Downs

• Calvin is resisting winter. Specifically, he screams bloody murder anytime I try to dress him for bed in pants and long sleeve pajamas. I’ve been sneaking in and putting a blanket on him after he’s asleep but then he wakes up and starts crying trying to get the blanket off his legs. This resulted in him waking up an hour earlier than normal this morning so for tonight I’ve just turned the space heater in his bedroom up.
• I went to bed early last night in hopes of being able to wake up early and exercise before Calvin got up. However, I laid awake in bed for more than an hour before falling asleep. I did manage to drag myself out of bed around 6 but just as I was starting to exercise Calvin woke up upset about the blanket issue.

Ups

• Saw Matthew and Heather over the weekend. They were driving through Boulder on the way to Estes Park.
• I don’t think I’m going to have trouble falling asleep tonight.

Calvin Moment

• Calvin has started building with his duplos. At the moment, he can build very tall towers.

Simplification
One of the reasons I started trying to simplify was to reduce the amount of junk we’d have to wade through when we move. However, I don’t think I’m making particularly good progress on this.

• Shredded a pile of receipts I found from 2008.
