Shoved to Them
1. I love friends you can have a great conversation with. The kind of friends that walk you to your car and then you stand in the driveway for the next hour just talking about something deep and meaningful. The kind of friends who know that you really do want a slice of cake left over from their kid’s birthday, but would never ask, so they offer it to you up front.
2. I made meatloaf tonight. It’s my favorite recipe, Paul Deen’s Barbecue Meatloaf. I’m not so much a great cook as a great finder of other people’s recipes. Google is your friend.
3. I went to the zoo with my older brother and my nephew. We don’t always get along, but it’s nice to spend time with someone to whom you don’t have to explain your whole backstory and your motivation behind everything you do. They’ve known you long enough to know why.
4. I’ve had a headache for the last week due to my allergies. Headaches suck, but somehow I’ve managed to be a relatively nice person instead of snapping at everyone and crawling back into bed as I do at this time every year. Yea me!
5. I’m missing #2 more than I thought I would. I knew I would miss him, but I thought we would be so busy that we would be fine. We’re busy. I’m not fine. I miss my baby and want him home.
