(no subject)
Yesterday was kind of a fail. We usually try to do something as a family on Saturdays, but with Craig putting in all the overtime, it didn't happen. I went to my parents house in hopes of going to Hobby Lobby with my mom, but she was still laying sod so that didn't happen either. I knitted some, and then we came home. I may have written about this yesterday, but I can't remember.
Last night, I couldn't figure out dinner to save my life. I made a grilled cheese for Madasen and gave her some applesauce, but waited until Craig came home to even continue thinking about dinner for myself. I had planned on getting gf pizza from Mellow Mushroom, but then it turned into this massive ordeal. You have to order to a certain price point, and then there's a delivery charge and taxes. By the time it was all said and done, it turned into a bigger deal than I had wanted it to, so I bailed on the whole thing. Then I thought a corn dog sounded pretty good, but remembered (in the nick of time) that the last time I ate a hot dog it made me feel rotten for quite a while. So, after Craig got home at 10, I dilly dallied until after 11 and finally decided on Sonic. I hesitated because I typically don't feel very good after eating that either, but by the time I made my decision it was so late I didn't have many other options. Craig wanted french toast sticks too, so I got those and a burger for myself. We ate and then went to bed after the end of Cat in the Hat and the food.
I put Peter Pan on for Madasen last night for the first time. She was very concerned about Tinkerbell, and asked about her for most of the rest of the night. Then Cat in the Hat was on, and we watched that. She thought it was pretty funny too. She watched the whole thing, which I was pretty impressed with. Two movies in one night, plus the second wasn't a cartoon. I might try Alice on her today, except that she is still pretty sensitive and that movie is quite dark for her. We'll see. I wanted to play Cinderella for her, but after how she reacted to the kids leaving Nana behind in Peter Pan, and the state of Michael's teddy bear I thought it might be too much for her. She is very sensitive to emotions, feelings, and in particular animals.
I feel like last night took forever to get through. It was 85 in the room when we went to bed, and I woke up sweating from every part of my body so I had Craig turn the air on for a bit. I tossed and turned most of the night and that kept Ethan up, which kept me up. It's quite the cycle. lol This morning Craig got ready and has already left for work. Madasen and I have watched a Mickey Mouse and now Jungle Junction (a british cartoon that I really like too).
The only thing that didn't get done last night were the dishes, which I'll tackle after I finish this post, and I'm excited to check on my seedlings. I noticed considerable growth even since I watered them yesterday to when I checked on them last night. I'm going to knit for a bit because I'm almost done with the green, and I'll be able to start my new color today. I'd like to sew some diapers too, and I want to spend some time with Madasen. She's been overly affectionate and loving the last few days. She loves feeling Ethan kicking, and while I know she doesn't understand what all this means, I'm just loving back on her as much as I can.
Karen is coming back to Phoenix in May (the 2nd weekend I guess), which was when we were originally having my shower and now it looks like that can't happen (the shower). She's also got a flight booked for Oregon (for some photo shoots) in June - also the 2nd weekend. I'm a little upset about that one because I could have Ethan anywhere from that week forward, and I like having my sister around when I have a baby. I don't know why, other than my emotions are all jello, because ordinarily we don't get along very well. I think I was hoping she would stay in the hospital with me because Craig isn't going to this time (so he can be able to take care of Madasen). Ah well. It'll all work out. Always does.
I'm off. I want to do the following:
Dishes
Check the plants
Make my list for the week
Throw out the weeds that are bagged
Make the meal list for the next two weeks
Knit
Sew diapers
Tidy the living room
We'll see how it goes. :)
