I’ve been working from home for as long as I can remember. I started around the time Belle was born and never really stopped. Even when I had a full-time job, I was taking on other freelance projects because, in all honesty, I like to keep myself busy. When Belle was born in 2009, I was working from home, designing websites and graphic design materials for different companies. I worked in between her naps, and it was not easy. The…
It wasn’t until I came to the US when I realized that the scenes in the movies, where the characters come back from work, throw their bag on the floor and lay down on the bed with their shoes on, was a real thing. I was shocked! The no shoes in the house rule definitely didn’t seem to exist! Growing up, shoes were never allowed in our house. If you’re getting ready to leave and you just put your shoes…
April’s reading list is going to be a bit different than the previous reading lists I’ve done on the blog. I’m going to focus on only one book. It’s very fitting because we’re going to talk about only one book and that book is The One Thing by Gary Keller. Get it? The one book is The One Thing. One of the best Gary Keller books currently available to read. Gary Keller Books: The One Thing Okay, so I’ve been…
March 2020 Reading List is finally here! I almost forgot to write this post. I have so many posts on my content calendar at the moment that I completely forgot to schedule this one. Oops! Okay, so here it is: March 2020 Reading List One Day in December by Josie Silver is a romance novel that I was very excited to start reading mostly because I’ve read so many great reviews about this book. If you love stories about true…
Since we’re so many people at home right now, I find it’s a little hard to go through the day without having some type of routine or schedule do the things. Here’s what workes for us: 7:30 – Wake up 8:00- – Breakfast 8:30-9:30 – Playtime (during this time Liam usually plays by himself with his toys, while Belle Is doing math books and reading) 9:30 – Snacktime 10:00-11:00 – Arts& Crafts (lately Liam has been into drawing with paint,…
This month my reading list is a bit shorter than what I originally planned. I ended up reading only two books, which is one book less than last month. I thought it was going well, but towards the end of the month, it got a bit busy and I found myself having trouble finding time to read. Well, I could have probably not watched one whole season of Locke & Key on Netflix. I’m sure that would have given me…
These days my Friday nights look a lot like this – a glass of wine, maybe some cheese, comfy clothes, and a few binge worthy TV shows to watch. I love getting into a good show, and when I do, I can’t stop until I have finished all the available episodes. My biggest frustration is when I find something I like but it has just started, and I have to wait until the next week to see another episode. How…
One of my goals for 2020 is to read more fiction and read more in general. I always used to be a big reader. But somewhere along the way, I stopped reading as much as I used to, and I’d like to change that. It’s all about making an effort, which is true for so many things. I don’t think it’s about finding time but more about prioritizing and putting reading before other things. For example, I decided that I…
