“Busy” seems to be the buzz word around here lately…

I took on a few new freelance jobs (which means Starbucks is my bestie again).

Sunday school ended this past week. My kids created a Jewish Artifacts Museum for the big culture & food festival that our Temple held at the end of April.

They finished out the year making a Jewish heritage quilt to celebrate their own personal Jewish American histories. I love, love, love being crafty with my kiddos.

Hubby has been equally busy, getting ready to take over the Academic Skills Center at his college. I’m a super proud wife! We spent yesterday moving his office (which we have gotten alarmingly good at doing).

Although I am seemingly just as busy as last month, I have surprisingly (and happily) somehow managed to make more time for myself in the last few weeks:

I have been enjoying beautiful outdoor lunches…

fun reads…

good company…

the entertainment (and I use that word loosely) of D-list comedians (yes, that’s Pauly Shore)…

and blissful “me” nights, complete with wine, art, and trash TV.
