Days of Grace 2-21-10
1. Inlaw party went off without a hitch last night. Whew. Matching dessert plates were passed around, loaded with blueberry pie. My heart was happy.
2. We got up early to take the dog to the dog park, because we’ve been feeling like terrible dog-people. Fortunately, Nellie informed us (through her utter lack of interest in doing dog-park things once we were there) that she hasn’t been missing the dog park at all, and couldn’t we please go back home where it’s warm and there is a soft bed to lie on? Seriously, the dog is a princess. She did her leap-up-into-my-arms trick at least 15 times, usually while I was trying to balance on icy snow. But I don’t feel bad anymore about how rarely she’s gotten to the park this winter. She’d just as soon sleep in, too.
3. Cut flowers. I bought them for the party, but I get to enjoy them for the next few days! Tulips and roses and a pretty, weedy-looking yellow flowerlet. Very nice.
4. Ah, morning sickness in the morning! This is why everyone encourages you to eat little meals and not get up and get going without breakfast. Park took precedence over Cheerios this morning, which was obviously a mistake. Urgh. (Not complaining! Loving the incontrovertible symptom!)
5. Kate over at I Can’t Whistle wrote a wonderful post which, if you haven’t yet, you should go over and read. It made my whole damned MONTH.
