VERY soon I am replacing the engine in my Camry and am very excited for that!!
Babysitting has been aplenty, with more overnights, and more time with twins too. We are on week 3 of Catholic Schoolhouse starting again, and 2 other new babysitting deals that started for the school year. I also started up a weekly teaching with a 2nd grader once a week, so that is fun. Babysitting lately has meant lots of driving around, which has also been fun, and I do wish I had a Red Ford Expedition.
I bought my first ever Moby Wrap, its Olive Green, and it was my first purchase off of Facebook Marketplace, and I felt really good about the purchase, because the woman and I had 3 mutual friends from varied parts of my life. The Moby, which I have not had experience with wearing prior to my purchase, feels very comfortable and a lot like wearing a Moby.
I have my first 2 ergos--- a mint/black one that I need to sew up a little, and my favorite colors on an ergo, black and camel. Tomorrow I hope to try out one of my new ergos.
the end of August has meant the start of cross country and other fall sports for our family. I am looking forward to go to a few friday night football games.
the end of August has meant the start up of school, at home for some of us, community college for others, and online school for two of us.
I made a new Instagram account (a second account really) for record keeping and Idea sharing of how I live the Liturgical year. It feels pretty bare and sparse so far, but I am sure it will fill up soon.
I've gotten into audiobooks again and listen to them often. I've gotten into classical music again, and listen to it a lot. I have almost finished my show on Netflix, and will be ready to start a new one soon. I've still been doing some reading, but nothing particularly exiting.
I went to an apple orchard for the first time with friends this past weekend.
A few weeks ago I started using Google Calendars which feeds into my ical for the first time. Using google calendars and iCal are new for me.
Sunday, the home screen button on my phone fell off, so now I guess i really need to prioritize getting a new phone...
This afternoon I am off to the library, cross country practice to play with a new buddy and then, more driving around, and then babysitting, until I crash in bed tonight!

a new direction/update
Hi everyone---
It's been awhile. My last post was like 6 weeks ago. The end of April, and May this far, have flow by. And its almost June...
OK, so it has been a while. I have been doing some writing, but am just now, in the last week or so, getting back into the swing of typing my writing.
I've fallen out of several routines---including my treasured "liturgical year keeping", but it has come back, but in a different way now. My reading regime has kind of fallen apart, and only made a return when we went to Myrtle Beach. And, its been weeks, for sure most of this month, since I last said a rosary, so I fell out of that habit too....
Many exciting things have happened in my life, and, I hope to get back to a regular "liturgical year sharing" schedule--I have new booklets and other new discoveries to share!! But, because of tragic happenings, this blog may be taking a bit of a different direction. I know that sounds vague but, I don't feel like saying what exactly happened. but, for now, expect to maybe see things a little bit differently here. I'm not really sure what that will be, or if things will even end up being different at all, but I felt it was necessary to give a bit of a (admittedly vague) update, after an unplanned lapse in regular posting here.
I have a few drafts that I plan to finish and hit publish for, and then a couple of new things, but other than that, we'll see. Like I said, I hope to get back into my regular "liturgical year sharing" routine.
In other news...
In March and April, I volunteered at a Memory Care place (as apart of a school assignment), and from the first day, I liked it there and felt like I "fit" there. (Yes, I know how weird that sounds!!) The employees really liked me all along, and on my last day I took an application. I just sent it in yesterday, so wish me luck with that!! (2 years ago, or really anytime previous to the last 15 months of my life I would have never imagined myself eagerly wanting a job at a memory care place, enjoying being there, or cheerfully telling others that I'm applying to work at a memory care place---but, God ALWAYS has other---and better!!! plans!! I do hope to get the job there!!
My family and I went to Myrtle Beach May 12-18...it is probably our last "family vacation" as my sister has been engaged since March, and is set to get married May 23rd of next year. It was an interesting trip in that sense.
Well, this is all for now,
Stay tuned to see what happens!! (I'm sure you are all holding on with suspense!!)
