Lately…

Ummm, somehow I haven’t posted here since November.  Wow.  So just what have I been up to since then?  Well, lately I’ve been…

…having fun painting my nails.

…drinking a lot of tea.

…dealing with major stress at work, but also bonding with my colleagues because of it.

…battling with two toddlers over naps.  Stop jumping and sleep, girls!

…watching and reading Pretty Little Liars, and getting the TV and book storylines all mixed up in my head.

…ignoring potty training because I just can’t handle it.

…feeling really in control of my anxiety now that I’m taking meds for it.

…putting actual thought into what I wear each day.

…trying to exercise more regularly and semi-succeeding.

…participating in district-level committees on technology and social media and loving the conversations.

…thinking about getting my PhD.

…talking about the Wonder Pets with a pair of obsessed toddlers.

…wishing I could talk to my dad about stress at work.

…wearing my “Keep Calm & Carry a Wand” bracelet every day.

…watching Vampire Diaries, Switched at Birth, Smash, Scandal, Downton Abbey, and basically all of the shows.

…wanting to blog more, but always pushing it to the bottom of my list.

I miss you, blog friends!  What have you been up to lately?

    You have been busy! Missed you! What have I been up to? Well, I had a baby 4 weeks ago (I have a Charlotte now too!), moved in temporarily with my parents, and am basically just surviving!

    Hey, you’re back! Good to hear you’ve been busy and productive :)

  3. Erin says:

    We’ve been adjusting to having a newborn. :) Hope you’re well.

    Welcome back :) oh, work stress. That’s been pretty much consuming me too lately. Not my fave! Thank goodness for running and coffee to keep me sane.

    Okay, tell it to me straight: Are the Wonder Pets really great? As in, fun for the kids and also not painfully annoying/irratiting to the parents? The only Wonder Pets knowledge I have comes from one book that was given to Alexander, which happens to be one of his favorite books, and also happens to be just AWFUL. Terrible. Stupid. I can’t even read it to Alexander without making up a new story because I can’t stand the non-sensical, super lame story printed in the book. So, admittedly, I have very limited experience with the Wonder Pets. However, the experience I do have does not create much desire to delve deeper into their world. Am I being unfairly harsh? Should I give them another chance?

    Sup? ;) I was thinking about reading the PLL books but aren’t there like 54903858 of them? I don’t know if I can commit.

    Oh, I miss you.
    I think of you often and of course the girls, too!
    As I was wandering over here (ignoring the last 20 minutes of my work day) I was afraid I would have missed a ton of posts so I’m rather relieved to see it is only a few that I have missed.

    Lately I am… watching the West Wing (how did I not watch it sooner), am not cleaning the house even though it needs it, reading a lot and then not at all at the same time, and missing my blog turned real life friends so, so much. You are one of those people. xo
