As a result of I’ve been all over currently, this replace has gotta occur in a listing!
1. The camp grind
With all of the driving backwards and forwards between work and camp, we’re lastly beginning to discover a camp rhythm. Yay!
This week was dive camp, which was actually cool for Connor. She realized methods to do some fundamental dives off of the sting of the dive pool and off the springboard.
By the final day, she was leaping off the 5 meter platform, which, gasp, is about 16 ft above the dive pool floor. Craziness. By the top of the camp, she was begging me to come back again to dive camp. I’m wondering if we’re gonna develop into a dive household. Who is aware of?
2. I lastly completed an enormous venture at work
So now I’ve just a little extra respiratory room, which is a reduction. This job has these phases the place I’m working a ton within the house of about 8 weeks. For the previous month it’s felt like a dash from the time I stroll into the workplace till I depart. I’m grateful that my schedule’s eased up in time for the camp.
3. Do you ever undergo these phases the place you hate cooking?
Generally I don’t thoughts it, however currently I haven’t needed to cope with it after I get dwelling. Plus, when it’s scorching out, the very last thing I need to do is activate the range and stand in entrance of it. We’ve been surviving on sandwiches, cereal and do-it-yourself snack plates (crackers, cheese, a smattering of fruit and veggies, and a handful of nuts). No matter, no less than it’s considerably nutritious.
4. Life with Marnie is full and wealthy, however oh so time consuming
We’ve had her residing with us now for 2 months, and as she’s getting extra snug, we’re discovering out all types of issues about her. Seems in her earlier puppyhood life, she wasn’t given loads of alternatives for socialization with individuals and canine, so she’s bought a little bit of doggie nervousness.
We’ve been working with a coach and a behaviorist to assist her develop into the perfect Marnie she could be. I do know she will do it, however it’s loads of work. I really like her and the enjoyment she brings to our household, however I’m having much more bother juggling every thing, together with time to put in writing. I maintain telling myself that I’ll get there, and I simply must be affected person with myself. I’ll finally determine methods to discover a writing rhythm once more.
5. Raspberry choosing!
Lastly, right now El Hub is working, so Connor and I are headed out to do one thing we’ve by no means achieved earlier than – raspberry choosing! There’s a u-pick raspberry farm north of us in Sonoma County, so we’re headed up there in a number of to hang around and choose some raspberries.
