    A Week Away*

    I took a little break. I didn’t mean for a whole week to go by, but it did and here I am, a whole week later. I haven’t gone that long without writing in months. I can already feel old habits creeping back in so I thought I’d better get back on the horse and get writing again. I was supposed to work today, but an hour after I went to bed last night I heard the kids door open and Miss S crept down the hall to the bathroom. It’s unlike her to get up at night, so I went to check on her. She wasn’t feeling well, and…

    I’m Full* (originally on FB)

    I’m having issues getting on my blog again, so I’m just going to write here for tonight. I’ve already missed a few days of writing in the last week and I don’t want to fall too far behind. That being said, life has been so overwhelmingly full that something had to give… and sadly that was my writing time. Life right now just feels so… full. A good kind of full, but also the kind of full that is making my head spin. We have so much going on and so much to do that I feel like I can’t keep it all straight. I usually say that I feel…

    Imagine this was a witty title

    I have had a bit of a rough night. Remember how I told you a while back that I occasionally get random bouts of nausea in the evenings? Tonight was a bad one. It came on like a freight train and I spent most of the night bonding on the floor with my bathroom tiles. It’s starting to pass but I’m done in for the night. I have exciting things to tell you about our basement progress, but I think I just need to go to bed. More tomorrow, I promise. ♥️

    I love choir*

    It’s late and it’s been a longish day, but I just got home from choir not long ago and wanted to just say that I am LOVING it. It’s long and tiring but I don’t think I realized just how much I have missed music in my life. I love to sing. I love it. It honestly brings me so much joy. I don’t know if listening to me brings anyone joy, but I enjoy it. (ha) Our Christmas performance is next week and I’m really excited. The music our director chose this year is gorgeous and it seriously makes me emotional. We are singing this beautiful arrangement of Silent…

  • My thoughts*

    I didn’t write last night.

    For the first time since September 2nd, I didn’t write. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to, it was on my list of things to do and I’d even thought out what I was going to say. I was going to tell you all about what a lovely day I had at work… I went to a school that I haven’t been to in years, where I didn’t have many connections. I was sort of dreading it as I was nervous it would be another long day of feeling awkward in a department where I was the odd man out. …except that it wasn’t. Everyone I met was so lovely.…
