A Day in the Life

I actually decided to document a day in my life before I knew it was a prompt for the May blogging challenge. All these pictures were taken on a Tuesday, which happened to be the last day of classes at ASU before finals. Micah was out of town, which is why he does not make an appearance. I feel like this is my “old normal.” I will be at home all summer and then the baby will arrive right after school starts in the fall. I will be teaching online, so I won’t have to go to campus on a regular basis like I do now. I know I will figure out my “new normal” once the baby arrives, but it’s fun to have these pictures to help me remember what life was like now…
*All photos were taken on my iPhone with no edits or filters.

  5. Goodness! I wish I had a life like yours! How many hours do you work in a day? My class is from 7:15-4:00. But I usually go home at 5:00 and sometimes 7:00 or even 9:00pm if there are important school events the next day. So I'm usually too tired to do anything else after work.
