So tired

I don't know why I was sooo tired today.  I was...and I still am.  Going to bed early.  ....like in 15 min, it will be near 8:00.  Our little chicks hatched out of their shells today and they appear to be doing well (by that I mean they're still breathing).  Tomorrow is the last day of February, which is exciting.  This coming Spring feels so significant because we will be making the move to Virginia.  I just can't wait for the weight of that hot sun and high levels of humidity to hit me.  It just feels like a warm, cozy blanket.  I can't wait.  I can't wait for tank tops and sunglasses..sunscreen and the beach...well, Travis doesn't like the beach much, but definitely tank tops and sunglasses.

I spent the entire afternoon cooking.  Travis loves the traditional meat and potatoes type of dinner.  Me too...but it can be somewhat time consuming. Thankfully, you have a lot of leftovers.  The kids don't care a whole lot for the roast, though, but will eat it if there's gravy more willingly.  Same thing with pork, hamburger, everything except fish.  It's ketchup or just a tomato sauce (which I prefer them to eat) with the pork and hamburger and gravy with the roast.  For some very strange reason the girls now prefer sweet potatoes over the mashed potatoes, they will eat the mashed without much fuss, but ask for the sweet.  Well, I guess they are sweeter.

Everything with the girls 'play' these days is Dora Dora Dora.  They re-enact the episodes, than take time to ask each other about their favorite parts..as is done in the show.  I didn't even know they were getting that part of the show.  They never respond to the t.v.  I guess maybe they know the television set isn't really capable of conversation! ha.  I don't know.  Anyhow.  So, back to work for Travis tomorrow.  One more day at home for me.  I plan on making Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies tomorrow.  Because our cake is gone.  Besides, if there was not more planned out then I could possibly do, it could be entirely disturbing.  If I find a spare bit of time lately, I simply don't know how to think correctly, I plant myself on the couch, (mostly b/c i'm tired) and then I begin to mindlessly read through face book comments, pictures, and I can't seem to snap out of it!  It's like I'm in a trance...and then when I'm done, I feel like I've dirtied my precious time with useless information.  Then I swear to not open the computer during my spare, tired, time.

I hope tomorrow I don't feel as tired.  I hope that I can have a good day with the kids, get some work done, and the cookies made...but we'll see.  I am preparing mentally for work on Tuesday.  At least I don't have to go to those stupid meetings every other Wednesday where all us SLPs get together from the district.  At times, certain information is brought up that is useful, but most times, not.  I will be using that time for paperwork, the special education director gave me permission to do so.  I think I should try and look for a job in Virginia tomorrow as well.  Well, off to a relaxing evening and an early bedtime!
