1. Hello and happy Friday! It’s been a minute; I hope you all have had a wonderful start to the spring season and are enjoying some warmer weather and lighter evenings!
2. A quick Dominic update – the last I shared, his scan had shown continued improvement though not yet back in remission, and he was to do two more rounds of treatment and then re-scan to reevaluate. He just completed his second of those two rounds last week after being delayed two weeks in a row due to low counts. He’s feeling really good this week, and we will head back to NY for scans in a couple of weeks to see where things are and what his next steps will be.
3. Joseph and Isabelle are both doing track this spring, which is new for both of them, and they are enjoying it! (Dominic did it last year and is signed up for this year, but hasn’t been able to make it yet.)
4. The kids were on break the week after Easter, and although Dominic was due to be in treatment, he got delayed, which turned out to be a lovely week of us all home together, plus we got to be home for Isabelle’s birthday; she turned EIGHT! The kids got to relax and just play a ton, AND I introduced them to Full House! One of my favorites growing up, and they all liked it 😁
5. What have you read recently? I finished The Lincoln Highway while I was at the hospital with Dominic last week, but oof, it was a slog for me. I didn’t love it. I just began Theo of Golden after receiving so many recommendations for it!
6. Why Cookbooks are More Approachable Than Ever Right Now >> What are your favorite types of cookbooks?
7. Do you journal regularly? Here are 46 morning journaling prompts if you’d like to give it a go!
8. The NHL playoffs… ughhhh our Penguins, breaking our hearts! I’d love to see them win four games in a row, but that is highly unlikely. It’s been a fun season watching them, and I was hoping for a little more from the playoff run!
9. What have you been watching lately? I saw that season two of Paradise came out, so I want to catch up on that!
10. TGIF! These two just had great checkups!
