Things

I didn’t want to do a bullet list this close to trying to restart blogging, but there are a few things I wanted to say that didn’t have a place and I didn’t have a want for expounding.

* I stopped hormonal birth control. I didn’t actually know what it was doing to my body since I’ve been on it for so long, but I experimented and holy heck, I’m washing my hands of that whole debacle. No more added hormones for me, thankyouverymuch. I have jokes but I obviously don’t know my audience so I’ll keep those to myself.

* H has some sort of minor infection his body seems to be fighting. He has an array of symptoms and one includes a low grade fever. I’m inclined to not treat such a fever, but he also has had a headache so I’ve been treating that which then treats the fever and can your body fight off an infection without that fever? I don’t know if it’s sinus or ear, but it’s not bad enough to seek a doctor and he seems to be doing it okay on his own, but sometimes I feel that my kids’ overall lack of sickness makes me feel completely inadequate when I do have to deal with something. I just don’t know!

* Spring baseball is officially over here. It was an amazing season for Spencer – he’s grown so much. And man, he loves baseball.

* Crap, I just realized I missed breakfast and the café downstairs doesn’t serve anymore.

* It’s currently gnat season and how does one get through this without wanting to set fire to one’s home?

* I’m still mainlining Buffy and gosh, I love that show.

* How does one get through the day without a paper calendar? I just can’t live without one. I have a wall calendar and Outlook for work, and I technically have a Google calendar but that’s just not working out at all. But my paper one I can stick to – a month in view to add all the things and then a weekly to be more specific, meal plan to and any to-do lists. I then stick a post-it on the day with any grocery/store lists needed.

* My month of May is lightyears better than the last two, and I'm hoping that I can breathe. I'm also hoping I don't bog myself down with too much because of the lack of other obligations.

* I have three to-do lists today so I'm not doing to well at that yet, huh? Hold me.
