Interrupted
My Life Thus Far
Nothing Scandalous Or Intriguing
****
I did NOT want to get out of bed this morning.
Unfortunately, I had no choice. I needed to be to work at
10am. The earliest I've had to work since I found out I
was pregnant. Not that 10am is all that early, but
compared to noon and 1pm, it is. I like those extra couple
hours to mill about the house or relax in bed. I'm glad
I've got the weekend off. Two days of sleeping in and not
having to get up until I'm ready. I know I'll relish it.
Annie didn't have school this morning, but since Jason and
I both had to work, she needed to be dropped off at
daycare. This was her first encounter with her peers since
her accident and I knew she was going to be a little self-
conscious. I wish there was something I could have done
for her. Like, keep her home with me. When we got there, I
filled her teachers in on her condition, asked them to
watch her, make sure she didn't rough-house too much and
to keep the other kids from getting too up close and
personal. Of course, they all converged on her to see her
injury, which caused the kids to do the same. I could see
the horror on her face and I was powerless to help her. To
add insult to injury, they were going swimming today, too
and Annie couldn't. She's on infection watch. Needless to
say, today was a rough day for her.
Work was good. We went through periods of steady business
interspersed between times of emptiness. We struggled to
make segments, but it just didn't happen. I think we made
one. I managed to reach my credit goal, so today was a
success for me. Snookie came and had lunch with me, which
was nice of him. He got off work early. After lunch the
afternoon went by really fast. I was grateful for this
because I'm feeling really tired today. All day I've felt
fatigued, which bums me out a little. I'm in my second
trimester. I should be feeling more energized!
Snookums absolutely had to have Mexican tonight. So, we
went to Los Cabos for dinner. It was good. Of course I'm
gassy now and he's going to pay for making me eat Mexican
food, but oh well. Annie was happy because the food was
soft and she had no problem eating it. Beans and rice with
tortillas. She cleaned her plate for the first time in
days.
When we got home, we put the girls to bed, then Snookums
and I played Scrabble online together. It started out as
one quick game and quickly turned into 6 or 7. That would
be why I'm writing so late even though I'm dead tired. We
don't usually do things like that together. It was fun.
Alright. That's all for today. Nothing scandalous or
intriguing happened. I know that makes for the best
entries, but I'm hoping for more uneventful days like
today :) Ciao and goodnight.
