Sundays in Quarantine

I can't believe it's May already.  The weeks go by really fast but then when I think back to January and February it seems AGES ago.  Weird.  Anyway, today I'm documenting our typical Sundays in quarantine.

Before the quarantine, a typical Sunday was: sleep in until about 8:30 or 9:00 (me, Paul is up much earlier) relax on the couch with a cup of coffee and watch an episode of Flea Market Flip (same routine as Saturday but on Saturdays I usually watch either Fixer Upper or Flip or Flop), then get ready for church and go, if we're going, which we typically do about 1-2 Sundays per month, then lunch, miscellaneous stuff around the house, maybe walk Kona, grocery shop, dinner, TV or maybe family game night, read (me), bed.

Nowadays it's pretty much the same except we obviously don't go to church, but we have consistently watched it online every week.  And I sometimes do the grocery shopping on Thursday or Friday evenings, so I don't always have to do that on Sundays anymore.  And since the girls aren't needing me to drive them places, I have more time to do projects like organizing, scrapbooking, etc.

Coffee and Flea Market Flip



Online church

last week watching on the computer and then 

this week finally figuring out how to watch it on the TV


I walked while Kayley rode her skateboard around the neighborhood

(she wasn't always in the middle of the road)


Then I finally watched La La Land and later Dance Moms while I braided Kayley's hair.  I also managed to purge some drawers.

Our governor extended the stay-at-home order until May 31st (it was set to expire on the 4th) but even then things will be opening in phases.  I look forward to being able to go to restaurants and stores again (besides take-out and the grocery store).

A Day in My Life

  It's time once again for the Multiples and More Question of the Week:  A Day in Your Life. What is your schedule like? Do you work outside the home or stay home with the kids?   I am very blessed to be a SAHM.  Our schedule looks something like this: The girls get up anywhere between 7:20 and 8:20, but usually around 8:00.  Lately I've been letting them watch an episode of Dora so I can get on the computer and check email, Facebook, etc.  Otherwise they just play for an hour or so and then we have breakfast. By the time we're done with breakfast (fixing, eating and cleaning up) it's usually between 9:30 and 10:00.  We get dressed, and then we go wherever we're going that day (errands, park, playdate, etc.).  If it's a stay home day, I'll usually do a DVD workout while they just play upstairs and then we'll go for a walk or play outside after. Lunch is anywhere between 12:00 and 1:00, and nap is 1:30 or 2:00 to 4:00 ...

A Very Belated 2023 Recap

I guess I took a bit of a blogging break.  I only blogged three times last year and this will be my first post so far this year.  I just haven’t been in the mood but now suddenly I am.  We’ll see how long it lasts. Where to even begin?  A lot has happened since I last blogged.  The girls are about to turn 16, have jobs and are on the verge of getting their driver’s licenses.  We took an amazing trip to Bryce Canyon, Zion National Park, the Grand Canyon, Lake Powell and Las Vegas last summer.  We celebrated our 17th anniversary and are closing in on our 18th.  We attended some great concerts, did some fun hikes and have had lots of fun date nights, game nights and girl’s/guy’s nights out.  Ok, I guess that’s not all that much but whatever.  So, I guess to start off my 2024 blogging, I will recap 2023: I turned 54 in January. For President's Day weekend we went to Crescent Bar and from there Paul and Kayley went skiing at Mission Ridge and...

Show Us Your Life - Dining Rooms

It's time for this week's Show Us Your Life, brought to you by Kelly's Korner , and this week it's dining rooms. We have a very open floorplan, so when you walk in our front door the dining room is to the right and the living room to the left, with the fireplace straight ahead.  It's basically all one big room.     I bought the table and sideboard at Dania when I bought my first condo back in 2002.  It looked great in that condo, but for this house I wish I had black dining room furniture.  The table and sideboard are the same color as the trim, and then with the white walls (although we finally got one wall painted) it's just so blah.  And like most other rooms in the house, we have yet to hang curtains (not that we're going to hang them in every room, but we have yet to hang any). Looking in from the kitchen.  Need curtains! Looking in from the living room.  Notice the plastic protector underneath, for when the kids throw their sp...
