Q1 [January, February, & March] Recap 2023

OOF. Not only is this late for March, but it’s also a month late for February and TWO months late for January. I mean look at the photo, it’s Barnaby (super shaggy) very confused about why the tree we randomly had in the house has to go away. That’s how late this post is. Barnaby is now almost 70 lbs—so much for being a mini—and is still bringing comedy, joy, and life to us daily 😀 We try to post on Insta for him, but that’s even lagging at the moment.

November & December Recap 2022

Close up of nametag that has Whoops! I didn’t mean for November to just disappear, but with working the polls for elections, a road trip to NC with the puppy, my first set of final papers in grad school while working full time, and my general November/December busyness it just disappeared in a poof.

So, when I finally sat down to write my recap post sometime around the 15th or 16th I just thought “Nah, I’ll combine November and December and give myself a reprieve.” Now, in early January, I’m not sure that was the best idea—thanks past-Geoff, thanks a lot.

June Recap 2021

I am currently sitting poolside in Aruba waiting for the towel hut to open so we can reserve our chairs for the day. It is luxurious.

If things had gone to plan we would’ve been somewhere in Europe right now on a cruise ship, but they didn’t so I’m on this ridiculously beautiful and temperate island averaging a book every other day and getting a seriously nice tan 😀 We also spent a long weekend up in Maine earlier in the month for Tim’s actual birthday, so this month has just been travel travel travel.

May Recap 2021

Another whirlwind month in what seems to be the waning stages of the pandemic (I’m still not convinced).

After the last-minute trip home for my grandfather’s services, I immediately turned around and got on a plane again to go see Tim’s family in Las Vegas. For the most part the flights felt safe and the hotels/casinos kept people distanced, but it was weird being there as things started to open up! Like the table dividers came down our last day and I was like whoa-whoa-whoa, let’s not go crazy!

April Recap 2021

Photo of an airplane wing from inside the plane with Atlantic ocean and Boston Harbor Islands in the distanceJust when you think the months can’t get any longer they do, and you’re left with WT actual F. I’m currently on my third flight in three days—I’m just exhausted—and of the three this was the only one actually planned.

My grandfather passed away suddenly last weekend and that required a very quick (less than 36 hours) trip back to NC for the services and to see family. It was stressful and I’m exhausted, but I’m glad I was able to get down see everyone and be there for the service and then get back up again in time to make this flight to go see Tim’s family out west.
