Interrupted
My Life Thus Far
Trying To Infiltrate
I didn't get the best night's sleep last night. Keenan woke up around 1am and came and got in bed with Snookums and I. Both of us were too tired to traipse him back downstairs and put him back to bed (huge mistake, I'm sure), so we let him sleep with us, which meant I got kicked and crowded the better part of the night. Despite sleeping crappily, I still managed to get myself up and out the door on time. Today was Keenan's first day of his new therapy schedule. It won't be his schedule for very long since he'll be three soon and leaving Holly Ridge, but it's an improvement over his old therapy schedule and worth the effort of switching.
I didn't get the best workout in. I was very distracted this morning and couldn't really concentrate. I got in a good 20-30 minutes of weights before I threw in the towel and headed for the sauna. Hopefully tomorrow is better for me. I'm not sure why, but I felt very anxious. It was odd, because I can't think of any reason why I would feel that way. My old demons are always trying to infiltrate and ruin my happy life. Damn them!
Circle time during therapy was the moment when my day turned around. The third Tuesday of each month is Parent Group at Holly Ridge (which I refuse to go to because it's basically a brag-session for the self-righteous parents and I don't care to hear what they have to say) and on that day parents come into class for snack and circle time. We were sitting on little carpet squares, listening to stories and singing songs. Keenan was just so engaged and enjoying the moment so much, it made me think about my own happiness. I need to embrace life and live for the moment I'm in, instead of anticipating the future and worrying about things I have absolutely no control over. Thank you for that little life lesson, my sweet baby Keenan :)
I worked at VS tonight. It was a short shift (4-8pm) and it was deathly slow. So, we did a little processing and a couple projects. It made time fly like crazy. I replaced the plexiglass risers on the VS Attractions table and processed a box of PINK panties and a box of mixed push-ups (that had a dozen dressy panties tossed in there, too). Half way through straightening the PINK panty bar I realized it was past 8pm! It's nights like tonight that keep me at VS... and helping people. I did that a couple times tonight, too :)
My eyelids might as well be sandbags, they're so heavy. Sleep would be awesome right about now...
