Today
Gwen woke me up really early and I felt crappy today, so I sent her to daycare even though it's my day off. I had big plans to do something either fun or productive. Maybe both. Instead I seem to have mostly sat around feeling sorry for my country and my world. Ugh. -
Daycare
Even though Gwen has been wearing underpants exclusively during the day when with Josh and I since Memorial Day, and most of the time for quite a while before that, she has still been wearing cloth diapers at daycare. There was no potty in the daycare room back in May/June, and even when she moved to the room that did have potties, we didn't want ( Read more... ) -

Except she has been really resistant to being in the baby carrier today, and that's pretty much the only way that works for me to get her to fall asleep ( Read more... ) -
Weekend
This weekend is off to a good start:
- I've now lost 50 lbs since Gwen was born (all the pregnancy weight and a most of the traveling consultant weight). Yay!
- It was "bag day" at the Assistance League Thrift Store (as much as you can fit in a paper grocery bag for $5, and they have good stuff too). Timely.
- I made Dutch Babies for breakfast, and ( Read more... ) -
