NoJoMo 28

I was marveling this morning over how much energy I had. I woke up around 4:30 though I stayed in bed another half hour. Frank and Camden thought they were creeping out quietly and leaving me to sleep. I felt obligated to stay in bed a polite amount of time. Soon enough though, I was in the living room with them drinking coffee and watching Morning Joe. There was even time this morning to chop up veggies, brown some meat and dump everything in the crock pot for chili. We got the boys dressed and ready for daycare. Q was halfway to the van in his cute bright yellow and black coat when he stopped and threw his arms back, "Wait wait!" he exclaimed and turned around to look at me standing in the door. "Mama, I NEED another hug!" And he came running back at me, with Camden on his heels also demanding, "Need hug!" Loved it, loved it, loved it!

But we all came home extra tired.  Q at least tried the chili. Cam didn’t care for it at all. I ended up making them hot dogs, cauliflower in cheese sauce, and apple sauce. I will keep trying to expand their little palates.

Wonder if I am a big winner yet. Put the last five dollars I had in change into a lotto pot at work today. 500 mill for the power ball. I’d love to have a really good reason to call into work on Friday.

I better get Q…and Frank into bed. It’s not even eight pm yet. 

Sad.
