Downs
- I think Calvin is getting sick. When I went to pick him up from daycare he rushed over and clung to me immediately which is unusual. Once I got him home, he just wanted to cuddle instead of running around like normal. Usually, this means he’s getting sick. I really hope that he manages to fight it off. However, before I picked him up, I was feeling a sore throat starting. I’ll be really annoyed if I got sick just in time for Jaeger’s and my anniversary trip.
Ups
- I got up early enough to lift weights this morning. In addition, since Calvin was feeling so sluggish, I took him out for a long stroller walk. Normally, I don’t do this in the afternoon for fear he’ll fall asleep, which he did, but I figure a little extra sleep is good if he’s fighting off a cold.
- Today was my day off. I managed to finish baking both 9-grain and rye bread. Also, I got supper made before Calvin arrived home which ended up being really good since I think he would have been crying all afternoon if I couldn’t just sit on the couch and hold him.
- I’m looking forward to Jaeger and my anniversary trip. Jaeger’s mom is flying in Thursday evening to take care of Calvin and we’re taking off Friday afternoon and will be gone until Sunday evening. I’m looking forward to both of us being able to sleep in at the same time!
Calvin Moment
- Calvin really didn’t do much today other than cuddle. However, it was kind of nice to be able to cuddle with him. He’s usually so active I rarely get the chance to just hold him.
Simplification
- Didn’t do anything. However, Jaeger got registered for Freecycle yesterday in hopes that we’ll finally be able to get rid of some stuff like our microwave and old TV.
