I think I had a minor heart attack today when I realized that we were only a few days away from September. Already! Of course, my sense of time is completely shot now thanks to five months of quarantine, with months more to go. The good news is that once school starts (2 weeks from […]

I have to admit something: I am jonesing something terrible for Fall. I love everything about Fall–the cooler temps, the changing colors, the kids back in school (even if they won’t be back AT school), football, the food… I think Pat was reading my mind yesterday because he suggested we get takeout from Gustav’s for […]
First off, I apologize for any strange typos that I don’t catch. I’ve been having some neck pain and invested in a stand for my laptop and new keyboard. The stand has arrived (and it is making a difference) but the keyboard hasn’t, so I’m typing at a very strange angle. So, not much to […]
As you can tell from my absence, it hasn’t been an especially eventful week. Monday was fun–I’ll talk more about that below–but other than that the highlight was finding wine otter pops at Costco. Distance Learning starts one month from today and we’re starting to get ready. I ordered a chrome book for Chris–technically, we […]
Another week gone…not that we’d notice. Pat and I went out for a bit this evening for some exciting stuff, going to Costco and Trader Joe’s. In the car, Pat lamented that he just feels stuck in the house. While I think he prefers working from home over working in the office for a variety […]
I’ve been meaning to write this post for days, but have just not gotten around to it. Part of it is because I tend to wait until the kids are in bed and then I’m tired. Part of it is that, right now, there just isn’t that much to say. Our lives are quite dull […]
Another week has come to an end and another week of nothing especially exciting to report. I guess the big news is that we now know for sure what school is going to look like in the fall. Learning will start on 9/14, which is a week later than usual, and it will be virtual. […]
Well, I certainly didn’t mean for 5 days to go by without a post! I normally write posts at night, but Pat and I have been walking once things cool down and then I just want to go to bed, so no posting! I can’t say that much has happened since I last wrote. The […]
Obviously, I didn’t have a lot to say this week. Things are just in a rut–the kids have various little things and I have various things, but really the days sort of just bleed into one another. But, that’s not entirely true. I’ve wavered between needing to talk about this and not being about to […]
Well, we survived the weekend! I know that sounds a bit cliche, but my kids will tell you that it was really touch and go for a while. As I said in an earlier post, we decided to do a hike at the Trappist Monastery in Lafayette. Of course, once the kids found out the […]
