This has been one of those weeks. It's been rough. Without going into boring details, let's just say it has to do with more than one person being sick with a cold that's heading into the seventh week, chronic pain and fatigue. And shoveling. Too much shoveling of snow, which of course contributed to at least one of the above mentioned details I'm not mentioning.
Ayanna knows how I feel.
Oh yes she does. She commiserates. It's very helpful actually to have such an empathetic cat.
"Only the floor understands me." Oh. That's not what I meant, Ayanna.
Today is a day of taking it easy. (Hah! Somebody tell my four year old what that means. Please.)
I don't know what we'll do with the day: the temperature is rapidly dropping from just around freezing and will hit -17 by this afternoon. (Also contributes to what I didn't mention above.) It's a lot of fun.
In the meantime, I guess there'll be some game playing, some tv or movie watching, a trip to the library for story time, and the ever-present Ninja Eyes will be made from time to time with berry-stained hands. (Please don't ask about the hair-clip.)
It's all about the planning.

You go to story time when it's 17 below?? Wow!
ReplyDeleteSorry about the shoveling and the cold. Yuck. Kids never let you just curl up in bed all day do they? Sounds like a nice idea though.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the ninja eyes and the hair clip!!! I hope you all feel better soon! I wish I could send some warmth up there! I would! I'd package it and mail it tomorrow :)
ReplyDeleteOnly my coffee cup understands me at the moment.
ReplyDeleteNever noticed the hair clip until you mentioned it!
ReplyDelete17 below? I'd be huddled up in the fetal position on my floor, too.
Hope you're feeling better soon, Koreen! No moss on that kid...he's keeping the hair out of his Ninja eyes!
