This picture made my week that much better
Ups:
-The above picture. I got out the camera and said "Smile!" and this is the face Maeve gave me. Its so awesome when I am able to capture moments like this on camera. She is such a funny little girl.
-I had some Super Savings at Save on Foods. There was Kraft Dinner on for $.75 each. Which is sweet because Maeve and I really like Kraft Dinner. Also there was Laundry detergent for $7.99. Ari is kind of special and has to use Sunlight brand detergent or else he will get excema. So for our little family it was a sweet deal.
-Since Grapes are now on sale I gave Maeve a few green grapes to eat. She really likes them and every time I see her take a little bite of grape I just get warm fuzzies inside. Its just such a tiny little mouth eating a tiny little grape. Its always a very delicate matter and its a very serious business eating grapes. A minimum 3 little chomps per grape. Its the little things like that that I want to remember. So cute.
-So Ari called me during one of his night shifts this week. He called around 1:00am and I was still awake. (shame on me) For some reason at that time I was thinking "What if my brain got erased tonight and I didn't know who you were". I told Ari my thoughts and I could just picture the head shake he was giving me over the phone. It was a valid concern at that moment. Moral of the story. 1:00am is too late for anyone to be awake. You end up thinking about strange things.
Downs:
-You ever have those weeks that are particularly draining? Well this weekend was one of them. I am not sure what is causing it really. Maybe hormomones, or stress, or diet. I don't really know. But I do feel a bit emotionally drained. I think I just need to "recharge my batteries" so to speak. Perhaps a nice long bath will do the trick.
- I've got the House Hunting itch. Similar to the baby itch but houses. I want our own house. But we are so far away from that point still. I mean we still have a bunch of student loans and we don't even know where we will end up living 2 years from now. Its all up to wherever Ari will get a job. So it was exciting thinking about it but its still such a long way off that it made me a little sad. One day I will have a house of my own.
- While filming my video last week I had some frustrations with it. I was having difficulties when filming just talking part. I kept on stumbling over my words and stuttering. I had to stop 2 times and just take a deep breath on camera. At one point i said "you know what I have to just stop, I'll come back to that later." The only problem is, is that I didn't actually come back to it. So when I went to edit everything I had pick the best out of those bad takes. In the end I think it all worked out, however I was feeling a little self conscious about myself after editing.
