Thank God It’s Friday

I’m tired. It’s been a long day. Rainey’s been fine, but today has been one of those days when he fights a nap. It makes me tired just thinking about it. He would only sleep on my lap, which, while kind of nice, made it hard to do much.

So what HAVE I been able to do? Well, I made my little gift to the Jimmy Fund. I imagine they’ll be hard-pressed to make their 5 million dollar goal for this year’s telethon. I started Rainer’s Christmas stocking. I’m using the same kind of yarn I used for Ezra’s stocking–probably 10 years ago. I’m listening to The Kinks. One of my many ideas for calming Rainey (this is after exhausting all of the usual techniques) was to put on a CD he’s never heard before. I’m not sure the CD helped at all, but I’m enjoying it.

I’m also waiting on pizza and salad delivery. Ah… it’s here. Excuse me.

That was good.

The Sox are playing the Blue Jays in the rain. Tomorrow I am getting my eyebrows waxed. I’m excited. I still feel pretty dumpy since having Rainey, and this is one of my first steps toward feeling a bit more myself again physically. I’m also hoping to go to the gym this weekend for the first time in an embarrassingly long time.

I love the weekend now even more than I did before.

    Hi sistafriend. Sorry that Rainey was being a pain in the rear. A cute pain, but a pain :) If I was there, I’d have taken him off your hands :) Glad to hear that you got out to have some beautifying…Momma needs to take care of herself too!

    Aw… I know you would have helped. Rainey has been sweet all weekend. This afternoon we read books and danced to the Beatles.

    Unfortunately, I had some kind of reaction to the eyebrow waxing!–which has never happened before. It’s not too bad, but annoying. Hopefully the haircut I have scheduled for the 6th will be a bigger success.
