30 Days of Thanks: Just in Time

I almost wasn’t able to rally and get this post up.  I felt sort of blah all day (perfect match for the weather) and then the unthinkable happened…our computer had a major crash.  Which means I spent a couple hours before Chris came home worrying about my files — most specifically my pictures and videos of Nora.  But I said I was going to post every day, so here I am.  And, anyway, it’s good to remind myself that there are things I’m thankful for today even if the day felt yucky.

Today, I’m thankful for:

  1. My amazing husband who got up at 6 am with our little munchkin who knows nothing of “fall back,” and who is doing his darnest to rescue my precious files from the computer after a long day at work.
  2. Our Thursday morning play date with my friend Jess and little Miss E.  The hour and a half they were over here playing today was the bright spot of both my and Nora’s day.
  3. And, I’m thankful that the day is over and tomorrow will be a new one!

It's that time again... Girl Scout cookies! And this year we have two selling. Help them meet their cookies sales goals by ordering online. 

If you live nearby, choose girl delivery and help get cookie boxes out of our garage... Otherwise we're going to be giving them Girl Scout  Cookies for birthday and Christmas presents all year.

Bus stop selfie with Nora. This week she moved from her tiny charter school with only 18 eighth graders to the public middle school with over 200. And now she rides the bus.

The charter school wasn't challenging her enough, has a huge percentage of students who are disruptive in the classroom, and has been having trouble keeping teachers. Last year she loved it. But this year it was one thing after another, so right before Thanksgiving she and I went to go tour our neighborhood  middle school, and she immediately wanted to make the switch.

We've never had a kid in public school and I was nervous about how the transition would go from such a small school to a big one, but so far she's loving it and is glad she decided to move schools. It helps that she knows kids there already from her dance team. Hopefully she'll still be happy when she starts getting homework. Coming from a no homework school that may be a shock to us all.

Halloween 2022. Two witches, a murderous cat, and a creepy Victorian doll. 

Zara's costume was my favorite this year - Nora did her makeup and she wore my flower girl dress from my mom and step-dad's wedding. She might have worn it better. 😂
