I can’t believe it’s been four almost five weeks since I returned from my long-anticipated visit back home with my family. Time just won’t slow down and it’s been hard to get back into my blogging game (as you can tell). I had an absolutely wonderful time and soaked up every minute. I can also…
Another year is in the books. It’s hard to sum up a year, but as always, I’ll try. Like last year, I created this little infographic. 2018 was a mixed bag. Some things didn’t go as planned, some things were frustrating as hell (especially politics), but we also had some wins this year. I got to see…
Amazing. Here we are in 2018. I still remember when we celebrated the new millennium and now almost 20 years have passed. Crazy-pants. Like last year, I created this little infographic to kind of sum up my year in some numbers. But of course, there is so much more. Overall, this year was a good year…
Here goes another year. It’s amazing how time speeds up the closer we get to the end of the year, isn’t it? I know, it’s all perception, but perception also is all we have. 2016 was a pretty good year for me personally, but of course, on a larger scale, 2016 was peppered with some…
Monday through Wednesday (10/10 – 10/12) was the only time we took an overnight trip while my parents were here. My parents had seen much of the Californian Coast already save for the stretch north of Fort Ross and the stretch between Santa Cruz and San Francisco. So, we decided to drive to Santa Cruz…
On Thursday (10/6), we had some time to kill in the morning and headed to the historic downtown area in Folsom. Can you imagine that I had never been there? It’s such a cute, historic main street though. We walked around a bit and had a drink at a small café. Shoe twins We got…
As I have shared numerous times over the last few weeks (and you’re probably tired of hearing about it already), my parents were here for 2,5 weeks at the beginning of the month and let me just say that we had the most wonderful time. Yes, it’s nice to have my bedroom back (ha!), but…
Another year comes to a close. It’s been a good year. It started out a little rough but then things got better and better. My word for the year was “now” and I am glad that I was able to put this word into action more times than not. January We rung in the new…
I haven’t consistently done annual recaps in the past, mostly because I was traveling over the holidays and didn’t find the time to do them, as I had so much stuff to catch up on. However, this year – inspired by some other bloggers – I decided to do a little summary of 2014 and…
Two weeks ago, I decided to do something completely by myself again. I don’t have a problem doing things by myself. I actually am someone who craves me-time quite a bit and I don’t need to be around people all the time. This is one thing when you’re at home just hanging out by yourself,…
