It is wonderful being back at work! It’s a bit strange. We have less people working at the same time. We stagger appointments to keep up the physical distancing. We have masks on, high-tech air filtration systems, hospital grade cleaners, and a few other things have changed to keep everyone as safe as we can.Continue reading “Back to Work”

Ready?
I find myself coming to a screeching halt as my first day back to work looms nearer. I thought I would use this time to ease my body back into use (I have been doing more stretching and yoga, but only one workout this week, so far), but instead, I find myself sinking into theContinue reading “Ready?”
Before We Return
I’m not really sure what to write. The joys of being a writer. I’ve got plenty to say, but nothing wants to come out right. We’re almost done with school for the year, which seems strange to say since all that will change is that I won’t be arguing with my older two to getContinue reading “Before We Return”
Passing Time
It’s interesting to me how the strangest things remind me of how much time has gone by when you have kids. Like when you carry them to bed and more and more of their limbs hang over your arms until there is just too much of them to carry anymore. The first morning you oversleepContinue reading “Passing Time”
Who Needs Sleep?
It’s about 2:30 in the morning and my oldest just fell asleep. Everyone else in the house is out and I, of course, am still awake. As much as I fantasize about enjoying a quiet cup of coffee early in the morning, sitting outside, soaking in the peace and quiet, it is not in theContinue reading “Who Needs Sleep?”
My Coffee Maker Broke
I woke up to my middle child crawling onto the couch with me at 5am to watch her current favorite show, Victorious. I can almost recite all the lines. We sat for a bit when I decided to make coffee and she settled in to start her school work. Ten minutes later my coffee makerContinue reading “My Coffee Maker Broke”
Oh Well, Time to Knit
I was suppose to accomplish a lot today. I had plans of greatness for today. The dining room was going to be conquered today. But it’s raining and I’m tired. I did about double the amount of cleaning yesterday that I had planned on, so I think I’ll allow myself to take a cue fromContinue reading “Oh Well, Time to Knit”
A Post Short
I’m having a tough time trying to find something to write about today. I’ve got a ton of ideas, but nothing is coming out right. I get going with something and delete it all. I’ve been listing again. It started with the grocery list. I have a system that I have been perfecting since theContinue reading “A Post Short”
Random Musings: Insomnia
Insomnia and I have been lifelong friends. Having an overactive imagination is pretty useful when you’re the middle child and entertaining yourself is kind of a must. Not so much when you have no control over it at night and it keeps your brain racing and you’re not always sure of the destination. Or whatContinue reading “Random Musings: Insomnia”
