Noah may get to wear the onesies you sent as soon as today or tomorrow. I'll be sure to take a picture.
Cool!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

But it's sad that you want to end it, because you seemed pretty keen at the start.
It's not a her thing. It's just the fact of me not being good in long distance relationships. Last week, in spite of being in my car for 90 minutes before the appointment, when 7:00 PM rolled around, I was still east of the 405. Calabasas is just too far from home.
Except she moved my appointment back an hour and that might make it okay. K made me promise to continue to go see her until the twins are home and settled, though.

Everybody should be healthy, or at least healthier. So get on it, OK?
Jessica! I think the last time I've posted with you was way before you moved. How is the new place?
clearance to go back to work next week (don't wanna go)
When does the semester end?

Hi Nilly! Hi everybody!
Why oh why is it that sucky and stressy evenings inevitably lead to a bad night's sleep and backaches? grrrrrrrrr. If I were my daughter, I'd weep and scrunch up my face and tell my mother, "to-DAY I wake up GRUMPY!" But since I'm the mother, I have to repress that urge, be nice, and just keep the grump to myself.

Nilly, it ends June 30 which will be 7 weeks away from the time I go back to work. UGH.

Burrell!
to-DAY I wake up GRUMPY!
Well, you get to tell it to us, right? I hope your day improves.

Wow, that's a lot. It's like when the school-year ends here (and usually yours ends earlier, IIRC). Sorry.

Hi Kat! I'm sorry K is sick. I hope she gets better soon so she can go see the babies again. And I hope you stay well for the same reason.
Be careful about dieting while making milk, please (sorry if I sound naggy), you want to get enough calories to keep the milk coming. Of course, that said, I may be making a radical change to my diet soon and "cleanse" my system, but I fear I'm too weak-willed to keep it up for 3 weeks.

Enh, it's okay. In reality, I'm really preoccupied so I am hoping it will go quickly. I lost all of April, it seems, so maybe May and June will speed forward in a similar way.
Other realization: while I LOVE having a laptop, I still prefer to use my desktop when at home. Now that it too is wireless, I am so happy.

Burrell, I know about the enough calories thing. What I've really done is cut out the dairy and the wheat which, I am told, are colicky inducing and make breastmilk difficult to digest on delicate systems. Which means I have nothing to eat except protein and salads, which is how I lost all that weight last year.

Well, it seems like you'll be plenty busy, and that helps in the where-did-the-time-go department, right?
protein and salads
Aren't some vegetables problematic in a similar way, as well? Or is that very different from baby to baby?
Um, I'm not sure if this question is too personal, so feel free to ignore (and of course, I apologize in advance) - Will you have where and when to pump when you're back to work?
