Random Thoughts

We are back and almost rested…I say almost because my darling 11-month-old son STILL doesn’t sleep through the night. I know you are all tired of hearing that old song and dance so moving on…

I have a big update to give from our trip, the highlights, pictures…We had an amazing time and I still can’t believe we were fortunate enough to be able to see all that we did.

I say Random thoughts because I have been having a lot of those lately. I find myself at times narrating my life (kind of like Carrie from Sex and the City) It is bizarre. And kind of funny too. I’ll just burst out laughing at myself. Does anyone else do that? Probably not.

Just a moment ago I laid Aidan down for his nap and I reached up to tuck a piece of hair behind my left ear and I felt crust. WTH is that? I wondered. I reach down along the back of my jaw line, more crust. I go look in the mirror and I see that it is oatmeal. Uh..you say, so you had oatmeal for breakfast with Aidan…yep…YESTERDAY. How in the holy Hell have I been running around for 24 hours with oatmeal stuck to my ear? I do shower, I even put eye make-up the last two days (which I might say that JR noticed and commented, I haven’t seen you in makeup in…I can’t remember the last time) And I just start laughing, I mean laughing so hard that I am crying…and then I wake the baby up. The oatmeal is still there as I type this; perhaps I will be able to take more than a 2-minute shower today. God help me.

It is times like these that I am amazed that this is my life. You all know me; I am put together and actually like to wear eye makeup. I love every moment of it and I love to see how much I have changed as well as my day-to-day life.

So you know how I was telling you all the witty things that I say in my head? Can’t think of one right now. Damn.

Oh and also I want to tell my friend D that I swear to God if she doesn’t email me very soon I am coming to Portland to hunt her down. I am serious!
