Yes, I'm well aware that today is not Tuesday but in fact Wednesday. But that still doesn't change the fact that I really dislike Tuesdays. I totally dread that day. Weekends for us are Sundays and Mondays, and come Tuesday I know that Brett has to go back to work and it's another looooong week. Both the Munchkin and I were sad to watch Brett leave yesterday morning - the Munchkin is majorly craving Daddy time and I'm hardcore craving some solo "me time". Le sigh.
My to-do list is quite long today since yesterday was a bit of a write-off. So today's blog will be a bit random. I haven't done this in a while!
- yesterday was a bad day. The grey, dreary, rainy day really reflected how I felt. I was feeling pretty down and out, and if it weren't for the Munchkin I would've stayed in bed all day.
- I wasn't the only one having a bad day yesterday, the Munchkin was feeling physically rough. After a weekend of being outside almost the entire time, the Munchkin's mild sun allergy has left him really sore all over.
- yesterday I really missed living in Vancouver. The city itself, my friends...and I wonder if Victoria will ever feel like home to me. Even after living here for almost 5 years, I still don't feel like I belong here and long for Vancouver. I guess I'll have to make a trip over to the mainland pretty darn soon.
- the idea of moving closer to family is becoming more and more appealing to me. The thought of having help (and somewhat of a life outside of the home!) is surprisingly enough to put the thought of moving back to my small hometown into our heads...which I thought I would never do.
- I'm pretty intrigued by the fact that the Kootenays have their own roller derby league!
- I love the Munchkin more than life itself, but I'm so mentally and physically exhausted that I'm starting to feel guilty that lately I've been counting down the hours of when the Munchkin goes to bed. Not that it matters since lately I've been going to bed before 10pm anyways. My energy has been zapped out of me after spending the day trying to keep on top of life and the Munchkin.
- I was invited to participate in a Mother's Day craft fair by the lovely ladies of The Midwives Collective, but sadly I just don't have the time to sew up enough stock and I don't have child care for that day. All of this saddens me and makes me want to scream out "FML!".
- a few people (who are single and childless) think this is a situation that could be easily remedied by putting up a Craigslist ad for a babysitter. They're kidding, right?? Yeah...like I would trust a random stranger with my child. In my home. Craigslist. Let's not go there.
