Tuesday Rambles
I'm starting to feel overwhelmed with everything, as I often do this time of year. Coming off the post-Christmas high, followed by New Years events (which this year, was being SICK, ugh), and then the haze of birthdays-- Garett's party is always stressful for me, since I really just want to hunker down and hibernate for the rest of winter after Christmas , LOL. I feel like I am losing control, that there are too many lists and I can't keep anything straight in my head OR on paper--and when my precious lists stop making sense, I'm a goner.
Anyways, that being said, yesterday was a nice day :)
Keira had her usual great day at daycare, Tyler picked her up, so I got to go home and open all my packages that arrived (all my things I need for our trip still--my dresses and jewelry and hygiene stuff, etc). So I made my list of evening outfits to pack, and at least that part of my world is feeling squared away.
We started dinner--we were making whistle dogs, salad, and I made some of my boursin/sautéed mushroom and onion crostinis with some French bread we needed to use up. Such a random supper, but those have been our favourites lately lol.
Around 4:50, I left to go get Garett. He stayed late yesterday because their afterschool program had "Radical Science" there to do experiments with the kids. He had SO much fun (the boy LOVES math and science--he is going to change the world, mark my words). When I got there, they were just finishing up their slime and putting it into their cups to bring home. As soon as he got home, he played with it more until suppertime. We ate and watched "coco" and then it was into the bath for them, and I laid out everyones clothes and PJ's and it was off to bed. They were both in bed around 7. Tyler and I were both planning on taking baths, but we were too tired, so we settled on showers. We watched one episode of Parenthood and we were in bed around 9.
Keira woke around 4:30 for a second, and I had a heck of a time getting back to sleep, but we all slept until about 6:20. Then it was the usual mad dash. Feed Garett breakfast, get keira dressed, put Garett's lunch in his backpack, check the calendar for the day, get ready and head out the door by 7.
Tonight, Tyler is picking up both kids, and I am going straight home to change quickly and head to Panera Bread with Sarah and Kim. Sarah is getting ready to go to Martinique for 4 weeks with her boyfriend, so we wanted to get together before she headed out, since I didn't get to see them over Christmas/New Years. Everytime we get together, we said "ONCE A MONTH" and then its like 3-4 months next time we get around to getting together. Life!
Happy Tuesday, everyone!
