One B, Coming Right Up!

It came out a bit fluffy looking for a small boy’s  blankie, but I’m hoping that it will work for the little guy. I even added a pocket with a snap closure so he could put some of the remaining shreds of his first ‘B’ in the pocket and have them with him wherever he and his B goes.

I wrote him a note, explaining the reason for the pocket, and tucked it in with the B. It’s all set to go to the post office tomorrow. I called him last night to sing the "Happy Birthday" song to him. I called his brother’s cell phone and asked him if he could pass the phone to his brother so I could sing the birthday song to him. He laughed and said, "Sure." After finishing my song, I told him that I had finished his B and would put it in the mail tomorrow. He sounded really excited. I hope he’s still excited when he sees it in person. I asked him to put his brother back on the phone.

When his brother took his phone back, I asked him where they were because I could hear a lot of noise in the background. He said they were at their grandparent’s house and his little brother was trying to break a pinata. I told him to go join in the fun and I would talk to him later on.

Onward and upward…

Tonight has been the longest night I’ve spent in absolute ages. I’ve had to take allergy pills to stop my runny nose and it’s got me wide awake. DH came to tell me to come to bed — well, not in so many words, but he walked in from the bedroom, stood at the doorway to the living room, gave me a look and pointed to his wrist. His message? "Do you know what time it is?? Don’t you think it’s time you were in bed??" Or something to that effect. Well, I turned off my Kindle, turned out the light and followed him off to bed. This was at 2:00 a.m. I laid there for a good 30 min. and was cold so got up, put on socks, threw a quilt on my side of the bed and crawled in. Utter quiet. I’m wide awake. I toss and turn… finally I get up, put n a warm housecoat and quietly go out to the kitchen. I take 2 extra-strength acetaminophen and make myself a cup of hot cocoa. Then I come in here to post on OD. I heard DH get up again awhile ago but he never came in to say anything to me. I’ll hear about it in the morning when I’m dragging, but he knows I have nights when I can’t sleep.

That’s all for this entry … be safe, be well and please be happy. Take care of yourself. You ARE important.
