I’m taking the day to catch up with editing photos and and blogging. As usual, my mind is blank so I’ll look through photos to jog my memory. Oh! We went on our first ski weekend together. It’s actually the second but the first one was Nordic skiing so it doesn’t count (sorry Nina). We […]

Love in the Time of Corona: Day 54

It looks like my blog/glob is turning into a weekly roundup, that’s how great I’m doing at staying busy. I got my latest batch of masks out the door and I’m taking advantage of the break in-between my next workflow to do a little catching up. It seems that no sooner than I fulfill my […]

Slow Life

I found these two memes on the internet. Together they reflect the highs and lows of motherhood, especially when you look at the context which is always, and forever, humor.

Taxiderpy

No one can talk behind my back all like, “Did you know that Vivienne went to a crazy sex thing?” like it’s juicy gossip. It’ll be more like, “Duh, she totally blogged about it.”

Force Feeding and DJ Sets

Between courses we stretched, did handstands, crunches, and I tried to teach everyone how to make their butts and boobs bounce, which I happen to be very good at.
