Small setback to our return to Normalcy
Aug. 20th, 2013 09:01 amWe got home on Sunday afternoon. There was no food in the house, so we ordered a pizza. Basically, that was lunch and dinner and I planned to go shopping on Monday. I think I slept better on the strange bed all week on vacation then I did at home in my own wonderful bed on Sunday night. Sunday nights crappy sleep was the result of the loss of my Toothy Thing last week and Katey waking up at 2 am. I had to lay on her floor for an hour to get her back to sleep. Sadly, Monday dawned dreary and rainy and migrainy. (totally a word in my vocabulary)
I spent the entire day Monday fighting a nasty migraine. I tried doing a few things, but every time I moved around I would feel nauseous. Advil did not help. I never ended up going to the store. This was a sad thing. Katey missed her milk all day. I had just enough of the end of a loaf of bread we brought home with us for toast for me and pb sandwiches for Nicky. Katey ate the two hotdogs we brought home. lol
The kids were super good until late afternoon. I guess I should have put Katey down for a nap, because she passed out some time after four and woke up around 5:50. She did not wake up well. She spent the next hour crying hysterically. She was just overly tired and no milk which soothes her. Ned got home from work and I sent him out to the store to grab some basics.
I woke up this morning migraine free! Yay, even though Katey woke up again at 2, I slept better. I did spend time creating a menu and grocery list yesterday. I know exactly what I want to buy and make. I am going to try some freezer cooking. Most of the recipes that I prep and freeze are going to go straight into the crockpot when I pull them from the freezer. The thirteen recipes I put together should make 21 meals. Ambitious, but doable. I am also just about out of laundry soap. I need to make some more. I usually do that on Tuesday nights when my friend comes over. She has a thing tonight at her church, so not coming. I am sad. It is her job to grate the bars. Guess I am on my own with this batch.
Well, it is almost 9 and I think I will get showered, dressed, become a normal human being again. Then, chores! Sounds fun, right?
