It. Has. Been. A. Week. There has been much goodness wrapped up in this little week we lived, but there’s also been a lot of frustration, time change adjustment, weird weather, and exhaustion. Typically I catch up and reset on Sundays, but today is not that day for me. Here’s to next week, right?
For
better and worse, here are a few of the stand-out moments from this last week.
Last Sunday was, of course, the time change, and it
did not go smoothly for me. I was all messed up, sleep-wise, anyway, because
I’d had one day the week before when I slept all day AND night when I had the
24 hour bug…and then tacking a change of hours onto that was perhaps not my
best work. I came home from church, laid down, and slept until five p.m. WHAT? Needless
to say, not much felt photographically memorable about that day, but I did
enjoy this little picture of Lexi. She makes me laugh when she has her snack
from her paci Kong.
She continued making me laugh with her post-time-change
thoughts the next day. 😊 I was able to work from home all day Monday
until I had to leave for Bible study, and she had the best time hanging out
with me and lamenting her own messed up schedule.
I’ll tell you more about this memory tomorrow, but
one of my truly favorite moments this week was from the day I met with a committee as part of my next steps toward becoming licensed in ministry. There is so much more to say, but for
now, just know that I came away from this day overflowing with gratitude and so
humbled for their sacrifice of time!
Helping Ryan set up the trail mix bar for the birthday
party at his work was so much fun. It was also fun to hear the feedback
from his work friends as they visited to sample the treats! That popcorn bowl
was the very bowl the lady tried to take out of my hands at the thrift store a
couple of weeks ago! (His coworkers know that story, so I made sure to label “the
bowl” so they would know it!)
In the ever revolving door of Indiana weather, we
were pleased to take our first coat-free walk this week! That always feels like
a monumental day that should be documented and celebrated. It was on that same
walk that I spied the first buds on the tree in the neighbors’ yard. (I
wondered if they thought I was weird for stopping to photograph their budding
tree…if they even saw it.)
Ryan and my parents participated in the Pi day pie
tasting at Swiss Village. I thought this was such a cute event! Employees baked
the pies and then they dished out little samples for people to sample and vote
on. One of Ryan’s teammates took home first prize with a maple honey pecan pie!
We ended the week with some wildcard weather. Ryan and I were awakened in the night with some fierce storms, which thankfully Lexi slept through, and then yesterday was a mix of sunshine, clouds, rain, storms, and pretty much everything except snow. (I think that’s coming today.) I love spring…except this part.
