Hello Macaronians!
❄️ It's a snowy and cold week, which I don't love, but I loved seeing a couple of memes this week that in only 70 days, it will be 🌸 Spring!
We finally got our 👅 tongue tie releases done (after that frustrating string of November and December illnesses 🤒 delayed us). We're three days post-procedure, and the changes are already fascinating! Following Brittany's guidance at Joyful Breathing, we're doing our post-op stretches 🙌 and seeing daily improvements. While we're still on soft foods 🍜 due to some discomfort, things are getting better each day—I even enjoyed a slice of pizza 🍕 yesterday!
What were we up to this week?
🌌 Sleepover in Lakewood: My daughter had a fantastic sleepover with her friends from Keystone Science Camp down in Lakewood. We made the most of those long drives 🚗 by stopping at Christy Sports for ski boot fittings 🎿. Speaking of winter gear, Sunday took us to 2nd Time Sports, hunting for more ski equipment. My son still needs boots, so that's on my to-do list this week ✅.
🍺 Prost: My husband and I treated ourselves to a Sunday afternoon at Prost, enjoying their hefeweizen 🍻 and chicken doner, yum!
💎 Polka Dot Powerhouse Meeting: I connected with my incredible Dot Sisters at our monthly Polka Dot Powerhouse meeting. Our speaker was Marta Spirk, who shared fantastic insights as an Empowerment Coach for Women Entrepreneurs 🌟.
What are we up to next week?
📚 Book Club: I'm hosting at my house, where we'll discuss Wicked. I'm a bit behind on my reading schedule 😅, but I'm thoroughly enjoying revisiting this story and can't wait to hear everyone's thoughts.
🏀 Basketball: My son is starting basketball with Hyland Hills Recreation, which will keep our evenings and Saturdays busy 🗓️—but seeing him doing what he loves makes it all worthwhile 💖.
🏠 Weekend Plans: We're looking forward to hosting friends this Saturday, followed by some relaxation time 🛋️ and progress on our basement project 🔨.
🐄 4-H @ Giggling Life Care Farm: Our 4-H Officer Meetings and Club meeting kicks off next week. It's an exciting time of year as we begin focusing on projects for the August county fair 🎡. One of my favorite parts? More animals will be arriving at the farm soon 🐑🐇!
That's it for me this week. Wishing you all a wonderful week with your kiddos!
Peace, love, and macaroni,
Susan
