In a former life, I would have participated in the Monday bashing. I remember when I would lie in bed hating that I had to get ... http://www.epipsyche.org/?p=1752 Martha has been undergoing some sort of growth spurt/ cognitive milestone/ development in that past few weeks that has been interfering with getting to sleep. Naps aren't so bad although realistically it's only one or two days a week where both morning and afternoon nap are really good naps. Most ... http://www.epipsyche.org/?p=1751 There's no way around it, I'm going to have to go back to work. I knew it would happen, but I had hoped it would be later rather than sooner. I've sharpened up my resume and am getting back into the swing of writing cover letters. I've started actively looking ... http://www.epipsyche.org/?p=1750 I've been saying "Martha is almost crawling" for months. She's always been pretty strong so when she started pushing up onto her arms and then doing this swimmy thing on the floor, I thought it would only be a couple of weeks before she was crawling around. But it wasn't. ... http://www.epipsyche.org/?p=1749 Martha's nine month well visit went pretty well. Two weeks ago at the time of the checkup she was 16 lbs and 27 inches.

It was a lovely wedding. On this date three years ago Fr C and I got married in the Orthodox Church in Columbia, SC. It was also a lovely wedding. This morning ... http://www.epipsyche.org/?p=1746 So the Divine Art of Survival closed last night. It went pretty well. Had a rogue light that kept coming on Wednesday night during the opening which absolutely horrified me, but I fixed it on Thursday. I must've made a mistake when I was fixing the blinky blue cyc lights ... http://www.epipsyche.org/?p=1745 Friday will mark the beginning of Martha's 35th week in the outside world. And she spent 35 weeks in the inside world. This seems like a milestone. Actually it's been a pretty busy week for us. Tuesday I managed getting the cat to and from the vet with Martha in tow....it's ... http://www.epipsyche.org/?p=1744 I've been avoiding posting for awhile because it seems that the only thing on my mind has been the continued lack of sleep.
