Day 6

Breakfast: whole wheat bagel (not "clean") with natural peanut butter. Coffee.

Lunch: My parents took me out to Le Peep. It's hard to get something that isn't a salad! I ordered 2 pieces of French toast, 2 pieces of turkey bacon and coffee. I didn't use syrup or anything on my French toast, and it was surprisingly still tasty. And more coffee. Probably too much coffee... (I never pay attention to the amount of caffeine I consume a day when pregnant/nursing; hopefully Norah doesn't decide to be touchy with it.)

Snack: Quinoa banana bar

Dinner: Hobo packet (hamburger, red potato, green pepper, zucchini, carrots on the grill), grapes


Snack: Carrot cake Larabar (I had one of these a few years ago and thought it was so gross. Today, I actually thought it tasted great! I'm excited to try the other flavors I got (lemon cake and cappuccino).


Workout: 30 minute walk with the double stroller.. lots of hills on the route I took today which basically made it an arm workout too.

I mentioned I landed a new job and now I can share the details! Next year I will be teaching Reading at Elkhorn Middle School! I will have one section of 8th grade and five sections of 7th. Though nervous as change is always a bit unsettling.. I am so excited :) https://www.elkhornweb.org/ems/ Books I've read/am reading: Small Great Things by Jodi Picoult = *****        Fascinating views on racism-- I've found myself more and more intrigued by this topic and finding books that investigate it more. Thunderhead by Shusterman = *****         The second book in the Scythe series. Maybe the first time the second book was better than the first!! Fantastic dystopian YA read. A Wrinkle in Time by L'Engle = ***        I'm listening to it because it's a book I may be able to teach next year to my new 7th graders. I read it in elementary school but didn't remember it that well. It's ... okay. I despise the audio book's narrator, but some of the langua

To review: In February I joined Usborne Books & More as a consultant. I honestly never thought direct sales was for me, but I have loved every minute of this adventure. I even promoted to Team Leader in August! I have doubled my kids' library, met tons of friends, grown out of my comfort zone in so many neat ways, and helped my family earn quite a bit of "extra cash" -- aka Mexico trip this spring break ;) I read (and listened to) many books in 2018! I deleted all social media apps from my phone (except for Facebook) during Advent-- and I think I'll leave them off. Instead of aimlessly browsing Instagram, then Facebook, then Twitter, then Snapchat, and then starting over... I now pick up a book! Or play with my kids! Or do the chore I was procrastinating :) In June, Scott and I traveled to St. Louis for a long-weekend trip to attend a wedding. We went kid-free and it was a glorious time exploring pizza places, City Museum, and Budweiser. I c

I'm on Spring Break ALL WEEK, and it's glorious. I celebrated my birthday for three straight days with a date night, a party with my friends, a celebration with my family, and another in-law celebration to come. (Can you tell I love my birthday...??) Today I took my kiddos to daycare so I could get a cavity filled (bleh) and spend the rest of the day grading (also bleh), but it was nice to focus and get a nice chunk of that done. That way... I can spend the other parts of my spring break reading, cleaning, and catching up on This is Us.  ONE. Note to self socks. I was gifted with a pair from my godson that say "I am blessed." They're comfy and a great reminder throughout the day! TWO. The Thunderhead by Neal Shusterman. I mean... I maybe can't say it's my favorite yet since I'm only on page 80. But I did just pick it up from the library at 2pm. So far it is just as great as Scythe.  THREE. Yogi Calming Tea (usually found in the "he
