Day 290: New Year’s Eve
The year 2020 has finally drawn to a close. On New Year's Eve, Erin and I both had a few errands and odds and ends to wrap up, and the kids played pretty nicely for most of the day. I went out and got a few groceries to make a yummy meal of scallops and risotto, and...
Day 289: Ps and Q in Review: Quarantine
Concluding my little three-part Ps and Q in Review 2020 wrap-up, today I'm going to talk about the element that ties it all together: quarantine.And by "quarantine," of course, I don't mean it in its strictest terms, though there were times along the way where we have...

Day 284: When Christmas Comes Around, You Must Wrap It
Christmas finally arrived...bright AND early. The kids were up at the crack of 6am, excited and ready to tackle the present-opening. Of course, like all parents, we HOPE they'll sleep later, but come on. We all remember that feeling. So we had coffee downstairs ready...
Day 283: Waiting for Santa
Full disclosure...I spent about a half an hour writing a breezy little blog post about Christmas Eve just now, was in the process of uploading the photos to finish it, and boom. Some wacky shenanigans and my entire post was lost.I do this in Wordpress, which for some...
Day 282: Christmas Eve-Eve
Wednesday was the eve of Christmas Eve, which in pre-pandemic days was a big day for the Colorado Schneider's. We started a tradition of throwing a Christmas Eve-Eve party every year, where we'd invite friends and family, make and eat tons of food, and generally...

Tuesday was the first day of our family holiday break. Everyone's school, work and therapy commitments were on pause, and we were on our own time for a little while. So the morning was delightfully lazy.My toe injury from the previous day was on the mend, and I was...
