All this and coffee too? November 15, 2006

Posted by spacemom in : Life...otherwise, She Blinded me with Science, I dream of sleep , trackback

Oh Lord, I am tired.

Last night, I spent 3-4:30 am curled up in a crib (with one side off, so really a toddler daybed) with Luna. She must have had too many cookies at daycare, because she was sleeping as stiff as a board until she would fart and then curl up. Then slowly she would go stiff again, fart and repeat. Poor kiddo. Daycare had a Thanksgiving event yesterday. I read about it Sunday night. Monday: we get some sweet potatoes from the store and boil them, whip up with some butter and brown sugar and yummy! Whipped sweet potatoes.

Our work computers are almost recovered. We will have the hideous task of dealing with the mess when they recover our last disk, but that’s tomorrow. I can wait until then!

Life has been fast and furious lately. I don’t understand it. We’ve been swamped with life. First, my parents’ visit. That was fun and frustrating at the same time. I love my parents, but there is some good to the fact that they live in North Carolina and we live in Massachusetts. Next week, my in-laws visit. We are not sure for how long or anything on that order, but hey, we’ll try it!

The girls are so glad to have us home. The virus that swept through our house was nasty. That part is clear. Also, Jay and I avoided it. Whew. Luna was very clingy to me on Friday and that was okay. She is normally a "daddy" girl, but during this trip away, she wanted mommy. She even got Jay on the phone one day and said "Hi Daddy, I want to talk to my mommy". Ah, to be loved! We had 3 days of sleep, but the past two nights have been terrible. I have a honking bruise on my left leg where I walked into the corner of the bed last night when I was carrying Soleil back to her bed. I suppose "Son of a Bitch!" is not appropriate language for my girls to hear. Why yes, Luna was in our room when I said that!

I have several posts stuck in my head….

What do you want to hear?

1) The girls and why I worry about school days.
2) School shootings and protecting our children.
3) Why spanking is not allowed in our house
4) If  I won the lottery, what would I do?
5) the housing crunch in the Boston Metro area.

I have some code to design… Gotta run!

I vote why you worry about school days.

(Please tell me your darling 4 year old has stopped obsessing about weight. I too am very careful around my girls. I cringe when someone invariably says something about her physical body at preschool or dance class or whatever.)
