Hello! It’s been a few days…but it feels like it’s been quite a while since I just sat down to write about what’s going on around here. We’ve been keeping busy this week – Anika did some soccer camp and Emma, Noah, and I explored downtown Salem in the mornings while she was busy. This evening Emma’s softball team all met up one last time at the Brookside Inn in Carlton and we had a picnic to celebrate the end of softball season.
I also had a hair appointment today as well, so between talking with my hair dresser for three hours, then chatting with a couple other moms at the gathering tonight, I’m feeling a little more connected and content. Sometimes it’s hard being home a lot with the kids – don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t change a thing, however, when I sit here and work from my computer or only hang out with them; I do tend to get a little lonely and miss that adult interaction – so today was good for me. All of the kids explored the grounds at the Inn and walked around on the trails and made s’mores in the fire pit. It was a good evening.
I just wanted to check in since the next couple of days will be busy – heck I’m supposed to be awake in 5 hours to go to work and I’m obviously still up. I think it may be a multiple coffee day tomorrow.
Not to ramble on too much, but I’ve been working ‘behind the scenes’ lately too – yesterday I finally broke down and created an updated media kit that I can send to people and companies about this little space of mine here on the Internet. I’ve been overwhelmed with emails and have talked about creating a media kit for quite some time now, so last night I spent a couple hours and finally got something done. It’s going to make going through all of those emails a lots easier now.
I know, it’s a tough job, but someone has got to do it. 🙂
Cheers to Friday my friends – I hope you have an amazing weekend and spend time with people you love. I’ll be chatting again real soon! J
