I am trying to enjoy being home but at certain moments find it hard to do. Life wasted no time at throwing me back into the routine of things. Erick of course is back to work, me and Kaia of course are back to our regular daily routine. I have started my big sewing project but like most things these days it only gets worked on between meals, cuddles, nursing, naps and chores. It is slow going is what I am trying to say. I am hoping that finding a hobby will help me tolerate living in this town. I am trying to think pros and cons....so I think ok what would I be doing if I didn’t live here and I lived in a city or whatever. I don’t really see much of a difference other than shopping. I have my life here so I suppose this is where we will be for many years. And I think that this slump of feeling blah and annoyed with everything will happen to me no matter where we are. I am desperate for a change and find myself making big renovation plans for our house. Of course financially these things will only happen gradually. But that is ok. Each project will keep me distracted.
   I think I missed the gardening boat this year. I haven’t done anything in my veggie garden and I don’t think I am going to bother now. I need to clean up my perennial beds and maybe get some more pretty plants to add to the mix. I am disappointed because I did enjoy my little veggie garden last year even though I didn’t reap much of anything.
I attempted to hang some diapers on the line the other day but due to my neglect my clothes pins are brown and rusted and ugly looking. So I need to replace those before I clip them to any of my garments and that includes diapers.
I am really trying to get square meals on the table everyday and always have baking around. My Grammy inspired me while I was there visiting. She always had yummy meals prepared for us every evening. The dinner conversation was nice and then the after meal coffee or tea with dessert was a nice touch too. I might skip the dessert part but I think that making these things routine will be nice.
I still need to get my butt into shape. BLAH end of story.
Kaia has been a little crank pot the last few days... teething probably. She was up 3 times the other night. Yuk. However she did make up for it last night, she slept all night. I had to wake up and pump though. None the less we slept well.
Well I need to move on and make good use of my time...time to do a row or two knitting and then get back to the sewing project. Chores What chores.
