Is there a verb tense that both expresses something that was and also will continue to be?

This week has been/will continue to be tough.

We spent the long weekend up north and I focused on collecting happy images to hang onto starting next week. Here’s what I have so far:

1. Lavender ice cream.
   
   
2. The excitement of discovering a baby snapping turtle out in the yard.
   
   
3. A sweet baby napping in his stroller, wind blowing his hair, while his brothers animatedly play Godzilla and King Ghidorah on the playground.
   
   
4. Visiting our 93-year-old neighbors and having them dote on C.
   
   
5. O asking if someone wants to “sit and watch the water” with him. Dave obliging.
   
   
6. Telling knock knock jokes the entire walk home from dinner. Laughing harder as they devolve into nonsense: “knock knock.” “who’s there?” “rotten banana!” “rotten banana who?” “rotten banana teleporting into your stomach so you ate a rotten banana!!”
   
   
7. An afternoon spent with friends at the beach, reconnecting with kids who we’ve known since they were in the Infant room with J at daycare almost 7 years ago.
   
   
8. The older 3 boys’ first night together in their new bunks… deemed a success going down to sleep until Dave and I realized A had sneaked downstairs, taken a bag of pretzels and three bowls back up, and poured snacks for J and O while J read them Elephant and Piggie by the light of their reading lamp.
   
   
9. The cleansing nature of frigid lake water.
   
   
10. Another night with all of my children sleeping safely in their beds.
