Some Kinda Funk

I started on a high yesterday, Finley + Penelope slept until after 9am, NKOTBSB announced a concert during Stampede which resulted in us having to move our trip to Yellowstone + Mount Rushmore to accomodate such concert.

I put away all of our Christmas decorations + took them downstairs, I cleaned the TV room, the living room, and started on the kitchen.  I did all of Finley + Penelope's laundry, washed + folded diapers, made our meal plan for the week, made us all lunch and then it happened.

I got hit by some kinda migraine like you would not believe.  I have lost count of how many I have suffered from in recent weeks but I do know it has been a lot.  Too many for my liking that is for sure.  Penelope co-operated and went to sleep nicely most of the afternoon but Finley demanded my attention although I did manage to divert it for awhile thanks to a build up of Sesame Street on our PVR from Christmas vacation.  But she really just wanted to play with the new toys.  I took a bunch of drugs a bunch of times and by the time Greg got home supper was made and I was feeling pretty sluggish.

Greg cleaned up the kitchen and then we all went upstairs and watched some TV and after the kids went to bed we watched She's Out Of My League which I thought would be awful but turned out to be pretty funny.  I had lost my motivation to do anything else productive so I went to bed shortly after this ended.

Penelope woke up at 5, 530, 6 and finally 630 for good.  I fed her and played with her before putting her down for a nap.  Finley was just waking up so we had breakfast together.  I had planned on working out, finishing the cleaning in the kitchen, putting yesterday's laundry away, vacuuming our stairs, cleaning the kids' rooms and so on and son on.  But after I read a very sad blog, tried forever to get through to South Calgary Health Centre for a 6 month vaccination appointment for Penelope with no success, found out that I had registered Finley for a gymtastics class that started yesterday which I thought started on Saturday but thankfully had us switched into a Wednesday class, I really lost my motivation to do anything.

So instead, I played, sang + danced with Finley, cuddled with Penelope, watched The Bachelor (for first time ever!!) made some cookies that didn't turn out (forgot the egg), made supper that made me want to vomit but that both Greg + Finley joyfully ate, found a recipe for homemade hot chocolate on Martha Stewart's website and decided to make me a cup while Greg went to Safeway + Walmart with Finley.

So now I am drinking my delicious hot chocolate, cuddling with Penelope while I finish this blog.  I plan on going upstairs with my treat + babe and curl up on the couch with my Rider Snuggie (thanks mom) and read Ricky Martin's Autobiography Me.

Hopefully, I return to my normal self tomorrow and start working on my "resolves" but if not, another day like today would be alright too.
