Every time I sit down to update this blog, I think about
what I could write about ME. What is going on in MY life?
And the truth is, right now there’s nothing. I don’t do
anything for me; I get up, I work, I go home. I’ve been watching Bones back
from the beginning – I was in a conversation with a friend about the some of
the characters who have died or left the show and how we miss them, and so now
I’m watching the series again. I thought about starting a new series (Alias,
Pretty Little Liars, Parenthood, ad nauseum)
but I just don’t have the brain power to dedicate to new shows. So now
that I’ve finished Gilmore Girls, it’s on to Bones. Again.
So right now my life is completely full of my kids.
Baseball is consuming – C took Spencer to practice last night and they didn’t
get home until after bedtime, but then he was hungry so he still didn’t get to
bed for 45 minutes. I stayed home with Henry but we had errands to get done and
video games to play. S lost a tooth last night and there was a moment where the
tooth fairy nearly forgot to show up again because she was stuffed up with a post-nasal
drip sore throat and had taken some Nyquil, but she got there. Thankfully.
Today is the day they are celebrating 101 days at school,
and they are supposed to wear a white shirt with black spots and black pants.
Last night while Spencer was at baseball I made him a very nice black spotted
shirt, but this morning he cried for a solid 45 minutes about wearing said
shirt. It was insane. I probably should have backed down but I was just so
irritated that I made him wear the darn shirt. It wasn’t pretty. I hope he
dealt with it.
Today is also kindergarten Round-up, so I’m taking Henry
to the elementary school. He’s also not going to be happy, but I figure with
his severe shyness and issues with change we need to go to anything related to
kindergarten at all so he can get used to the idea for the next six months.
So there you have it. Things are okay right now. Not over
the moon, but not down and out either. I’m getting there. I just need to find
something of my own and I’ll be set.

I totally feel you on this. I hate how any time I try to carve out some me time it comes at such a price. I give in to one area, have to take away from another. Currently J and I are basically leading separate lives so we can each get a "me night" 1-2 nights a week (his in the form of gaming, mine are for yoga, massages, or hanging out with book club ladies).
