Today’s Goals:
Knock out top of the month admin work.
Find some time when its not raining to walk Howie
Find some time when its not raining to exercise myself
Carve out time for unplugged time with my fiance.
Go to bed at a decent hour.
7:30 AM - Wake up and say goodbye and I love you to Kara who goes to the office daily.
7:35 AM - Howie come running back up the stairs after sending mom off to work. He wants to get back in bed for some good lounging.
8:30 AM - Time for Howie’s morning walk, though he views it as a neighborhood patrol.
9:00 AM - Sit down for work. I am a WFH employee so here is my set up. You’ll notice my very valuable BK trophy sits on my desk. I won’t get into the details but know it might be my greatest possession.
10:00 AM - My “boss” watches intently as I work.
12:00 PM - Rain has stopped and I take a mid day walk. Four miles from our door to the end of the Bala Cynwyd Heritage Trail and back. Usually I end my work day with this walk, but tonight is date night so I use my lunch break for exercise. I listen to my favorite podcast: Throughline by NPR (highly recommend for history nerds, politics nerds and curious people alike.)
3:00 PM - An afternoon pick me up. I am a coffee fiend, and after a trip to Costa Rica in 2022, my beautiful fiance got me a Chemex which helps brew some of my favorite coffee. Today’s brew: House blend from Pilgrim Roasters in Manayunk. Recently learned the owners of Pilgrim are our neighbors!
5:30 PM - Date night! We get to Mia Regazza just in time for some happy hour wine and Risotto balls, before a delicious dinner filled with great conversation.
8:00 PM - You will find our little family planted on our couch for TV and tea almost nightly. (PS. Go Birds.)
