It is Friday! Long but good week. Did my last intense exercise of the week out on the roads. Brisk today. Remi joined me for part of it. Happy girl.

Yesterday was busy with lots of meetings and today is too actually. But all good things.

Last night’s dinner was simple but good. Pork tenderloin with green beans and sweet potatoes. Gonna tweak the pork a bit but was pretty good.

The garden has been pruned. Some fresh basil and parsley in the cups in the fridge.

Except for when you watch Back to the Future on repeat during the quarantine! Best movie ever. (Don’t worry about the plot flaws… haha)

Have a good weekend!

Afternoon! Whew. The morning began with lessons and meetings and is continuing with a webinar for music ed- specifically band. It is bright and sunny and we are getting things done!

Yesterday was interesting. The computer cut out in the middle of a meeting with my students. Then when I got it back up, the mouse ran out of batteries. Then the picture frame fell off the wall right into the plug where the whole computer apparatus is hooked into. Start over. Then… John Michael pooped his pants after a very long time of being potty trained. So into the tub he went. Got the puter up and running again and on we went. Oh it was a great day. I know, I know. Small world problems. On the flip, after work I got the bathroom organized and cleaned for a change! Win.

Made a little video for the middle school announcements today…

Part 1

Part 2. Poor Remi. She knew we were gonna go on a walk so she was hovering.

Beautiful day. Have a good one!

John Michael’s school sends him activities to do. He listened to his circle time (stretches and story) and did a train memory card game. Finished up with a little painting. That red paint then ended up on the top of his car. Later on, I found it on the leg of the table in the sun room. Good times.

Frittata for dinner last night again. MMM. Breakfast for dinner is the best once in a while. Joe made the potatoes on the grill.

Did my HIT sprints outside again like a cool person. While the people mow their lawns and look at me. It is a really nice day. I hear it’s supposed to cool down and maybe snow. Not a fan of that.

It is staff appreciation week. I work with some great students and teachers! Hats off to them. The students created clips I put into a video. 🙂 The kids are the best.

Got some more work to do. Hope everyone has a nice day!

Sponsored by Corona. I do think these are funny.

Anyway, late on the post today. Busy Monday yesterday and morning today. Lots of things accomplished which is good. The treadmill broke so I had to exercise outside. Don’t get me wrong, I like being outside doing walks, hikes, things of this nature. But usually don’t like to really go all out exercising. I like to do that by myself in my basement with no one watching. Oh well. Forced to. It was ok and I survived. The tulips are very pretty!

While I was outside exercising, I saw these signs for Ashwaubenon teachers. Really nice!

John Michael and I saw a mama duck and her babies on our walk!

Made some Hello Fresh pulled pork burrito bowls last night. Pretty good. 🙂

As I worked this morning, John Michael was “driving” his bus. I overheard him saying “settle down kids!”

We are off for our walk and gotta get some more things done today. Productive morning so far.

Happy Tuesday- Cinco De Mayo!

Beautiful weekend here in the Wisc. We got a lot of outside stuff in. John Michael played in the water a ton. Water is my biggest pet peeve inside because he spills it EVERYWHERE. But outside? No cares. He had a grand old time. Joe got some yard work done too. I mostly enjoyed it. However, I did do some cleaning, cooking, and laundry. Don’t worry, I wasn’t off the hook. 🙂 Remi and I enjoyed a nice walk outside too.

Made a Hello Fresh meal last night. It was lobster stuffed ravioli with shrimp. Really good!

John Michael helped me make banana bread yesterday too!

We FaceTimed with Papa D (it was his birthday yesterday!) and Nana Lynn. I forgot to take a screenshot of that. He wasn’t a very good conversationalist because he was obsessed with his pool. But here is a photo of Papa D and JM 🙂

We also FaceTimed Grandma Carole and Grandpa Lew. They were excited to see JM.

I was just in the basement the other day with a notebook, TV, and computer for a virtual conference. My conference ended in this virtual dance party. Joe and John came down for the dance party/happy hour thing. JM lost his mind for Baby Shark. Come on dude. So many other good songs were on… but you like Baby Shark… 🙂

This seems a bit dramatic for the TV…

Colder again today. Trying to get back into the zone of motivation. Well, back to lessons.

Have a good day!

 

The basement is clean and I’m excited to “go” to this conference by one of my favorite speakers, Rachel Hollis. I am looking forward to some time to myself and time to reflect, write, listen, think, dance, all the things.

JM had a good day looking for Easter Eggs on Amy’s land yesterday! Lots of fun toys there.

Pretty sure these two would just like to live there with all the vehicles and mud :).

Finally put up my license plates and wedding sign from Oompah! And who remembers the sand art from Mrs. Ksionzek’s craft shows??? Love it.

Have a good Saturday you all!!!

Remember that song that was just called, “Friday”? hahahah. Anyway, it’s GORGEOUS outside. Can’t wait to take a drive. Also busted out my sandals which is good stuff too.

Lessons today for a bit, meetings. Then a drive up to drop off some things on the porch of music colleagues that we got when we cleaned up the high school band room. Then will come back and work on the home front. Want to finish my basement before my virtual conference tomorrow!

Really messed up my back somehow in the last two days. Must have moved or lifted something wrong. Going to try to loosen it up before I exercise later. I normally do that in the morning but just couldn’t. But thinking after I move  and stretch for a bit it will feel better.

Well I am off! Have a great weekend!
