| so did xanga get sortof left behind now that everybody and their hamster is on facebook? that's too bad. it's probably not obvious, but i like xanga. | | |
| a week after i wrote that last post i cut dairy from my diet, in all forms. that was a very unfortunant turn of events, initiated by my son's possible symptoms of a sensitivity to dairy in my diet. we are in a three week testing period now to see if that's the case. but in any case, i want to add rice milk to the list of very poor substitutes for real, whole milk in tea. today i will try almond milk, but i don't have any great expectations. *edit* the almond milk was gross in my tea, don't ever try it. | | |
| tea is not the same with creamer. without milk, it's just not that great. | | |
| i heard on the radio today that it's supposed to rain starting Thursday evening and continuing through the weekend. they said it'll be the heaviest rainfall since Feb. 2005. i tried to remember which rainfall was Feb. 2005. then i realized what a funny thing it was, trying to remember a specific rainfall that happened 3 years ago. never did that in Washington... | | |
| as i look at my profile picture it seems like it was a million years ago. i think it was one year ago. a year in which my dreams came true and turned out to not be like i thought. i'm still really thankful though. one thing i want to learn is to not wish away the present and always be living for the next thing. i'd forseen pregnancy through "rose colored glasses", but almost the whole 9 months were uncomfortable and somewhat painful. i'd romanticized having a little baby, and now with a 1 month old bundle i'm sleep deprived and unable to keep up with the most basic of my homemaking responsibilities. but i don't want to always be looking for the next phase. i just wanted to be pregnant. i just wanted the baby to come out. i just want him to sleep through the night so i can too, and be able to function properly throughout the day. sleep when the baby sleeps? right. and never do dishes, cook for my husband, take a shower, do the laundry, tidy up the house... am i supposed to go grocery shopping, attend church, or see friends also? well, maybe when he starts sleeping through the night. meanwhile i need to seek God. depend on Him for strength and endurance. today has been a hard day. i got stressed out. baby isn't doing what he's supposed to when he's supposed to. i haven't been disciplined to keep his days properly scheduled. i think i have to discipline myself to get up and feed him at the right times in the mornings even though it'll mean less sleep for a couple of days (hopefully only a couple) so we can both get on a healthy schedule. | | |
