Fall, fall, fall! People on social media keep telling me “it’s officially fall.” It surely doesn’t feel like it. How has Labor Day become the door into fall? We still have a whole month of heat left here, and it really isn’t “officially” fall until September 21st. Don’t get me wrong, I want it to…

Did this feel like the longest short week ever to anyone else?  This four day work week has felt like it has lasted longer than a regular work week.  Whyyyyy??? I got a little sick at the beginning of the week, which may have had something to do with the days seeming like they would…

staycation with crane & canopy

I love being productive on my weekends, but sometimes I don’t feel refreshed, relaxed or ready to go for the work week if I have been really busy traveling, running errands, or doing home projects all weekend. When Will was on his surgery rotations his schedule was packed with hospital time, and not much time…

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…

ginger cookie s’mores with amaretto marshmallows

Ginger cookie s’mores with amaretto marshmallows all started with a broken jar of ground ginger. Will has been on surgery rotations for the past few weeks/months/seems like forever, and surgery schedules are really no fun. Most mornings we leave for the hospital around 4:30am, and I’m back home before 5am. Sometimes I go back to bed…
