealing the green leaves of […]

I have added another activity of self care to my spring break week, a manicure and pedicure appointment. The last time I had this done was pre-covid, so a very long time ago. My son still has his ‘school’ three days that week, so I think I will send him at least one of the […]
