Alright. Here we go. Getting into our iced coffee. Because iced coffee is my jam.

add_filter( ‘dfi_thumbnail_html’, ‘dfi_add_class’, 10, 5 );
function dfi_add_class( $html, $post_id, $default_thumbnail_id, $size, $attr ) {
// Add a class to the existing class list.
$attr[‘class’] .= ‘ my-class’;

return wp_get_attachment_image( $default_thumbnail_id, $size, false, $attr );
}

After reading here, head on over to visit Coco and Deborah, our awesome link-up hosts.

Over coffee, I would tell you…

That we had the most amazing Wind Ensemble concert last night. We have three more concerts: the school Spring Concert, MPA States, and an MFA Invitational concert. Every time I hear them play, they just get better and better and better. I actually got goosebumps last night.

Over coffee, I would tell you…

That speaking of band, the marching band had their Leadership Camp last week, in order to interview and “audition” for leadership positions. A has been talking about becoming Clarinet Section Leader since marching season ended last year. The list came out on Sunday night, and guess what? He and his friend earned co-leader! It’s a large incoming group (at least 11 students), so they needed two. They are both so thrilled and ready to do the best job this year. I am bursting with pride, and can’t wait for next season!

Over coffee, I would tell you…

That somehow, I forgot to share my newest nails. They are perfect for spring. Leonidas loves them, too. Or he just thinks I have food.

Over coffee, I would tell you…

That we got to try a new biscuit place, and it was phenomenal. It’s been hard getting out to new restaurants, so when I have the chance to do it, I am all in.

Over coffee, I would tell you…

That it’s Easter weekend, and it’s been tough to get in the spirit. I’m grateful for two days off, but I’m still dragging. I honestly just want a day to sleep in. Like really sleep in. But between meetings, appointments, and everything else, it’s just not going to happen. Oh, well.

What would you share over coffee? How was your April? What holidays are you celebrating?

    Big congrats to A – that’s exciting! My son’s spring concert is coming up this week and I can’t wait. I’m always amazed at the talent of these kids.

    I so feel you on wanting a day to truly sleep in – I keep wishing, but I think until I can take a vacation I see it happening. Sigh…

    You have the best nails… I get mine done but stick to French..

    April should be better than March… trying to get back into running but playing it safe.

    I’m Jewish and my hubby is Catholic but neither one of us is very religious. I get to celebrate both holidays.

    Congratulations to your son! That’s exciting. And how fun that he and his friend are co-leaders. My daughter has a bunch of end-of-year concerts coming up and I’m looking forward to them (the last concerts of middle school!)
    I love your nails, as always. I’m not allowed to wear nail polish at my job- I know. Don’t become a massage therapist.
    I’m working today and tomorrow but can sleep in on Sunday- I’m looking forward to that! I hope you get some time to relax this weekend.

    I am working tomorrow and I am on call all weekend, so yeah. But what’s so odd this year is that my boys are both out of town, as is my FIL and my sister. So Easter is just me and the hubs and my parents. Very weird but it’s ok.

    Glad to see your son is doing so well with all his activities!

Drinking in that sunshine for sure! It was a bea Drinking in that sunshine for sure! 

It was a beautiful morning that turned quickly into a beautiful day. Sundays are hard because they are immediately  followed by Mondays, and Mondays are hard.

Lots to catch up on this week! April is chock full of holidays, birthdays, days off, and events, so let’s get to it!

About this morning… I was up and out early to d About this morning…

I was up and out early to drive to Flagler Beach for the #Missionpossible5k.

It was a small, well organized event, with an easy-to-follow course (the last mile was almost exclusively an ocean view), with great shirts and swag.

I was really pleased with my performance, and even more pleased with this beach sunrise. I’ll share more on the #RunnersRundown on Wednesday, so stay tuned!

Where did you run or race this weekend?

#Running #streakingwiththecoolkids
Oh, hello long sleeves. I’m here for it. So goo Oh, hello long sleeves. I’m here for it.

So good to stretch the legs today. I was super sore after a @runsmartofficial cross training session last night, and needed to just get out there and let the fresh air work its magic.

What are you up to today? I really need to take a moment with my calendar and get some plans locked into place.

Check out those blue skies! I got to sleep in AND Check out those blue skies!

I got to sleep in AND take advantage of some cooler temps. It really didn’t warm up until my last mile and that was just fine.

I feel like this month and next are really just flying by. So much is going on, and I want so badly to enjoy it all, including the crisp, sunny days where we find them!

#Running #streakingwiththecoolkids
Kind of a meh day. I got in some walking miles and Kind of a meh day. I got in some walking miles and some balance and strength work through @runsmartofficial.

Tomorrow will be cooler and more productive for sure!

Happy Monday! I don’t know about you all, but y Happy Monday!

I don’t know about you all, but your girl is TIRED. It is so hard to roll out of bed some mornings. Ugh. 

I managed (finally) and banked six miles in some gross humidity. And now it’s time for some self care and then back to work.

Also. We have somehow acquired a pecan tree? Any tips on the growth and care of this would be greatly appreciated!

#Running #streakingwiththecoolkids
Sunday fun day! Just a short walk to start the da Sunday fun day!

Just a short walk to start the day and work out some stiffness. Some days, my ankle just doesn’t want to cooperate 🫤

I have been making graphics and content all day for a client, and now I’m about to do hair and makeup for a little event. Wheee! 

This week is going to be BUSY! There’s a lot of changes to the regular routines (nails, a digital learning day, after school and weekend programming) and I have a race on Saturday and bocce ball on Sunday! 

Who else is ready to dive in?!
