Not my day.
Today has been one of those days, and it’s only 10 am.
1. At 3.30 am, Operation Un-Swaddle came to a screeching halt. Madeline woke herself up by bashing herself in the face in an attempt to … well, I’m not sure. Maybe scratch her nose? Rub her eyes? Anyhow, she was crabby & obviously still exhausted so I just bundled her back up and put her down. She managed to sleep a few more hours. It takes me ages to get back to sleep, unfortunately, so I am pretty darn tired.
2. Discovered after my shower that I have put on 10 pounds (!!) since January 1st. I’m attributing it to all the emotional eating I’ve been doing in conjunction to J’s departure. However, it has to stop. Nothing fits, I feel horrible & look even worse.
3. Also discoverd upon getting dressed this morning that my only remaining comfortable bra has bit the dust. The underwire broke (I guess it couldn’t handle the load – see #2) and it isn’t salvageable. I really didn’t want to spend any money on new clothes until I had lost some weight, but the situation is a bit desparate now.
4. Realized that with the sun out in full force, putting Madeline down for naps in the morning is going to become almost impossible. I have to find some blackout curtains ASAP. Again, another item I just didn’t want to spend money on yet. Argh.
Is it any wonder all I want to do is crawl back in bed? *sigh*
