MUTUAL! Oh lisah, The Office is super-sized, tonight. Make sure you're set up to record it at the right times.

Okay, my list

PROS

• Got rid of old car
• Got old air conditioner from mother
• New Office Thursday
• New episode of The Office on New Office Thursday is supersized
• Promos for new episode of The Office are driving me B-A-N-A-N-A-S!!!

CONS

• New(ish) car is at dealership for weird freak out it had the other day
• The heat
• Not the heat, the humidity
• But also the heat
• Sinuses, sinuses, sinuses
• Mother's cottage was ransacked, which she discovered yesterday, when she went up there all alone

EXTRA PRO

• Nothing in cottage was wrecked, and nothing noticeable was stolen. Looks like thieves were probably kids who were scared off.

One of the nurses is asking the doctor about Cuddle Care.

Cuddle Care! Oh, I hope you can do it. Yay for growth!

Cons:

• Still have a ton of work to catch up on from Teh Sick
• It includes filing
• And also going through boxes
• And some minor Shoulda Already Done This guilt

Pros:

• It's a completely lovely day, which
• I know because I was out walking because
• I have public transporation, yay, which took me
• To the post office where I had deb's espresso cookies waiting!
• And then to the Starbucks where I had an unexpectedly free coffee!
• Oh, yeah, and also I did get some of the backlog work done
• And it is still early enough to get a lot of the rest done too.

Last night we were at the NICU during Noah's feeding time. We changed his diaper and cleaned his mouth (mouth cleaning = harrowing because of the tube-age). He had peed through his diaper onto the linens so he needed those changed. Which meant that K got to hold him for a while - a few minutes. He didn't think it was such a good idea then chilled out immediately.

I got to do the between-weighings lift as the nurse zeros the scale. He broke the 4 lb mark yesterday, but I dont know if it will stick or if he'll lose some weight today.

free starbucks is one of my favorite (though rare) things. I LOVE when it happens. It's like being kissed gently on the forehead by corporate america.

Totally. And I never buy starbucks any more, so I have no idea why I had a free one coming. Maybe they were doing a grocery promo again or something, but am I ever not questioning it. I got a Cinnamon Dolce Latte.

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday Ailleann!

Woke up at 4:45 this morning for no apparant reason and dozed fitfully at best until the alarm went off. Plus, I've been either too hot or shivering all day. The sore throat's gone, but new symptoms have arisen. Hopefully if I go to sleep early this will work itself out.

Ooh! I almost forgot. I got distracted because of the thinking about cookies, and then I wandered off into the kitchen to get another one, and then I didn't finish my Pros list, but also:

• We're short on cash this paycheck cycle, but today I got a check from the insurance company, paying back a $100 overpay! Whoo!

The SO had a glitch when he was setting up the automated billpay stuff, and double-paid. Then he thought he'd shorted instead of overpaid and paid them again! So we're glad to have the cash back. We almost never make errors in our favor like this. It's like we had a secret savings account. Without, you know, interest.
