It feels like forever since I've posted anything meaningful in here, and I guess it has. I'm not sure why - not sure if I'm just feeling too bleah to bother, or not feeling like sharing, or at least like not sharing the important stuff, and it's pointless to share the non-important stuff... I don't know.
There's been lots of stuff going on...
Hannah's birthday; my birthday coming up; I've gotten the dates set for my stitching retreat that I'm all excited about; I'm nearly finished on one stitching project and making good headway on the next one (something about being home and stitching almost every night makes these projects go so much faster, funny, eh?). All kinds of things, I just haven't thought worthy of posting.
Work's been insane. I'll write more about that in a locked post, I think...
Wiley was very nice to me for mother's day... He got up both days this weekend with little miss pain-in-the-butt when she decided that screaming at 6 am was a great way to wake us up. And both times when she got up last night (at 2 and 4, oh joy). We got a whole lot of yard work done on Saturday (anyone have plant suggestions for a low border planting at the front edge of the yard?), and then he grilled me some delicious steaks on Saturday night. Last night we just ordered in. Mmmmm, chinese food. We didn't go to the Zakim bridge walk, because it was due to rain, and it turns out it was a crazy mob scene anyway, of which I'm not a big fan. Aaaaah, the irony of living in a city with lots of people - all kinds of cool things (free concerts, good shows, good museums, fun holiday celebrations, etc. ad infinitum) that all draw SO MANY PEOPLE they become unenjoyable and not worth the trouble of trying to attend.
Hannah tried her first peanut butter and jelly sammich this weekend, and she seemed to really enjoy it. She also got her first pair of shoes that we're going to make her wear regularly. She wasn't a big fan of them yesterday, but by today she seemed pretty resigned to them as normal, and was mostly ignoring them. Still no walking yet, but she's definitely getting better everyday at standing on her own. She's definitely at the point now where she can stand on her feet and do whatever she wants, and not lose her balance.
Today is so grey and rainy that I have no energy, no motivation. All I want to do is curl up in bed. My stupid trick for today? Giving the chickie at Dunkin's a $20 for my $2 coffee (my only money until payday, really) and driving away without getting my change. And not realizing it until I got to work. Can't exactly go back and ask for it now, can I? *sigh* Well, at least I made her day, right?
