I have a confession. I am in a major, major cooking rut. Huge. It’s…bad. We’ve been eating out a lot, and eating far, far too much pasta/annie’s mac/waffles/convenience food and spending a fortune between eating out and random trips to the grocery store.
I’m having a hard time thinking of things I want to cook and [...]
In a recent post, I mentioned that we’ve been dealing with more frustration and stress lately. Well, without going into too much detail, it all came to a head last week, and Brett was laid off from his job.
I’m not going to delve into the specifics, but it’s been kind of a long, drawn-out process [...]
I don’t have much new to report. We’re doing okay in these parts. Not great, but okay. There have been some majorly frustrating elements to life lately, but none of it’s really anything I feel able to or willing to share here. I will say that the past few weeks haven’t exactly lived up to [...]
Okay, this is going to make me sound crazy. You already know that I’m a little strange, so this shouldn’t come as too much of a shock, but in all actuality, I’m serious about this.
On Sunday night, Elanor was asleep and I was sitting next to her messing around online, reading different blogs, etc. It’s [...]
I’ve started writing about four different things tonight, and nothing is coming out right. So I’ll just keep it brief and boring and say that I still don’t feel great, although I think I’m feeling a little better right now. I went to the doctor this morning and he said it’s just a cold at [...]
I almost forgot to post. I am still feeling yucky. I am going to the doctor in the morning. Brett leaves for Amsterdam in the morning, too. Meh all around. I am going to bed now. Sorry for the lame post. I hope I’ll be feeling better by tomorrow to write a better post.
Yep, it’s official. I’m sick. Blahhhhhh. And even worse, it doesn’t feel respratory, it feels *whispering* downright flu-ish. NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
I felt not great but mediocre most of the day, like I might be fighting it off, until about 6 p.m., when it all just hit me. Ugh. And, of course, Brett’s home for tonight and tomorrow [...]
It appears that Elanor has a cold again. She’s asleep next to me right now and is sniffly and snorty and keeps waking herself up with her tossing and turning because she can’t breathe through her nose. Poor baby!
This is the second cold she’s had in the past, oh, three weeks. Ugh. And now my [...]
I’m tired these days. Between daylight saving time (and Elanor’s crappy sleep as a result), Brett working very long hours, me trying to fit my at-home work in around the rest of our lives (which means I’m usually doing it from 9 or 10 p.m. until midnight or even 1 a.m.), and Elanor having become [...]
Thanks for all the comments and suggestions on my last post. I have really been trying to take it easy and not overdo things, but it’s an ongoing challenge, so we’ll see how it continues. Thankfully a couple of friends are going to come over in the next few days just to help with getting [...]
