I respectfully disagree.
The chaos is real. Often it’s a mishmash of balancing conflicting schedules, eating on the run, waving to one another as we pass through the door, and somehow making sure all the needs are met and deadlines hit. I’ve found that as I come to the end of another decade and inch closer to “middle…

Rainy Days
I love the rain. Hear me out. In a world where it’s constant movement, being busy, tackling to-do lists, meal prepping, all the things all the time it’s nice when the universe is telling you to slow down. I don’t feel the guilt associated with moving a little slower when it’s a downpour outside. I…

Being a Good Friend
I posted something a few days ago, I’ll link it below, about what friendship in your 30s and 40s looks like. Often it’s sitting at a game or practice next to your friend and cheering on one another’s kids. I work full time and juggle the schedules of two little trolls and my husband’s changing…

Tackling Mindset

Raising Athletes
Raising an athlete is not for the faint of heart. To start, each time I watch my kids struggle to raise to a challenge on the field my heart skips a beat or two. I’m holding my breath in the stands willing them to overcome their own limitations and trying to telepathically push them through…

Sourdough adventures
Quite possibly the best loaf I have made yet. I started a starter months ago and recently started throwing all recipes to the wind. I judge based on the dough and how it’s acting. This should have been cinnamon rolls but it was over fermented – a little too gooey so I switched gears and…

Garden Overhaul
I’m late to the planting game this year because Hubs decided to do a complete overhaul of our garden area. It’s beautiful, slowly coming together and I’m so excited to get my hands dirty again. Before we left for vacation I planted some volunteer tomatoes that a friend saved me (thank you LW) and surprisingly…
