Sleep. I’m wishing I was getting more of it. Today was an insane day where I was going from 7:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. with a short break in between my (crappy) endocrinologist appointment and my mani/pedi. (I know… I live a tough life. I’ll be making up for it by having to call Social Security tomorrow and find out how the duck they managed to screw up Daniel’s SSI this time.) It was hard this morning because my tabby really wanted to have Mama time but I wasn’t able to go back to sleep with him on top of me purring. #tabbyproblems On the plus side, I got to see my evil twin and my sister-in-law before they move to Washington. I’ll be seeing them again this weekend to bring them dinner and return their coolers. (They brought over all the beer and frozen food they weren’t going to be able to take with them.)
Let’s Pretend This Never Happened by Jenny Lawson. Like almost everything The Bloggess says, this is MAJORLY NSFW but incredibly funny.
My mother-in-law. My very wonderful mother-in-law took over Daniel care for me this weekend so I could get a break and get some rest. This is a woman who is taking care of her terminally ill husband and getting even less sleep than me so it was amazingly sacrificial of her to do this. She also got me FOUR boxes of Trader Joe’s Coffee Latté and Cream Bars.
$tarbux Fruit and Cheese Bistro Boxes. Seriously, this is like the best bistro box made by $tarbux. (OK… it’s the only one I can eat for allergy purposes or because lettuce is rabbit food.) If I pair it with a venti ice water, it even works to fill me up without doing bad things to my blood sugar.
The creativity of some of the people at Metanoia. We have a couple women (Gladys and Hortense) who are creative in a completely amazing and scary way. Last summer, they built a fountain with its own water source in the church parking lot. They transform the office/classroom wing into a Haunted Hallway for Halloween and transform our fellowship hall into a five-star restaurant. As a fundraiser for the congregation, they created a 50’s diner in our fellowship hall… complete with booths, checkered flooring, costumes for the wait staff, and actual records hanging as decorations. Duuuuuuuude…
Go love up Hallie and the others.
