I had an old friend message me tonight and compliment my writing tonight. It took me by surprise, and made me feel all the feelings, because I've been pushing myself to find more time to read things other than BuzzFeed and write things other than photo captions this year.
So, my brain was trying to write an official blog post, but nah. Here's a list of random stuff instead!
-I'm reading Gretchen Rubin's "The Happiness Project" . Loving it.
-I put away almost all of the Christmas decorations, and somehow my house feels 100% more clean.
- I got fitted for a new nursing bra today, and I am a 32 K? WHAT ON EARTH. It's a real size, too. I'm not making this up.
- I ate a double burger from P. Terry's today, and it was all of the good things happening. Also, a chocolate shake. Don't judge me.
- You might like this as much as I did.
-If you didn't like that, you'll love this.
-Feeling bad about yourself? Roscoe watched AT LEAST 4 hours of other people playing with "Thomas the Tank Engine" videos today. I know. I'm the worst mom. He ate lunch today, though. So, I mean, it's about balance, y'all.

Tonight, I held each of my kids as they fell asleep. It's one of the things in my life I most savor and detest. I'm super bi-polar about it. I know one day they will go to sleep on their own, but they don't yet. None of them do. It gets especially tough on days like today, when I could actually hear the glass of wine downstairs calling my name.
My New Years resolution(s) is to stop yelling and to take more time for myself. Tonight, I had my cell phone in hand, the screen dimly lit, and I was scrolling through feminist blog postings, because Lindsey Gates-Markel sent me some links that I was EATING UP. And there's all this sleep research that's like, TURN THE SCREEN OFF, but also, TREAT YO' SELF, y'know? So, I read and kissed their little heads in between loving my reading life, and maybe it took them longer to fall asleep, but I wasn't stressing myself out either. So, there you go. Also, this Pinot Noir is tasting too good.
