Since I work in an academic setting and Will’s medical school schedule mostly changes with the academic calendar, my year is primarily measured by the August to May academic calendar. This means my summer is measured in months between the end of one school year and the start of the next. Working on projects for…

june goals
Happy June and almost summer! It is starting to feel more and more like summer every day, with warm weather, open pools, and nightly thunderstorms to boot. Our May was filled to the brim and because of our packed schedule it seemed to go by quickly. While being busy and fully booked can sometimes feel…
may goals
April was packed to the brim and flew by so quickly because of that. We went to two weddings, drove through 5 states, spent Easter in Virginia, survived Will’s night shifts, made 800 cookies (!), and celebrated birthdays. Between lots of work and lots of social obligations, May is looking just as busy, if not…
april goals
Welcome, April! Between UNC winning the national championship (see photo below!) and prepping for a family wedding, the first few days of April have been wonderful already! April is my favorite month of the year. The spring weather is usually here to stay by mid-month, and I have my birthday to look forward to at…
march goals
February was a whirlwind. Looking back at my goals for the month I initially didn’t feel like I had accomplished that many of them. But, I feel like I made progress on the goals even if I didn’t accomplish all of them, and I realized that I was productive in many areas that weren’t listed…
february goals
I’m not sure how, but January felt like it both zoomed by and also lasted forever. While I didn’t cross off every goal on my January goals, I’m really proud of the goals I did accomplish in January. We accomplished a lot of tasks that weren’t even on the January to-do list (but I now wish…
goals for 2017 and january
We are 13 days into January and I am just finishing setting my goals for the year. Most people have already decided on and gotten started on their goals at this point, but I firmly believe in the idea that there is nothing magical about January 1st. We put so much pressure on January 1st,…
december goals
December, December, the most wonderful time of the year is here! November was a whirlwind of activities and seemed to go on longer than usual (I think having half a week of the month left after Thanksgiving contributed to that). We have already started to get ready for Christmas and it makes me so happy….
november goals
via I feel like we were just starting October and now Halloween is over and it’s on to November! Maybe it is because the weather hasn’t been completely fall-like, with spurts of warmth and cool days sprinkled together, but it really doesn’t feel like Thanksgiving is just around the corner. I’m excited to get into…
september goals
I can’t believe it is September already! August was packed with busyness for Will’s schedule (boo, surgery rotation) and my schedule, as work got crazier with the start of school. The last few weeks of August seem like a blur and I’m both afraid and hopeful that September is the same. I am so excited…
