Thoughts


-      -  I love vacation and have a wonderful time while I’m gone.  But there is something about coming home that really gets me down.  Not as in ‘I’m sad I’m home’, but more like missing dad.  A realization that this is what my life looks like right now.  Yes, I’m happy for the most part, but a huge part of me also feels like it’s missing.  That missing piece is very much noticed when I try to get back to my regular routine.
-      -  I accidently called dad a few weeks ago.  It happened so quickly, and I hung up before it even began to ring.  But, none the less, I called him.  I just can’t delete him out of my phone.  I don’t think I ever will.
-       - Trying to set up a routine and stick to it so I can enjoy more relaxing down time.  I’m still in the ‘set up’ stage.  Trips and things that aren’t quite the norm are throwing me off.  And realizing how busy our schedule is the next few months isn’t helping.  All with good things, but it’s not helping me get my house organized.  (And D re-doing our bathroom and dining room at the same time isn’t helping one bit.  But those projects are helping him keep sane so I guess it’s ok.)
-       - I’ve found some apps that help with saving money at the grocery store.  I’ve downloaded a bunch, but have 3 that I’m a little obsessed with.  I want to explore the others that I’ve downloaded a little more before writing them off completely.
    -  I’m liking the Instagram stories.  I was never really a fan of snapchat.  Sure, the filters are kinda fun to play with, but I don’t like seeing them on every photo on social media. 
   -Getting ready for the next JL year and I'm kinda excited for it.

12of12 | August 2016

01.  Mornings with these two is always exciting.  They love breakfast time.
02.  Mr. Rory and his window.
03.  It was such a rainy day.  I think it has rained every August 12th since I've been doing this project.
04.  Back home for lunch.  D had a work lunch so it was just me today.
05.  Rory thinks wheat thins are irresistible.
06.  Got home and cleaned the kitchen just in time to get it messy again.
07.  Dinner prep.
08.  The dogs play while I cook in the kitchen.
09.  Dinner.  One of our favorites.
10.  D and I had a little date to see Sausage Party.  Wow....that's all I can say.  Wasn't quite expecting it to go the extreme that it did.
11.  Came home and worked on the bathroom.
12....While I read in bed.

30|52 : 3 Months



Week Thirty
July 18, 2016


How did we ever get to 3 months?  I remember that day like it happened yesterday and yet it feels like it's been years (not months) since I've seen your face and heard your voice.  The pain of losing you changes, but it never goes away.  I love you, daddy.
