I can't believe Sammy is already a year old!

I talked to my friend K today because it is also her birthday (so many people I know with birthdays today), and she is just a few weeks away from her due date with her second child. This is so exciting because she gave birth to her first child (a boy who is doing great now) when she was only 20 weeks pregnant. I think both her and her doctors were skeptical she could carry to term.

Is today Sammy's birthday? It really doesn't seem possible that it has been a year.

I'm glad your friend is having a better pregnancy this time around. It adds additional stress when the first one was so early.

His birthday is actually Monday with the party tomorrow. But he was born on a Saturday so it sort of feels like today is the day.

Enjoy! I am looking forward to the cake face pictures!

Wow, almost a year already? Amazing.

In poor me news, I am at that blah point of having so much to do at home that I'm having a hard time starting it. I've also been mostly alone once I leave work for two weeks since ND and I are, as per usual, stuck on completely opposite shifts and he's working seven days a week , and my best friends are all also working. Meh. Not a major life problem, but I'm having a hard time pushing past it. Also, we have a fake tree, and I can't put it away by myself, so all the Christmas stuff is still up and depressing me. Whine. Sorry.

Wow, venting helped! Right after posting that, I kicked myself in the butt and got some stuff done. I scooped the cat boxes and the back yard, started a load of laundry, took out the trash and recycling, made myself a snack, emptied the dishwasher, cleaned out the sink, and brewed some iced tea. Progress.

Well done!

I have been massively unproductive today, but have no plan for changing that.

Good for you, Pix. I am in the same headspace, waiting for the SO to get home from recording sessions. Plus sick, so the house needs more cleaned than usual, and I've been eating junk, so resulting lack of energy should be unsurprising.

But I ate much much better today so far. I did nap while my sound files were running off because I lay down to read and the Biscuit got in bed with me, climbed on top of me and promptly fell asleep. So I had no choice! But I'm getting back up now. We'll see how it goes.

I'm sitting backstage in a theatre recording the filming of a live show. I've got 20 channels mixing live and tracking into Pro Tools.

Go Pix!

I have set up my memorial altar, done some laundry, and had lunch. Next I clean the bathroom, then hop on the exercise bike. But first, MOAR COFFEE.
