I'm a 39 yr old married chick who's pondering mommahood, becoming at peace with who I am at long last, finding my voice in this world... and you get to hear it. Lucky lucky you. ;) I am an INFP.

How do you do a short post?

I have no clue, apparently.
I know they've been doozies so far, but.... I've always been like this. This is where and how I best express myself - on the keyboard. It just flows (thank DOG I took typing in high school - typing well is muy importante - and back in the day, there weren't even computers to worry about - had to learn the old-timey way, PUSHING those damn keys DOWN... HARD... Ow! And then, Oh Crap - typo - backspacing, getting the little white out papers, retyping the key til the ink was covered, etc etc. Yeah, wads of fun)

Anyhoo, as I was saying.... it just flows.
Maybe it's cause I don't actually have many people to talk to.
I have M. But, you know, beyond daily conversational stuff, I still have lots going on inside, things I need to work out, things I need to make tangible by writing about it....

So, let's see...
Took Mom Simone to the airport this morning. Bright and early. Makes sense - we live one exit from the airport - why should she pay 100 bucks for parking??
Stopped on way home to get my latte, croissanwich and some donuts. yeah, not a great start, but i do love it. Yum.
Guess I won't be exercising today. Don't know what it's going to take to get me back on that road... can't seem to get there from here. :(

Haven't talked to Elyse in forever. She's so busy with her life.. and lords knows I've been there - am Loving and Thankful for my current life of not much to be accountable for. Haven't nannied in two weeks... I feel like partly, Laura is just being respectful of my mourning period. Without having talked to her, I know she knows this is not a good time for me.
So, just go over to walk Casey every day. Some days I wish I didn't have to do that - could just stay home in bed all day... 'course, i do that Before and After i walk Casey most days, but...
i guess it's good he gets me out of the house.
And that my own babies force me to get up every now and then to take them out.
Just not wanting to do much. Especially now in the summer. Ick.
Can't wait til we get our first real cool day. Guess I'll be waiting a while longer. Supposed to be 92 and Very Humid today. Oh joy.

Was actually up til 3 last night... think my mind wouldn't turn off knowing I had to get up super early today. Went to bed midnightish, but got up to get a book I left by the tub, checked my email, and started piddling.
Cleaned up some of my office.... cleaned and rolled up Max's cooling mat. Trying to figure out what to do with it. Going to see if Casey likes it when he stays with us in a couple weeks. If not, then going to see if Shelby wants it. If not, then maybe I'll see if I can donate it to a shelter for other hot doggies.
Going to put Max's big bed in the truck for the 2 little babies to be able to sit in when we go out.
I think it'll work out.
I don't want to get rid of it. It's His bed. And besides, it's still perfectably usable (I DO love my good finds at Homegoods!). But I def. don't need it in the house anymore.
:(
It's difficult moving things that were Max's, or changing our routines.
Last night, M. closed the door to the basement, to keep the cats out now. Only reason it was open before was for Mister to go down and do his business, once it got out of control. Thank DOG we moved in this house when we did. For him to begin his decline, he couldn't have been in a better place. Fireplace, fenced yard, comfy bed, cooling mat, yummy foods, full water bowls (4 total) always, love from the other 4, and of course us....

I'm feeling super tired now. Think I'll turn the light out for a nice nap.
