TToT – The Last Long Weekend
Friday evenings hold something glorious and exciting. But when Thursday is the new Friday and the weekend is four days long? That first evening of the weekend is even more thrilling. We’ve had quite a few long weekends since the Hub only had to go into work Tuesdays through Thursdays all summer. So here we…
TToT – The Interim
Unbelievably, here we are at the end of summer. School begins on Monday for Kidzilla, so this is our last weekend of summer freedom. But I still can’t pull my brain away from the thought that summer lasts until Labor Day and this whole back-to-school before Labor Day thing is nonsense. So for the next…
TToT – The Stuff of Distraction
Sometimes I get distracted. Last weekend, I intended to post a second TToT because I had all the things to be thankful for. Then I forgot where I wrote them. I found a draft in my drafts folder. It may or may not be the intended second TToT. Either way, I’m going to snag the couple…
TToT – Hiatus
Apparently, I’m on hiatus. Not even kidding. Look back at my blog calendar since June and you will see a significant lack of posting. The TToT still makes it in each week, but lately that’s about it. Oh, I have ideas…loads of them. Drafts, too. Half-written, abandoned, “meh, nobody will want to read this” kind…
TToT – Goodbye, July!
It has been a long and crazy month. But in a good and happy way. Most of our activity was centered on Kidzilla’s activity schedule and our little girl has been on the go! She has gained so much from these last few weeks and I think it’s safe to say that we have as…
TToT – Cobwebs
You’ll have to please excuse the bit of dust on my blog. Despite any good intentions or potentially good post ideas, very little has happened around here – save the TToTs – in a very long time. I blame it on several things. Some of the reasons are interesting and relevant; others are not. Regardless, here…
TToT – The Week of Summer Insanity
This has been a crazy week. And this TToT is going to be the fastest, shortest, latest, and most dependent upon the graces of the SGV that I’ve ever posted. Zilla had a full week of activities, which means that I did as well. Here’s what life looked like… (hold onto your hats because it’s…
TToT – Preoccupied
I guess you could say I’ve been a bit preoccupied. I’ve posted very little in this space in the last three weeks. I’m certain that I’m not keeping up with friends and fellow bloggers the way I’d like to, despite all the best intentions. I’ve been doing and thinking lately – a lot. I’ve stared at…
TToT – Birthdays and Life, Part 2
It’s birthday time again! Well, it was. Tuesday was my birthday and it was quite possibly the most absurd one I’ve had in a while – maybe ever. The day started off fine and quite as usual with a Happy Birthday text from Super Sister at 12:01 AM. Always. I love it. I am thankful…
TToT – Summertime
There’s something special about summertime… The daylight lasts longer… Time seems to move a bit slower… Even the busy days feel a bit less structured and demanding. There is time to breathe, to inhale deeply, and to live deliberately… We are one week into our official summer break and have filled it with wonderful moments…
