I'm letting Jack sleep in this morning. He's usually up between 6:30 and 6:45 every morning, like clockwork, but here it is almost 7:20 and I've heard nary a peep.
I am still fighting the plague swine flu Virus of Death, still coughing like a pack-a-day smoker and blowing my nose every 5 minutes, but I'm definitely on the upswing. Miracle of miracles, it appears that Jack and R managed to escape unscathed. I'm pretty excited to be feeling better just in time for my root canal on Friday! Wheeee!
My mom was here this last weekend and we had a blast. I wish SO MUCH that she lived closer. I know that, at least for now, I'm here in the bay area and I love it here and this is where my life is, but selfishly I just wish there was some way she could live closer to us. I love seeing how close she and Jack still are. He sees her and his face just lights up. He was crushed when he realized she wasn't getting back in the car last night when we dropped her off to go home. Those 10 months of living in Washington bonded them. Please send a million dollars so my mom can move closer to me. The end.
Anyway, we went back to the Discovery Museum and had an absolute blast. We are now card carrying members of both the zoo and the museum. I am nothing if not bound and determined to not have an empty afternoon with beautiful weather and nothing to do. Jack is climbing the walls after an hour and I consistently make the mistake of trying to get something done like dishes or sweeping and then we end up fighting over it. We really just need to get the hell out of the house.
Well, to wrap up this post about ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, here: I'll shove some pictures at you.
