I have one of those winter colds that is making me cough my brains out (complete with asthmatic wheezing). Some people have an ugly cry. Me too. I also have an ugly cough. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The Universe gave me a serious break today, in the form of 5” of snow, covered in a sheet of ice. 🙌🏻 I was able to work from home as a result. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That meant that I had time to make this delicious, life-giving, noodle-y vegetable beef soup for dinner.
And mini cheesecakes for dessert...but the soup is the star of the show for this sick Mama!

Keeping it nice & simple today for lunch. My kids love this, and it brings me back to my own childhood (minus the spinach, because we didn’t eat spinach at lunch when I was a kid 😂🤷🏻‍♀️). Which meal instantly transports you back to your childhood?

I always feel so much hope and joy wrapped into my Saturday morning bowl of oatmeal. It feels like the kickoff of an adventure...especially on a 3-day-weekend.
Just me? 😃🤷🏻‍♀️

The first time that I nonchalantly told my husband a couple of years ago that I thought we should move our laundry room upstairs from the basement, he was like 🤪🤣🤔🤦🏽‍♂️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
He’s not usually on board with my “ideas” right from the jump, which is actually a really good thing. I’ve learned that when I get pushback on my ideas, it’s an opportunity to consider just how important/practical/sensible/necessary my idea really is. I have a lot of ideas...so the pushback gives me a chance to weed out the bad ones. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This idea...the one about the laundry room?! It was an idea that nagged at me again and again. The house was so perfectly set up for this purpose. We had a practically useless room (“the sunroom”, aka “the bird room”), and since it was a questionably-constructed addition, it’s not well insulated or climate-controlled. And the old laundry room was basically right below this under-utilized sunroom. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It couldn’t be living space, dining space, or a playroom. It could, however, become a bomb-ass laundry room/mud room! It would also give us an opportunity to add a back door to the house that was *not* attached to our bedroom ( because that gets a little awkward when your guests have to go through your bedroom to get to the pool ☺️)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, 6 months, 2 contractors, a new washer (plus an unintended new dryer), 6 trips to IKEA, and a dented new dryer top later...it’s done. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And it was a GREAT idea (if I do say so myself...🤣), and I love it. 👊🏻
