The State of the Thompsons

It is a big day here at the Thompson house!

  1. I already have our Halloween decorations down! YAY!
  2. Cub is at daycare, meaning I had time to take the decorations down without tripping over a sippy cup.
  3. I put creamer in my coffee. That’s right folks! Living large today!

Ok, really, I know those are non-important things that you don’t care about, but my point is that we are status quo here at the Thompson compound, and I  couldn’t be happier about it. Chas’s season starts on Thursday, and being at status quo going into that is an accomplishment with a 16 month old. Oh by the way, he thinks he is two and throws temper tantrums like it as well. In fact, I took him to school this morning, and before I could even walk out of the room, he hit his teacher. I bolted like I was on fire. I already suspect that they don’t like him there, simply because I spend half of my day not liking him some days.

My goal for November is to work towards a more regular week so that I can get more done. I spent last night creating an hour by hour list of how my day was going to go, and I am happy to report that in hour 3 of the day we are on schedule. Yes! The whole motivation for trying to start November differently is that I have some big personal goals in mind that I want to have time to work on. I recently went to a conference where the hashtag #StayHungry was used. I really like that hashtag for multiple reasons:

  1. I am always hungry, or hangry.
  2. It’s certainly motivating.
  3. It gave me something to write on my white board instead of a grocery list that consisted of diapers, toothpaste, and paper towels, all of which I finally just subscribed to on Amazon because I forgot every time I went to the grocery.

While I would like to continue to tell you about what I have in mind, I am on a schedule, and with only 4 minutes left in my “writing a blog post ans drinking coffee hour”, I have to wrap this puppy up.

I hope you all had a wonderful Halloween and a great start to November!
