Finn's eyes. Those sweet blue eyes ( Read more... )

Re-reading my last post I see that I mentioned feeling fatigued all over. Well, about 24 hours later I came down with a fever, and realized I had a breast infection. It wasn't a good weekend for it seeing as Mary and Warren had gone down to San Diego for the weekend.

My wrist is so much better today ( Read more... )

I have pain in my right wrist. I've had pain in my right wrist since I was about 4 months pregnant. It's just been a different sort of pain at different times. This pain is the most different yet. I woke up in the middle of the night with it hurting. It's lower on my wrist, higher on my arm, and feels a bit more like I was hit. I think it's swollen ( Read more... )

If I am invited to join in something as special as a ( Read more... )

The photo of me in the fountain with Finn made me think of my metaphor of parenting, and reminded me of a story Neil told me about his metaphor for parenting. Neil replied with an invitation to a party in Burbank tonight. It sounds like fun, for as much of it Finn and I can stay. It's ( Read more... )

As I lay in bed this morning with NPR in the background, in my half-awake state, I heard a quick story about California running out of money, and issuing IOUs to State Agents as early as next week ( Read more... )

Finn was due for a nap when I picked him up from childcare. That was a pity because I was rushing to get him to his swim lesson. He wasn't in a fowl mood or anything, but he was clearly tired ( Read more... )
