Another month has gone by. Did it bring cooler temperatures? No. Did I have more fun in September than I did in August? Also no. But did I learn from this? Time will tell. While I try to focus on the highlights for my weekend fun recaps, several weekends this September were kind of a
How was your weekend? Mine had lots of fun events but also some hard moments. As an Enneagram One, it’s easy for me to let hard moments overshadow the good ones. But a wise mom shared with me this weekend that she often tells her daughter “don’t let a bad moment ruin a good day.”
How was your weekend? My husband and I were a little under the weather, so we had to cancel some plans and take it easy. That gave us some time to catch up on some nagging tasks and do some vacation planning. We’re excited about what’s to come, but this weekend was pretty low-key! Family
I will not buy a new planner in September. I will not buy a new planner in September. I will not buy a new planner in September. But maybe you will? I’m not sure what it is about getting a new planner that feels so fun to me. Maybe it’s because, as an Enneagram One,
It’s fall, y’all. Or at least football season. Here in the South, temps don’t really start to drop until October—and sometimes not even then. But I firmly believe that if we build it, it will come. I’ve already moved into my Fall Playbook from the Lazy Genius. And I’m ready to start making more changes
How was your weekend? It’s a holiday weekend here (and my girls have a bonus day off on Tuesday), but my Labor Day plans mostly consist of grocery shopping, so I’m just focusing on Friday through Sunday like usual. One area of fun that I’d like to learn to do better is taking advantage of
As an Enneagram One learning to have fun, I’ve got a long way to go. I snap at my kids way too often. My to-do list tends to be the most important thing in my life. I think updating my budget spreadsheet is a good time. (Like what you like, people.) But I have been
My middle kid wants to move. Despite being close to school. Despite being close to grandparents. Despite having some adored neighborhood friends. She wants to move. And she brings it up fairly often. I’ve explained our proximity to good things. I’ve told her we’re never going to move because of a little thing I can’t
Book Club My book club gathered on Friday night to discuss The Rosie Project. You can read my thoughts on it here, and the rest of the group enjoyed it as well. (Though one character was universally hated.) During our last meeting, our host really upped the game with themed snacks and activities. This really
How was your weekend? We kept things low-key since my girls went back to school this week. We love their school and their teachers, but it’s still a big transition for everyone! (Carpool lines are not fun.) I’ve got something fun planned for next weekend though, so stay tuned! We did manage to squeeze in
