My Everyday Life Week 33

Here’s what this past week looked like- My Everyday Life Week 33

Stayed up late to watch the meteor shower with Casey on our deck. It was fun being huddled up together on a blanket watching shooting stars. 

We counted 8 until we called it quits. 

Putting together a reiki chart to follow. 

Blue is my favorite color these days.

Painting session with Neiley on my deck.

My favorite color combo/ a page from my sketchbook.

Intentions for the Week

Looking to get your head in the game? Tracy from Shutterbean makes a weekly TO DO LIST called her Intentions for the Week. Here's what this week looks like:

 

Intentions for the Week- Week 33 of 2020

Happy Monday, friends!

We are on the 33rd week of 2020. Crazy, right? This weekend went by fast. We hung at home like we’re supposed to. I took a virtual Reiki workshop and had an art date outside with my friend Neiley. It was definitely a good recharge and energy clearing weekend.  We are in the last few weeks of summer here. Cooper is still functioning without summer camp & school. Hopefully, we will have some free time to do something fun (during this pandemic) before he goes back to school. It’s Sunday night as I type this. Let’s get down our Intentions for the Week!

My Everyday Life Week 32

Here’s what this past week looked like- My Everyday Life Week 32

Energy shifts this week!  This week didn’t feel like every other week THANK GOD.

Spent some time at my brother’s pool in Los Angeles…social distancing.

We had quite a feast of pizza!

Our grandparents taught us to play Rummikub when we were little and we still play it as a family!

Too bad my brother and sister in law don’t follow the rules!  ;P

Currently July 2020

Currently July 2020

July.

July went fast for some reason.

Mostly because I feel like I didn’t get to fully enjoy it. Is this Summer?  

This is summer? It doesn’t feel like summer.

We are supposed to be starting school remotely in a few weeks.

What is that going to look like?

How are we going to keep making money working from home with kid?

How are we going to make time for ourselves, our relationships and our families?

We’ve been at home with Cooper since March 11.

It is now August. GOODBYE JULY.

In July I finished my #100thingsmyusedtosay project for my 100-day project this year!

I did it! My #100dayproject is completed!!! Thanks for your encouragement. I’m hoping to make a book of #100thingsmymomusedtosay so I can flip through it when I need her most ❤️ #keepgriefweird

A post shared by the handwriting club (@thehandwritingclub) on

 It was quite an emotional project. It helped me keep my Mom close and it brought up A LOT of feelings. With that came some healing. 

Thank you for your support!

It’s one less thing to worry about—forgetting all of the things my Mom used to say.  I’m planning on making a book of them so I can flip through when I need a little nugget from her. That’s a whole new hurdle to jump over.

Here’s the inside of my Currently Workbook for July:

I was inspired by the echinacea I’m growing!

JULY!

Happy Monday, friends!

It’s August. We’ve got a few weeks before schools start here in California. We’re doing distanced learning for the next few months and we’re getting ready for that. My brain is kinda spinning thinking about what the next year is going to look like if we have to do this all from home. I also cannot believe we are going to have a 6th grader!! WOW!  Anywho, let’s get to nailing down the week ahead. We are on the 32nd week of 2020. Crazy, right? Here are my Intentions for the Week.
