2021: Growth

January 6, 2021 Katy Leave a Comment

Last week I shared how my 2020 word of the year worked out, and today I want to talk about my word for 2021. 2020 was a year of introspection for me. It was a year where I really processed through a lot of what makes me the person I am, and why I do the things that I do. And armed with that knowledge, I'm heading into 2021 focused on growth. Now don't get me wrong - I have spent most of my life trying to grow as a person. To know more. To keep learning. To do better. And that's going to … [Read more...]

2020 Year in Review

January 1, 2021 Katy 1 Comment

2020 was quite a year. How's that for an understatement? But 2020 was actually a good year for me in many ways, although certainly not how I expected it to be at the start. My 2020 word of the year was calm. My life by the end of 2019 had gotten pretty hectic and chaotic, and I was ready to slow things down and be calm. Although that might seem laughable, I did manage to calm some aspects of my life. I quit my job at Dunkin mid-January. I was getting stretched too thin trying to juggle … [Read more...]

Calm

February 1, 2020 Katy 1 Comment

Whether or not you're part of the trend, chances are over the past month you've seen people post about their Word of the Year. And while I haven't had a chance to share mine yet, I did choose one. My word this year is calm. This word came to me a day or two after Christmas, when I was in the middle of influenza, which I caught from two of my children. We had relatives visiting, I had finished a busy weekend of work at Dunkin' a few days before, I had barely finished the Christmas … [Read more...]

Pajama Tuesdays

May 8, 2019 Katy 1 Comment

On Mondays, we do grocery shopping. On Wednesdays, we go to the library. And on Tuesdays, we wear pajamas. My children know this now. If we happen to have something scheduled on a Tuesday, they gasp and say, "But Mom, that means you have to get dressed!" We didn't always do things this way. But for this current season of life, Pajama Tuesday is a must. You see, I am an introvert. In simple terms, that means that I recharge by being alone. And let me tell you, as a homeschooling … [Read more...]

A New Adventure

May 8, 2018 Katy 1 Comment

I've been quiet recently. Mostly because I've been doing a lot of processing. You see, we're moving this summer. The basics are this: my husband got accepted to a PhD program, and we'll be heading to Texas sometime in the next few months. Where it gets more complicated is in the planning process. There are people to say goodbye to on this end, boxes to pack, and things to sell.  There are houses to look at on the other end, and travel plans to finalize, and new jobs and old jobs and questions … [Read more...]
