~ There are a few daily reports that I have to process each day. They all look the same. I keep them stacked in my drawer or in our vault just in case (once in a blue moon) I have to go back and reference something. To make my life easier, I use a different highlighter each day so that I can skip through dates faster when digging for a specific report. All sound normal so far? Here's the confession part: I coordinate the highlighter I use for the day with what I am wearing. haha that is so embarrassing to write but that's what this is for, right? So today I am wearing a green cardigan .. and using my lime green highlighter. :)
~ There are certain foods that, for one reason or another, I was convinced I didn't like. English muffins were on the list. Our tastebuds change as we get older so this might have been true at one point. Well not any more! They were on sale a couple weeks ago so I got a pack. For dinner, we had toasted english muffins with poached eggs and roasted potatoes. Soo good. It was a grown-up breakfast and sparked a new found appreciation. Maybe I should go back and revisit some other foods....
~ I haven't slept well the last two nights. I get sleepy and go to bed around the normal time but then my mind just wakes up and is racing until about 2:00am. Yesterday wasn't so bad but today, after two nights in a row, I'm starting to feel it. The silver lining is this: my dog always comes in our bedroom and "monitors" us to make sure we are safe. About 10 minutes after we turn off the light, I can hear him making one last pass around the house. It's his doggy version of checking the doors and turning off lights, I suppose. Well his night-guarding habits means that we are usually asleep before he is. The past couple of nights though, since I have been awake, I have been able to hear him sleeping and dreaming. His little whimpers and fake running melt my heart. I think everyone deserves the opportunity to have a dog. It really is a blessing.
~ I am pretty good with babies. They like me and I like them. They let me hold them, coo them, and rock them to sleep. I would feel confident about this except Mark is the freaking Baby Whisperer. The man (and his father) have some gene mutation that makes them irresistible to babies. He eats it up! Of course it is one of the million reasons I fell in love with him but STILL!? I feel that as a girl I should somehow have this "one up" on him but I don't. The reason I bring this up is that we are (finally!!) meeting our niece next month. We are fully prepared to spoil that child rotten. The problem is that I have this inkling that she is going to like Mark so much more than me. And that makes me jealous. Silly and jealous.
~ This really isn't a confession but I thought I would share. I'm eating Stoneyfield's Honey Fig Greek Yogurt right now for breakfast and it is sooo good. Once again, it was on sale 10/$10 and I had never tried their brand. You should go get some.
