Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 157)

Welcome to March! And slightly longer days. Sunset is now almost 6pm, which is glorious. Finishing work days before it's completely dark is just lovely. For those of you who don't live at latitudes closer to the poles, the difference between 4pm and 6pm sunsets is everything. I'll handle the cold, wet days just fine,…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 131)

Welcome to September! Hopefully we're now done with the weather in the 90s (maybe even the 80s after this week) here in the Pacific Northwest. Though there are some serious heatwaves going on elsewhere right now, regardless of the fact that we've ticked over into meteorological fall. Climate chaos is just getting started, folks. In…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 92)

Monday we took the kiddo in for his second Covid shot. Due to staffing shortages, a lot of appointments locally have been cancelled, so I felt especially thankful that he kept his appointment. T-10 days until my birthday and two weeks after his second shot. Fully vaccinated on my birthday. With the Omicron news flying…

Friday’s Frugal Five (Another Week)

It's been another week since I wrote about my thoughts after the events of January 6th when a deadly breach of the US Capitol building occurred, and days since President Trump was impeached for the second time - a first for a United States President. The Senate is currently not planning to reconvene until after…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 40)

Monday was our first day back to work/homeschool after our five day break for the Thanksgiving holiday. Since the husband and I both have a weekday off in addition to the weekends, we had Wednesday off in trade of our normal days off, which were holiday days. Something I hadn't considered about 4 day weeks…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 32)

Thirty two weeks into our experience here in Kirkland, Washington, the one time hotspot in the United States when cases of COVID-19 first arrived here in the United States. Thirty two weeks, and I'm certain we're in it for at least another thirty two, which feels long and hard. I'm not sure how long I'll…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 27)

And like that, it's now September, though the weather isn't acting like it. We should hit eighty degrees today and the mid-eighties for the next week, which is considerably warmer than typical for our area. We only hit ninety degrees a couple of days this whole summer, so mid-eighties for a full week is really…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 23)

We've somehow ticked over into August, which means this past Tuesday was our state's primary elections. Washington is a 100% vote by mail state, which is completely awesome. I've actually never had to go down to a polling booth to vote. Of course, I waited too long to put it in the mail (no stamp…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 21)

This has been a short "week" since my last update was on Monday after our week long camping trip above the Methow Valley. The week absolutely flew by, and it is somehow already Friday again. Time is strange right now - both so fast and so disjointed. A bit like time with a newborn, except…

Quarterly Goals Check In: July 2020

Well, I think I had some unfounded hope at the last quarterly update back in April that things would be more back to normal by now, but they clearly aren't. COVID cases here in the United States are higher than ever, and I'm concerned what 4th of July gatherings are going to do to them…
