I feel like I haven't blogged in a really long time. That's probably not true, but that's what it feels like.A brief update:We went to Alaska during the first week of August...it was way hotter there than expected. Who goes to AK and expects to have 80*F+? Not me! We had a really good time … Continue reading Late August musings….
Choosing to think positively….
The other day at work, I realized that I'd made a mistake and I beat myself up really hard about it. Really hard. Like I always do. Because apparently, for me, it's never okay to make a mistake, but for anyone else, it's totally acceptable, understandable, even expected. I just never allow myself the chance … Continue reading Choosing to think positively….

I hate coming back to work after vacation.
Today was a miserable day. I kind of can't even believe it. I got next to no sleep due, in large part, to screaming children at all hours of the night. Sigh.Coming back to work after vacation is horrible, we all know this. But today was especially horrifying. Without any effort, I was made to … Continue reading I hate coming back to work after vacation.
I stand by my previous statements…
Regarding vacation.The week prior to any vacation is, without a doubt, the WORST. Worse even than the week after a vacation.This week has been pretty gross already and today is (hopefully) going to be the worst of it all. I'm itchy like you wouldn't even believe so I made a doctor's appt for Friday afternoon … Continue reading I stand by my previous statements…
I’m a wreck!
I have been itching incessantly since about 9pm yesterday. I've actually been pretty itchy for a couple days now, but it got really bad last night. I wish Todd could have stayed up all night scratching my back while I slept.This morning, it's pretty bad too. I'm clawing at my arms and back...I'm sure it … Continue reading I’m a wreck!
On growing up….
I can't believe I'm speaking in numbers I actually understand at this point. Only a few more semesters and I'm totally done. I think that number is going to be five, just to be certain that whatever sanity I have left remains intact.Latin was supposed to be the class that was "easy" and it's turning … Continue reading On growing up….
Fatigue, housing, and career upgrades…
Over the weekend, we headed out to Woodland Park / Pike Nat'l Forest to do some more camping, this time with L&R as part of the crew too. I like to refer to our camping trip as "Hilton Camping" because the campground had paved roads and was pretty "chi-chi" as far as that goes. Really … Continue reading Fatigue, housing, and career upgrades…

It’s the little things…
Things that I currently hate:1. When people make gross-out noises about foods I'm eating and/or like2. Disorganization3. ClutterI guess the last two are sort of the same. I guess.I'm on a mission to make our guest room more of a guest room. I want to get the clutter out of there and the Christmas crap … Continue reading It’s the little things…
