My kid is now officially in the "I really don't want to sleep" phase, which makes the days seem so incredibly long. I honestly look at how much I got accomplished today, and I am 1 ) proud of my determination but 2 ) tired just by thinking about the day. Baby was up from about noon-9 PM off and on. I did clean the bathroom this morning while she slept, though, which makes me feel like I should be exempt from housework for a while, leaving it all for my husband :) If I cleaned the bathroom, this means it had to desperately need a cleaning for me to muster up the energy to do it. I must say, though, I think I put his cleaning job to shame :)
On top of the many baby stops and starts, I managed to dry my hair and put some non-PJ's on by 3 today, and the baby and I went out to Whole Foods (we were out of fruit...not a good thing). Unfortunately, we got stuck in rush hour traffic on the way back home and sure enough, baby started wailing for a reason unknown to me. I pulled over and held her for a bit. After about 15 minutes, we were able to get on our way. I was thinking how weird it must have looked to the ongoing traffic to see me get out of my car, get into the backseat, and then get back into the driver's seat. Haha!
Anyway, we made it to Home Depot so I could get what I needed to finish my chalkboard project. I put another coat of paint on tonight and I think I am going to do one more tomorrow. By the weekend, we should know if we have a working chalkboard!
Besides my normal picking up, I did all of this AND somehow managed my girl's day AND did a crafty project!! And, the hubby is not even home yet (Fantasy Football draft). I figured I would be dead tired now...just my mind is. I can't sleep. I feel like I now have some free time while baby is asleep, and I now need to do something mindless...Googling is always fun and doesn't take much energy. Sounds perfect :) I feel like Wonder Woman today! I seriously have a whole new appreciation for single mothers.
