And We Survived

Wow, I can't believe it's been over a month since my last post. So sorry to those who follow me, and have been curious as to my whereabouts :)

I've been super busy with my freelance work. Between that and Lil Man starting pre-school, there hasn't been much free time to post. Actually there hasn't been a lot of free time lately for much of anything.

But I'm hoping that we going to find our 'groove' soon with pre-school and family schedules.

I was very emotional on his first day of pre-school. I think he shed a few tears, but honestly I think I shed the majority of them. After leaving him in his room, I made a quick exit to the restroom to bawl my eyes out and compose myself before walking out of the building. I clung to my phone like a life source in case they called me. But with each 15 minute increments that passed, I felt myself starting to relax. Before the 2.5 hours was over, I realized that the time really went by quick.

We are on our 2nd full week of school now and so far so good. He seems to be picking up the routine quickly. He also seems like he enjoys it. And I am finding lots of uses for my time during preschool. I'm also finding that 2.5 hours isn't a lot of time to get everything on my 'to do' list accomplished. But I'm really glad that Hubby and I made the decision to start pre-school at 2. I think it's been great for everyone.


He is truly growing up too fast!

Window Bird Feeder By Yellow Beaks

Lil Man has been beside himself since the Clear Window Bird Feeder by Yellow Beaks arrived in the mail. He couldn't wait to get it up and outside. He's very anxious for the birds to come. I wasn't sure how the suction cups would hold up. I've never, in the past, had much luck with any type of suction cup. But so far it's been a week with varying temperature changes, and the suction cups are holding strong. The construction seems sturdy, and it looks to be well-made. It also will be easy to clean out. I know with bird feeders they can get a little yucky sometimes, but this will be easy to remove, spray out and clean up.  So far the birds haven't visited us yet. Our neighbor has several bird feeders and he is keeping all of the birds over there (ha). But Lil Man is checking daily, sometimes multiple times a day, for a bird. So I can't report how the birds like the feeder, but I have to say that we honestly do.  You can find the Wind...

MagicMil Chalkboard Label And Pen Pack Review And Giveaway

I have been compensated in the form of a gift card/money/coupon and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free. All opinions expressed are mine and honest in nature. I'm not known for my craftiness. The fact that I made bird feeders out of milk jugs was a huge accomplishment for me when it comes to crafts. But when I saw these Chalkboard labels , I couldn't get over just how cute they were. And I thought, surely even I could could create something cute with these. First of all, there are several sizes and shapes to choose from. So the possibilities seem endless for what all you could do with these great Chalkboard labels . They are easiest to remove if you slightly bend where the label starts. And they are also re-positionable. ( I may or may not be speaking from experience ;) But they can be re-positioned up to 20 minutes. And they come with a liquid chalk pen. The liquid chalk pen is a little more watery than other markers. You can reapply to...

2 Weeks Post Mohs Surgery

May 26, 2021 3:40pm  Finally, the phone call that I'd been waiting on. It was the Medical Center. ( Finally, we can schedule my surgery. ) She tells me who she is, and then tells me that she has a cancellation for tomorrow. ( Me stammering... )  "Ok, but I was thinking the end of June."   Then I hear "We just had a moment to look at your file. We really don't think that you should wait. We really think you should come in tomorrow at 8:15am" ( Me stammering again ) "Ok, I'll be there."  Wait, what? My mind is all over the place. I'm supposed to work. How am I going to get our son to school? Will my husband be able to go with me on such short notice. I expected this to be the end of June, not tomorrow. I'm not prepared! I was overcome with emotion.  May 26, 2021 Surgery Day I woke up at 1am with a horrible headache. By the time we arrived at the surgery center, I was definitely a bundle of nerves. I got checked in, went through the usual ...
