Life's brief update

Here I am again.

Midnight on a Friday night and I should be sleeping – but tomorrow is MY sleep in day, so I can splurge on a little writing.

Things have fallen, yet not fallen into place. I’ve spent the fall doing two things I never thought I’d be doing and am enjoying every moment.

First is wedding planning (and not for me, obviously). Next weekend is the event of the year. A friend got engaged in August and wanted to get married ASAP. Well, I said I could arrange it and here we are. I’ve loved EVERY aspect of the planning– just not something I want to do full time.

Next up is Aquafit Instructing. Who knew? I have been taking classes for upwards of a year now and when the instructor found out I didn’t return to work she asked me to teach. This has been really challenging and I should do a separate post – but for the time being I teach two classes Thursday nights.

 Life is funny and stressful and complete chaos most days. The colder weather is proving to be zero fun with trying to get the kids out. I’ve been attempting more mom playgroups and have even made a new friend (crazy how difficult that becomes as an adult). Really this topic again needs its own post.

Other than that I have been binge watching HBO’s Girls, I’ve been reading when I can (maybe 3 books/month), and finishing up my Christmas shopping.  This house is the most organized it has been in years and the amount of crap I am getting rid of to make space for more crap is amazing.

These kids are priceless. I could easily update here daily with funny conversations or shit that happens to us – but I never wanted to become ‘that’ blog. I get annoyed at people who do that on FB constantly.

I also don’t get the people who make blogging their full time job. Spending all their time trying to get ‘likes’ and linked to their site. Just not my thing, I guess. If just one person reads this one-day and it some how relates, or teaches them something then that is fine with me. There is just a fine line between relevant & not.

So on that note; there is what is up, in very very brief detail. I’ll try to post more detail soon.
