Happy Sunday y’all! This has been a long week. Our dog has had tummy issues since we brought him home two years ago. The vet diagnosed him with a nervous stomach. Well for the past two weeks, he’s been having diarrhea, and I haven’t been this sleep deprived since I had a newborn. Thankfully last […]
Amanda’s Weekly Update First of all, HAPPY FATHER’S DAY to all you dads out there! Especially to my own Dad – he’s pragmatic, possessed of integrity, and so easy going. It was a privilege to be raised by you, Dadd-oo. And Happy Father’s Day (and also Happy Birthday) to my strong, amazing husband. You put […]
Amanda’s Weekly Update Anyone else having problems with their days melting together into an indiscernible pile of hours? That’s me this week. Days happened and there was eating and sleeping and stuff. Confession tho: I am terrible about cleaning my house. It always looks very “lived in”. Toys everywhere, books stacked in window sills, French […]
Amanda’s Weekly Update Oh, man. What a week. I’ve been stressed out all week with everything happening in the world. I have had to really reevaluate what is in my heart, and have tried to listen and understand all that’s happening from a new perspective. I’m encouraged by the changes we are seeing that are […]
Amanda’s Monthly Update It feels so good to be back to blogging and reading regularly. I still don’t get to do it as much as I should like, but I commit as much time as I can between all the stuff I’m doing. I’ve loved getting my first ARC and posting its review online. I’ve […]
Another week down – and it was like 17 days long, it seems. I went out in public for the first time in about a month yesterday and I think I forgot how to “public”. It was weird. There was such a weird vibe in the store. We think our governor here in VA is […]
So it’s been a minute since I’ve updated, since before our national quarantine. Q-tine has been weird. Hard to describe, honestly. My emotions have been all over the place, my powerlifting has been…well…lazy. The kids are climbing the walls, and I’m running out of healthy coping mechanisms. But it’s fine, we’re fine, I’m fine. Thankfully, […]
Happy Sunday y’all! It’s been several weeks since the last time I checked in with a Sunday Post and SO much has been happening. Much of the world is on lockdown, and I feel as if I’m living in an alternate reality. In truth, my life hasn’t changed that much. I began homeschooling our son […]
Happy Sunday y’all! What an interesting few weeks it’s been since my last post. Spring has been interesting to say the least. In my area of the world, all nonessential businesses are now closed until at least April 13th, schools are closed and people are doing distance learning at home until at least the 24th, […]
Happy Sunday y’all! I don’t know about you, but I could’ve used that extra hour of sleep today. I am dragging! I’ve been battling a cold this week that is most likely just allergies. You know when you live in a place that it’s thirty degrees one day and in the 70s the next, where […]
