Well hello and how are you surviving these fascinating times? Last week was a week at work, trying to prepare a large company to work remotely with a shorthanded team has been interesting and I know many IT Professionals are living the same challenges. Friday was my first full day of working from home and […]
Finding Normal for the List
March already, still trying to wrap my head around that. My mother-in-law passed this week and it’s been a sad and difficult time. We miss her dearly and are adjusting. It’s been nice to relax a little and catch up this weekend. Miko has been loving being a cuddly little buddy to us. And I […]
Just Hanging for the List
I’m here, really. But it’s been a turbulent couple of weeks and I took a blogging break to honor one of my dearest blog readers. Hubby returned from a tough week and a half trip to Florida for my mother-in-law who moved into hospice care. It’s been a hard time with lots of sadness that […]
Catching Up for the List
I am here and enjoying the long weekend after a long week. A week that included lots of workouts, so important for dealing with stress, lots of hubby and Miko cuddles, also important. And picking up vegan treats bright and early Friday morning from Pushkin’s for a team member leaving the company. That plus a […]
Back from a Busy Week for the List
It was a crazy week last week, so busy at work I just wanted to sit and do nothing when I got home I was feeling so drained. Still adjusting to management and there is a lot of transition on our team now with a growing workload. I really love the new challenges, but they […]
Christmas Ready for the List
Crazy that Christmas is a couple of days away! Ready? I think I am. Shopping is mostly done, food is mostly planned, and I am looking forward to a few days off work. This has been a busy week with work and holiday parties, but eats at home have not been that crazy with a […]
Feeling Festive for the List
Not sure I’m ready for the weekend to end, it’s been mostly relaxing inside thanks to wild rainy and windy weather. The clouds between the storms have been gorgeous while Miko fully preferred snuggling inside where it’s dry. Both the pups have been happy to enjoy warm blankets and the fireplace lately, isn’t Leela adorable […]
Leftovers for the List
It has been a weird, weird week that started with a bad Monday. Work was busy, then we had to evacuate early due to a brush fire nearby and strong winds which thankfully was not a problem. But fires are not taken lightly around here! Then I was not able to get much work done […]
Fun Weekend for the List
Again, Sunday got here way too fast. But it has been a fun and productive weekend after a busy work week. But first the weekday eats that included chickpea pasta with marinara and veggies, curry sweet potato saute, cauliflower stir fry, and a simple soy curl stir fry with tamari. And another simple tempeh stir […]
Back from Florida for the List
It is nice to be back home, we spent last week visiting family in Florida that started with a late flight Sunday night out of Sacramento. I tried to sleep on the flight and maybe got a decent 3 hours of sleep, but I am not a good plane sleeper. We arrived at Atlanta very […]
