Things have been going well here

Filed Under: life

It’s been a few days since I posted anything so I felt a need to get on here and talk about what we’ve been doing. Sean has been working crazy, late hours, even over the weekend so it has felt like a super weird, super long week. The boys and I watched Meet The Robinsons a gazillion times and loved it every single time. I cry like crazy at the end. I just can’t help myself!

This weekend, I attempted to make croissant dough for the first time and was really pleased with the results. Go to Shrinking Whimsigal to see for yourself.

Today, the boys and I had to go out and run some errands and while we were in the car Iain was asking me all kids of questions. What is it like to be a grownup? How do I feel about being a grownup? Am I happy? I answered each of these to the best of my ability and then I had one of my own. Why was he asking these things? (Just wondering where all this was coming from) He said he loved me very much and he only wanted me to be happy, never sad. It made me cry!! I thought that was so sweet! He thought that was weird. LOL

Anyway, we’ve not been doing anything crazy exciting here. I think I’m having a harder time adjusting to the shorter days than I usually do and it’s gotten me into a little bit of a slump. It seems like right around the time I’m ready to get into doing something, the sun is going down. Then all I want to do is put on my PJ’s and drink a hot chai tea. 🙂

Hope everyone else is doing well!

    I love the Chai Latte from Starbucks but that’s too much for the old wallet so now I make a cup of my own at home! Those spices are to die for!

    Awwww…it makes me want to give Iain a hug. What a sweet thing to say! Isn’t it interesting to hear that our kids think about us as people and not just as parents?

Bowie has had a tough year and a half. He was misd Bowie has had a tough year and a half. He was misdiagnosed by the first vet we used here and that led to a situation where the treatment almost seemed worse than the disease. Thankfully, @lawndale_vet helped us navigate that situation and they have nursed this big boy back to a much happier place. We still are uncertain about how much time we have left with him but, for now, he is the happiest we have seen him in a long time. I am so thankful to the staff at Lawndale for, not only providing great medical care, but for loving on him and making him feel like the best boy ever at each appointment. ❤️❤️❤️

This is the face of a very sad boy. Bowie has been This is the face of a very sad boy. Bowie has been suffering with licking granulomas since last March. We got the first one healed and then he got one on his other paw. Then that one got better but his paw pads got rubbed raw by the protective boot he was in and now are infected. Fingers crossed that this cone helps keep him from licking it so he can heal. Until then, Bowie is going to be a very sad boy, indeed. 😢

This cute little cup came in a pack from @christma This cute little cup came in a pack from @christmastreeshops and it’s bringing all the fall vibes today! Yes, it’s still almost 80° here in NC but I’m getting impatient for cooler temps. Trying to will the cool air in! And how cute is that plate behind my cup? My sweet friend @tlventura made it for me and it’s one of two fall decorations I kept when we moved. Hope you’re having an awesome day wherever you are, friends!! ❤️❤️❤️
