As I sit on my applesauce covered couch surrounded by the
aftermath of RWW’s toy-nado (reference below), I am left with one conclusion - today
has not been a productive day.
I blame
it primarily on the 3am wakeup call provided by my sick, but still impossibly
happy 6 month old. Thank God for that
dimpled morning smile, otherwise I certainly wouldn't make it through days like
today. I was far too tired to brew
myself a pot of coffee. That’s usually T’s
morning responsibility. Alas, he is away,
leaving me sad and coffee-less in the mornings.
RWW’s diet is usually relatively wholesome
and well-balanced, but given the circumstances, goldfish and applesauce seemed
like a reasonable choice for breakfast.
We did manage to get it together enough to make our 9:30a run.
Upon arrival I discovered that we were
rolling with a bad flat. Thankfully, one of the other, more prepared mother runners
supplied a pump so we could make it through.
It was a lackluster run, and I was screamed at for a good ¾’s of the
way. I seriously considered stopping by the grocery
store on the way home, but who was I kidding?
A venti bold drip clearly won that battle. We
then proceeded home grocery-less and on an empty gas tank where, after a heated
battle about naptime, I wasted away that sweet, undisturbed hour and a half browsing
the web for a new diaper bag (??). Stupid.
We now return to the present, where I sit on
that ever soiled couch. How will this
day end? Will I turn it around, clean up
the house, start dinner, and maybe get some tactiles out to work on counting? Probably not.
Laying in the backyard, a little gardening, and some tee ball somehow
sounds far more appealing. Anyway, how could I say no to this?
Miss your face! Even days like these have their happy moments, and I'm so glad you're capturing them.... love you and I'll bring you coffee any time!
