#10Thankful – Cycles and Seasons
If one thing is certain in life, it is cycles. Seasons come and go, night turns surely to morning, and years pass more quickly than we might hope. It’s hard not to see this time of year as an end. It is the end of summer, the end of sleeping in and staying up late,…

TToT – Transitions and Getting Back on Track
Fall has always been a time of transition and fresh starts for me. This year is no different. The change of seasons itself is a beautiful time of change – for me, the move from hot and humid to cool and comfortable is glorious. And I love the color changes, too. Although the fresh, bright…

TToT – Five Day Week
Oh, hey…it’s Sunday afternoon already and I still haven’t managed to get my TToT post done. This was our first five day week since school started and yes that extra day does make a difference. We’re definitely settling into the school year routine, though, and that’s a pretty good thing. But let’s get this list…

TToT – Not Quite Full Swing
Sometimes life is just about getting it done. This is one of those weeks. I am short on time, but didn’t want to miss posting so we’ll go with pure function this week. With two weeks of school in – each only four days because we started back before Labor Day, we aren’t quite in…

TToT – The Last Long Weekend
Friday evenings hold something glorious and exciting. But when Thursday is the new Friday and the weekend is four days long? That first evening of the weekend is even more thrilling. We’ve had quite a few long weekends since the Hub only had to go into work Tuesdays through Thursdays all summer. So here we…

TToT – The Interim
Unbelievably, here we are at the end of summer. School begins on Monday for Kidzilla, so this is our last weekend of summer freedom. But I still can’t pull my brain away from the thought that summer lasts until Labor Day and this whole back-to-school before Labor Day thing is nonsense. So for the next…

TToT – Hiatus
Apparently, I’m on hiatus. Not even kidding. Look back at my blog calendar since June and you will see a significant lack of posting. The TToT still makes it in each week, but lately that’s about it. Oh, I have ideas…loads of them. Drafts, too. Half-written, abandoned, “meh, nobody will want to read this” kind…

FTSF – When We No Longer Love
I used to love the classroom. When I was a little girl, I loved school. I loved everything about it. The swirls of leaves falling outside as we walked through the door in September. The pencils, the crayons, the phonics books. I loved my Charlie Brown and Snoopy lunch box and the way lunch time…

FTSF – Epic Diaper Fail: A Babyzilla Story
When the timing is right to jump into something, you know. Sometimes you just need the right combination of factors to fall into place together to make you say, “OK, it’s time to try this.” I have been reading posts here and there that link up to Finish the Sentence Friday, currently hosted at my…

TToT – The Non-Routine Routine
My disappearance this week was not intentional. In fact, I had all sorts of great ideas planned for this space – and most were actually in a semi-written state. But somehow the first week back on routine went a little awry and I ended up with a cold to boot. Two of the five school…
