Last night, Gabe got verrrrry emotional just before bed. He was cranky with Sam for reading when he wanted to be playing with him, and then when I tried to put him to bed, he got angry and agitated over that (in part because he had coughed his way through his naptime, making him [...]

You know, it’s such a pleasure to see your child reading. That’s not a surprise, is it? From the moment they’re able to toddle over to you with a book, there’s something so incredibly warm and fuzzy about seeing your son or daughter take pleasure in the written word, especially if you’re a [...]

So glad to have Eric home, finally. Even when he’s at work, unreachable and in meetings, just knowing that he’s here in the same town with us, only a mile away, takes a ton of weight off my shoulders and makes me feel whole again.
On the other hand, it feels weird today [...]

Okay, figured out now. I’ll be using this training schedule, with some slight adaptations, for the 50K in July. It accommodates the Mount Pleasant Half, Green Bay, and Lighthouse pretty well, which saves me some headaches. My only reservation is the initial brevity of the midweek runs and the early weekly mileage [...]

Eric called this morning at 5:30 AM by accidental time zone miscalculation. I don’t mind; it was wonderful to wake up with him in my ear. But then I spent the rest of the morning feeling more bereft than usual. MOPS this morning discussed friendships, which first had me missing Alysia, and [...]

Huh. Maybe I am that lucky. Sam didn’t throw up last night, and he continues to feel healthy. I, on the other hand, spent a good portion of this afternoon lying on my stomach in an effort to quell spasms (they thankfully dissipated as mysteriously as they came), and Gabe just came [...]

Prepare for TMI.
So, on Thursday night, I found myself violently ill. In a useless surge of optimism, I convinced myself it was food poisoning. You see, if it was something I ate, then I alone was likely to be affected, as everybody else in the family seemed just fine. The [...]

We went back to the dentist today. Sam cooperated. Gabe…did no handstands, I’ll give him that. Sadly, that’s the only credit he can get for the visit, aside from not actually screaming in the dentist’s face that he hated him or wished him violence. It did end in the hygienist and [...]

Workin’ on somethin’. It’s a little consuming, but it’s almost done, at which point, I’ll be happy to share with the class. At the moment, though, I’ve got to wrap that up, do a quick look-over Sam’s homework with him (which appears to be mostly stuff due next week, thank goodness), [...]

Valentine’s Day was awesome.
Eric did himself proud! I was in culinary heaven from beginning to end. Now I’m all sad, because he’s away for the week for work; after this, we’ll have him home for one week, and then he’ll go away again for yet another week. It’s easier to [...]
