I Know, It’s Been A While.

It’s been a while!

Life’s been crazy since my last post. We’ve had some changes happen in our lives (but mostly mine) that’s kept us pretty busy.

  • Most importantly Marvel turned 1! I can’t believe I now have a toddler! She’s not quite walking yet. She decides to take steps one day then the next refuses.
This is one of the few pics I got on my phone from her birthday.

  • We all got pretty sick for a week just before Marvel’s birthday. We were going to do a fun photo shoot with a smash cake and these cute clothes I picked out for her. With how sick we all got it was impossible.
  • I’ve kept being Gluten Free. It’s quite the lifestyle change but I do feel a lot better!
  • My day job disbanded my team. It was quite an emotional time but thankfully I…
  • Started a new position at work. My new team is great and I’ve been having a lot of fun learning new things. A change of scene is good!
  • I signed up to sell LuLaRoe. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, LuLaRoe is a direct sales company that sells clothes. There’s a lot of demand because the prints are limited and their leggings really do feel like butter! I’ve got about another month or so left in the queue.

  • We visited some heroes at Cricut HQ! We loved celebrating 10 years of Cricut with these MARVELous heroes!

  • Star Wars Day! My work was seriously the best on May the Fourth! They had themed Star Wars food and the movies playing all day! Plus we got a special visit from Chewbacca! I was sad I had to miss it last year because I was already on maternity leave, but this year made it all worth it!

Even though it may not seem like a lot, for a while there I felt as if I was drowning in everything that was going on. I would get off work and not be sure what to do next since there was a lot on my plate! Of course it may seem like I’m taking more on my plate with LuLaRoe, but it was about that time I decided to sign up that I started to feel like I could breathe again.

I’m excited to bring you some more posts. I’ve got a lot of great ideas flowing in my brain and written down on notepads on my computer and phone. Please stay tuned!

And in the meantime, here’s a pic of the other half of the Two Married Geeks with our little Marvel on Memorial Day <3

As the year is coming to an end, I wanted to highl As the year is coming to an end, I wanted to highlight something I’m very proud of. 

You see, I used to be an avid reader. I read ALL the time. Like the kid who would stay up way past her bedtime and being a book wherever I went sort of thing. 

One of the realizations for me that I was suffering from anxiety and depression was that I barely read anymore. Like I could count on one hand usually how many books I’d read in a year. And this devastated me because it was and is something I love. 

This year, like others, I made the goal to read more. Didn’t matter what kinds of books or if it was fanfiction. I knew I just needed to read. I got a kindle paperwhite and that plus my AirPods that I got (I count listening as reading because sometimes that’s all I can do), and my meds, helped me to do more. 

When I got this notebook a few months ago, I listed what I’d read and the sight of it makes me so happy to look at. They’re not in chronological order but for next year I will do it that way. 

A lot of these books too have been advanced readers copies! And that’s been really fun to read and review those and I’ll continue to do so.

My (sometimes) angel practicing her Korean. I trie My (sometimes) angel practicing her Korean. I tried speaking to her in French but she was stubborn and wanted to speak what she wanted to speak 😹 I can’t complain though because the fact she’s learning an Uber complicated language like Korean makes me proud! And we couldn’t do it without @talkboxmom Check them out with the link in my bio!

Ten years ago today I married my best friend. I kn Ten years ago today I married my best friend. I know that’s cliche to say but he is my person. He is my positive when I can only think of the negatives in my life. He makes me laugh (and I thankfully make him laugh too!) and I love the family we have created. Even though times are tough and we’ve been hit by many imperial cruisers in our life, we make it through.

Today was my birthday. 33! Sadly I did not get to Today was my birthday. 33! Sadly I did not get to fulfill my dream of going to Club 33 for my birthday but I did order cheesecake from @juniorscheesecake through @goldbelly and it was divine! My brother @barney_bro is in the pic with me because his birthday is 2 days after mine. For basically our whole lives we’ve always celebrated together and I am so glad we did it (safely) this year too! He’s the best birthday buddy ❤️

Saturday game night is brought to you by @talkboxm Saturday game night is brought to you by @talkboxmom ❤️ practicing how to say 배고파 (I’m hungry) and similar phrases in Korean. A year ago I never thought I’d be learning Korean, but that’s what Marvel wanted to learn 😹. 

Honestly it’s been a lot of fun and a good challenge for us as a family. We have really fallen in love with Korean (and Korean BBQ lol). 

I’m thinking next year of adding another language. Probably French since it’s one I already know a lot of! 

What language would you like to learn if you could? I really like using talkbox.mom because we use phrases we use at home already so we substitute them in. As such, I’m excited to announce too that we’re brand ambassadors for talkbox.mom! 🥳❤️🥰

Check out talkbox.mom (link in my bio, and hey it would be a good Christmas gift!). I’ve even got some discount codes for you. Use Jessica20 for $20 off a box+book bundle and Jessica5 for $5 off a phrasebook.

My husband and I dropped our ballots off yesterday My husband and I dropped our ballots off yesterday. Our state has done mail in voting for years now and it’s the best. I’m able to take my time and look up the candidates and measures in real time. It also gave us an opportunity to explain to Ms. Marvel why voting is important. (Also I love my shirt so much).
