Though I'm still feeling a bit heavy today, and generally tired from my head to my toes, I'm trying to find small moments of excitement and adventure throughout my day. This morning the kids were feeling antsy so we hauled out the ol' slide (large wooden plank) and one thing led to another, as they often do, which resulted in a makeshift cushion tunnel, and ultimately a scarf-carwash situation. The kids took turns sliding through the hanging scarves, squealing and giggling, and burning some energy trapped inside due to the crazy unreasonable weather outside.
My plant babies are also stuck inside with me today, since the wind is threatening and aggressive, though the sun has only now started to peek through the clouds. They sit anxiously on the windowsill, soaking in what they can, as I promise them that I'll find a way to be cheerful today, so the weather will improve. One pumpkin seedling is showing promise again, so I've got my fingers crossed on that front.
For now, I continue to wait patiently for my husband to volunteer to help me with my quilt (as he's the real measuring/cutting master around here, and I've asked for his help a number of times now, though I understand that life is busy and something as silly as a quilt can be deprioritized quite a lot. It really is okay, though. Truly.) My tea is fully steeped, and three remaining squares of a Caramilk bar beckon from my bedroom, where a bit of Netflix will almost surely do the trick on this indecisive and undeservingly emotional day.
