Welcome to my weekly update for May 9, 2021! Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there! We celebrated early with my in-laws last week. It was nice to spend a long weekend with them. I won’t be seeing my own mom today but we’re planning to see her and the rest of my […]

Welcome to my weekly update for May 2, 2021! As you read this, my husband and I should be spending the weekend with his parents. We’ve all been vaccinated and they’re only a two-hour drive away. It felt safe to us and the CDC says it’s okay too. We’ve had lunch with them a couple […]

Welcome to my weekly update for April 25, 2021! I got my second vaccine on Friday! I was scheduled to get it at CVS on Thursday but CVS cancelled that appointment at the last minute. A brief scramble led me to Walgreens and they took care of me. As I write this about 24 hours […]

Welcome to my weekly update for April 18, 2021! My best friend from high school and her husband (both fully vaccinated) are stopping by to see us this weekend on their way to their vacation. We can’t wait to see them! I haven’t seen them in over a year and my husband hasn’t seen them […]

Welcome to my weekly update for April 11, 2021! First of all, my apologies that I haven’t been visiting other blogs as often as I usually do. At first we were traveling around national parks in Arizona while we were nailing down my husband’s next work assignment. But now that we’ve settled in Florida, our […]

Welcome to my weekly update for April 4, 2021! Happy Easter to all who celebrate! I got my first COVID vaccine on Wednesday! I truly thought it would be summer before I was eligible but Florida opened up to everyone age 40+ so I jumped at the opportunity. Florida’s law requiring that I prove seasonal […]

Welcome to my weekly update for March 28, 2021! My husband and I met his parents at a park for a picnic last Monday. Everyone except me is fully vaccinated and the park was largely empty so it felt pretty safe. It was nice to see them and catch up! We haven’t seen them since […]

Welcome to my weekly update for March 21, 2021! My husband and I share a car while we’re traveling with his job. I’ve been trying to drop him off at work and head over to Siesta Key for a walk as the sun comes up and before the crowds arrive. I’m not a morning person […]

Welcome to my weekly update for March 14, 2021! Did my fellow US-based readers remember to set your clocks forward an hour? Ugh. It takes me weeks to adjust to this time change! In other news, my husband’s work contract near San Diego finished up (He’s a traveling healthcare worker). We were being really choosy […]

Welcome to my weekly update for March 7, 2021! I disappeared for a few weeks while my husband was off of work but I should be back to my regular schedule now. I need to start building a bigger cushion of pre-scheduled posts! Scheduling one week ahead usually feels like an accomplishment to me. Lesson […]
