September 2025

Overall, this month has been pretty lowkey. Hudson started T-Ball and is absolutely crushing it ⚾  I love watching him play and make friends and also improve in his skills!

Holden and I have also instituted parent-Hudson nights. I’ve been having Mom-Hudson dates for over a year -- it started with us going to a restaurant, just the two of us, while Holden had plans on Wednesday nights. And now, that’s still a staple of the evening, but we will sometimes do other things, too - park time, movie nights, board games.

But I also realized that I was severely lacking in my own Me Time. So Thursdays are my nights for me to do WHATEVER I WANT.

Most of the time, I'll watch a movie and crochet. Or watch Thursday Night Football (see Fantasy Football Things).

But the last two weeks have included watching Nobody Wants This with Kristen Bell and Adam Brody. Holy cow, they are so good! ❤️

I'm only halfway through this first season, but I know the second season is dropping in a couple weeks! 🙌

So, this is my second season doing Fantasy Football. And I’m doing -mediocre- but I’m having fun!

Here For The Snacks started the season pretty strong (2-0), but we’ve lost the last two games; we lost Week 3 because Ceedee Lamb (Cowboys) got hurt very early in the game and my opponent had Jonathan Taylor (Colts) and he absolutely destroyed. Week 3 hurt because my defense (Vikings) put up 31 points. Unfortunately, Daniel Jones (Colts) wasn’t quite as productive as he was in Weeks 1-2, but the Colts were also playing dominating the Titans and he came out early; and Zay Flower (Ravens) also struggled in Week 3. And Week 4 stung because I kept Jones on the roster, but he didn’t put up many points (2 INTs will hurt ya) whereas Baker Mayfield (Bucs) did really well…on the bench. I also am just done with AJ Brown (Eagles). Like. C’mon.

This season has been wild with so many injuries and stuff. But I’m still having fun. 🏈

I’m still working on my Festival Blanket, but I’ve made a lot of progress. Will October be the month where I finish it all?!

I'm literally obsessed with the giant 3-D Flower!

Progress: 59/80 fully completed and about 8 more that are almost completed. ❤️🧶
