Hec, let us know how the daycare visit goes. Hope it goes well!

So I got 4 hours of sleep last night. I woke up at 2, stayed in bed till 5. It's ok. Rome wasn't built in a day, blah, blah.

And I am going to the gym, hopefully, today (free two week pass at Y) so hopefully that will help get me on the path to better sleep, a little longer.

At least I'm up during the day, getting lots of stuff done, and actually seeing and TALKING to Dan!

Yay for up during the day! Your cleaning-all-the-things is kind of inspiring, Erin.

Aidan's staying home today. Yesterday he melted down at school and ran and slammed his head into a concrete block wall. The teacher's weren't sure they could get him calm enough to get on the bus. They did, but the bus driver said he cried all the way home. Some days, this parenting thing is hard.

(((((Deena and Aidan))))) I'm sorry about the meltdown. I hope today is better.

I'm done with the steroids in anticipation of my next doctor's appointment, and quickly remembering why I never used to sleep.

Aidan, oh no! Don't DO that, noodle!

I think I am going to clean out my car, take some recycling in, then go to the library.

And the gym. PRAY FOR ME.

I have a medium-sized bag of girl's pjs - size 4. They're in very good shape - any takers?

Also, any 'gentle hands, but with the fast and easy also'~ma would be appreciated, as off I go to the dentist. whee.

{{{{{Deena&Aidan}}}}} Parenting IS hard, but the way I remember it, so is growing up.

Gentle dentistry~ma, Sox.

Sox, we could use them.

Which reminds me that I have a box of stuff that Kalliope has probably by now outgrown (but it can go to Jess's incipient girlchild if she wants it) (but the next round of dresser organizing will probably yield a lot of Kalliope-sized clothes). And I need to send Kat a pair of shoes for Noah (Grace is now almost Matilda-sized). (Which probably means she could use the PJs too.)

(Apologies for the early morning parentheses abuse.)

eta: And much, much dentist~ma.

Dentist~ma, Sox.

JZ - shoot me your addy (profile email should be good) & I'll mail the box this weekend - yay! If you want to split them with Kat, that's cool by me.

Jessica - I think I have a box of 0-1s that somehow didn't make it into Kalliope's pile (sorry Sparky) - including a very cute fleece bear coat (I think)... interested?

thanks for the dentist~ma. I'ma go take some sparkly pre-drugs now. Do not let me get back on the internets for a while, ok?
