Monthly Musings February 2026: Ways We Make Our Weeks Easier

 

Besties, I am really looking forward to the topics for February Monthly Musings. The topic for February is How We Make Our Weeks Easier. No matter what stage of life you are in, I think we all can contribute and learn from this topic. While I am the host for this link-up party, I will definetly be taking notes on the tips that the other writers share.

1. Paper planner, digital calendar or other option?

My answer is all of the above, but they are synched. Running Daddy and I use the Cozi app for our shared family calendar. I use Outlook for work. I have a paper planner that I use to schedule my day from morning to night and also keep my to-do list. The paper planner just helps me schedule my time well and is just really for me. 

It might sound a little crazy but it all works for me.

Wednesday Hodgepodge: Wednesday, February 25, 2026

 

The month of February is flying by. We had a little bit of snow and cold the first part of the week, but nothing like what our friends to the north received. Hope everyone is ok and staying warm in the northeast. Jumping into again today to join Joyce for Wednesday Hodgepodge. 

1. America celebrates turning 250 years old this year. Primary cities set to lead the celebrations on July 4th are Boston, Philadelphia, New York, and Washington D.C. Other significant locations for celebrating will be Charleston SC and the 'historic triangle' which includes Jamestown-Willimasburg-Yorktown Virginia. 

Of the cities listed how many have you seen in person? Of the cities listed which would you most like to visit this year? Any plans to do so? What's one place in America you think everyone should see? If you're not American what's one place in the US you'd like to see? 

I am from Boston and currently live and work in the Washington, DC area. I have been to every city listed above also.

Wednesday Hodgepodge: February 9, 2026

 

I think the snow and ice may actually start melting over the next few days. Can I get a hallelujah Besties? Things have been challenging with the snow and ice around here and also with the devastating ice storms where Hockey Guy goes to school. What has been a bright spot over the last few weeks is Wednesday Hodgepodge hosted by Joyce. It's been so fun that I am joining up again this week. I am so ready for this linkup!

1. What's something recent that had you 'tickled pink'? 

This is a small thing, but I flipped through the channels this weekend and How to Marry a Millionaire was on. I would say that I was tickled pink to find it this weekend and then added it to our movie list becuase Running Daddy has never seen it.
