I think the cold and the ickiness are both a decent bit better today. I'm working on a balance between eating constantly so I don't feel bad, and not stuffing myself so much that I feel bad. :)
Although I am told that there were snow flurries this morning, it is still springlike out. So yay! I got a bit more of our new front garden bed dug. I'm doing it in tiny bits as the mood strikes me. I think it will look nice - and eventually it will be done and I'll be able to plant stuff! I keep forgetting to order some more coir, hmmm...
Today SAM was telling DAT, "I want to have a gun fight! Whoever can shoot Mama the fastest..." Silly boy. I find it amusing that hoshiadam was somewhat inclined never to buy toy guns for him... but the house is so full of Nerf guns he'll never need to. *rolls eyes*
A couple of weeks ago I won a diaper on hyenacart.com. :) It's a pocket diaper, not my favorite kind, but hey, free for shipping. And today I got a lot of 3T and baby clothes off diaperswappers.com, free for shipping also. They include a sleep sack, woot, I love those. I think I need to go get SAM's old baby clothes out of the condo closet and go through them, I'm getting antsy. And hey, only seven more months, I might totally run out of time. Heh. :)

It would be pretty awesome to be able to draw or play music.
