A choice that has driven almost all decisions lately. I hate to be a broken record, but we are still dealing with fragmented sleep here and one's thinking gets cloudy after weeks of it.
One of the side effects of Aaron being home for 3 weeks between jobs was that I had use of the car. Really helpful for running errands, especially food shopping. What I didn't consider was how much Olivia and I enjoy biking places. Yesterday was Aaron's first day at the new job and it was bucketing rain, so Olivia and I did not bike to play group.
After a day of being cooped up indoors I decided that today we would go to a tumbling class to make up for it. I hustled Ols into her clothes this morning and biked downtown to get there by 9:30 to discover -- the class has been canceled. No matter, it's a beautiful sunny day so we came home and opened up the patio door and all the windows.
Now she is napping and I have an opportunity to get some work done on this tiny consulting project but my head is so fuzzy I am not sure I can have much problem-solving ability.
For instance I only just realized yesterday that when Olivia requests a bottle, as she does several times a day, she just wants something to drink. I was taking her literally and we were getting into a struggle over weaning her off a bottle. Finally I came to understand I could put water in a cup with a straw (somehow sippy cups became non grata. She won't drink out of them at all.) and she was good to go. Oy.
I am yawning, but I just heard Olivia wake up from her too-brief nap.
