Darling Son

…with sleep on Wednesday.

I’d gone to bed before nine because I was totally wiped out and so could have gone to bed at 6pm if I’d been home by then.  I did wake up at 6 am only to find out that classes were cancelled at UK and that I didn’t have to go into the office. 

Of course I’d known this was a possibility when I left work the day before so I’d brought plenty of work home to do because I had too much left to do to prepare for our big event on Thursday night.  I knew that because I’d been working some incredibly long days and on the weekend, too.

Still it was all good.  It was for my most favorite project of nearly every year that I’ve had this job.  It would probably be every year if they hadn’t out sourced it the first year I had this job — but hey!  Dey din’t no I coulda dun if fer dem den!

When I did wake up about two and a half hours later I felt like I was drunk.  Seriously.  I don’t know if it was because I’d slept for so long or too hard or what, but I woke up feeling drunk and tipsy.  I nearly tripped over my feet even!

I made a nice pot of coffee, took the pups out and fed them, snapped some pictures of ice laden trees around my house, and then settled into some work stuff.

That was pretty much my Wednesday.  Work for a while.  Take some pictures.  Play with the pups.  Work for a while…etc.

Here’s a short video of Gracie and the Minikins…

We lost no power or even cable during this ice storm.  Yes, we were blessed.  Especially when one considers that the state is under "emergency" and the National Guard has been mobilized to assist — and that we live in one of the oldest neighborhoods in Lexington!  I know my Dad in the Big O has been without power for several days already, but he says he is fine and doesn’t need anything.

I’ve thought of many things to blog about these last few days, but didn’t have the energy, or will, to blog them.

Click on this photo of my big giant kid that I took yesterday, while he was getting ready (dawdling) to pick up an Rx and our birthday cake, and it will take you to that slide show.  See there was no birthday cake on my birthday and he had to work on his so we got a cake from Magee’s yesterday.  Ummm.  Cake.

I think it’s very odd how I can eat cake quite easially compared to how I can’t eat bread.  Odd.  Isn’t cake a form of bread anyway?

I seem to be losing weight again — even though I’ve not been to the gym in like SIX MONTHS.  Yes, it really has been that long.  I will be back in the gym starting tomorrow.  Hubby may be going to.  I hope so.  He won’t stay as long as me, but I know he’ll feel better once he gets used to it!  I am so looking forward to the gym tomorrow.  I may even get a household membership so my darling son may use the gym, too.
