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).

Transfer Anniversary

Today is the 5-year anniversary of my embryo transfer!  5 years ago today I became pregnant with my girls (I wrote about it in more detail a few years ago).  It was a Saturday that year, also. Olivia and Kayley at 3 days post conception (wish I knew which one was which): And Olivia and Kayley 5 years later: That photo is actually a few weeks old.  I tried to take one for today and this is what I ended up with: {Sigh}

The Girls' Room

So it's kids' rooms this week at Kelly's Korner Home Tours.  Unfortunately, we haven't finished the girls' room make-over.  We recently transitioned from toddler beds to twins.  I would have loved to get bunk beds to save space, but the twin beds were given to us by friends of Paul's parents so we're making do.  They were wood-colored (oak, maybe?) so we painted them white.  It was challenging to figure out how to arrange their furniture because of the alcove/nook thingie on one side.  I couldn't do the obvious two beds perpedicular to the wall with a nightstand in between configuration, so I had to compromise. There are lots of finishing touches still to be done.  We need to replace their dresser, get a nightstand, put up a shelf (ledge) or two and some wall art, and curtains.  We're also going to paint.  I've had my heart set on purple for a long time, which is why I chose this bedding with some purple but not too much, but now...

Senior Prom

Last Friday was the girls' Senior Prom.  A whole group of them met at a nearby park for photos, then they broke off into smaller groups and went to dinner and Prom.  Olivia and her group rented an Air B&B for the night, and Kayley spent the night at a friend's house with another friend or two. Olivia and Gavin (just friends) Everyone Just the guys Just the girls Olivia and Kayley
