You might remember a couple of weeks ago, I got a bit rattled and couldn’t piece together my own thoughts or feelings. I didn’t feel like myself, and more than just feeling a bit off. I wasn’t being dramatic. I felt very outside my mind, and it was pretty unsettling. My lovely Cher took it upon herself in that span of time to send me away for a bubble bath in the middle of the morning. While Solly was at preschool that day, she hung out with Waverly and I had a soak. It was SO nice.
Today, she decided again to offer me an hour for myself. I took her up on it, and started running a tub once Solly was dropped off. And if you’re from where I’m from, you already know that out of nowhere, the power kicked off!
It was weird. I stopped the bath and checked on Cher and Waverly. Cher had some important stuff to work on for school, and she needed the internet. That, and her laptop was almost dead. It was far from ideal, but within ten minutes or so, the power was back on! Woot! No panic necessary after all!
Thanks to the power coming back, I was able to get into my bath and watch an episode of Unsolved Mysteries that I’ve been wanting to watch for a good while now! This particular episode is all in french, and its a lot harder to read subtitles when you’re multitasking. And today, in my time to just rest and zone, I could! It was SO nice!
I got out just in time to go pick Solly up! Then the kids lunched and napped, and I made egg salad wraps. If you didn’t know, crunchy onions are SO good on egg salad!
This afternoon holds nothing but productivity for my family! I have countless things to accomplish, as you’ll know already if you read yesterday’s blog. And yet more piles on! One of these days I need to actually leave my house and go for a walk or something.
A walk. To deliver Christmas cards. Or gifts. Or everything else that I have to do…
