Sleep deprivation update: I put the milk in the pantry and the cereal in the fridge. Don't ask me how long it took to notice.

Those first crocuses are poking through and I'm not trying to be dramatic but they might have saved my life

Commute was a nightmare this morning. Three accidents on the main road. I listened to the entire first act of a podcast I've been meaning to start. Silver lining? 🚗

My kid laughed at their own hiccups for five minutes straight and honestly that's the energy I need to carry into spring

March 1st and I'm already checking the weather forecast like it's going to magically say 75 degrees. Spoiler: it won't.

Sleep deprivation has me convinced I dreamed half of yesterday. If you saw me at the grocery store looking confused, that wasn't me. It was my doppelgänger.

February is almost over which means March is coming which means warmer weather is THEORETICALLY possible. I'm holding onto this hope. 🌱

My kid did the funniest thing yesterday and I wish I could explain it but honestly it only made sense in the moment. Parenting is chaotic and I love it.

Road trip playlist is queued, traffic predictions are looking grim, and my coffee is cold. Typical Thursday commute.

the coffee shop barista knows my order by heart now. Not sure if that's a win or a cry for help.

Groundhog saw his shadow so apparently six more weeks of winter. The groundhog is my enemy now.

Baby milestone photos have officially taken over two entire storage drives. At what point does it become a problem? Asking for a friend.

First crocuses are poking through and I'm taking it as a personal sign that we're almost out of winter. Manifesting 60 degree days ASAP.

My partner asked me yesterday what I did all day and I couldn't list a single concrete thing. But also I'm exhausted? Parenting math doesn't add up.

The identity shift from 'person who sleeps' to 'person who exists on two hour intervals' is REAL. Do I get a medal or just dark circles?

Listening to this new audiobook series and honestly it's the only thing getting me through my commute these days. #podcastaddict

Still waiting for that spring warmth to arrive. Currently wearing thermal layers under my coat. It's not a look.

Traffic rage is usually not my thing but today someone cut me off and I may have honked. The baby was judging me. Fair.

my kid looked at me this morning and I swear they smiled on purpose and not just gas. These milestones hit different. 💛

The highway was a parking lot so I started planning our spring garden in my head. Tomatoes? Basil? A way to get out of the house more? Yes.
