There are a few things I didn’t anticipate for the first quarter of 2020. Like a Global Pandemic. And still not being moved into our new house. And my dog dying. And for those reasons, I’m totally fine with not doing all the things and with adjusting my 2020 goals in the midst of this mess.

Well, friends, these are some strange times. I’ve been stuck at home 24/7 with my kindergartner, thrown into the deep end of homeschooling while also working full-time.

Welp. It’s safe to say this is not how I anticipated the first few months of this new year and new decade unfolding. These times are uncertain and scary, and I feel a heavy emotional load right now.

We recently took a long weekend and headed to Disney World. I think we’ve become those people. But it really is a fun place and it’s so close to home for us that it makes an easy trip.

We headed to the Outer Banks for the second year in a row this year, and it was another year of friends, adventure, and relaxing.

After a brutal winter of stress and work nuttery, we decided to do a last minute(ish) trip to Disney.

There’s an old wives’ tale out there that says your body’s cells renew themselves every seven years. You shed the old and become something new.

I need a treadmill, you guys. Actually, I need two treadmills. Stay with me here. I’m serious.

Can I get an “aarrrooooo"? Where are all my beagle peeps? I know you recognize that sound.

It’s no secret around here (or to anyone who knows me) that I have a beagle obsession. I want to rescue them all.

I'm turning 39 in the beginning of August, and I'm not entirely sure how that happened! I've been so busy enjoying life and accomplishing things that the years have flown by. 

It's no big secret around here that I've had some crazy health issues over the past few years.

So. I didn't exactly hit all of my April goals, but I knew some of them (okay, all of them) would be a stretch given my travel and work schedule.
