Rough day

How I Feel Today

I’m hurtling forward in space and time, alone, and things are out of my control and cold and gray. And my eyes are bulging out of my head, and I’m wearing a bolo tie. And there’s a weird conductor guy interrupting my reverie. And the babysitter is telling me my daughter’s PJ’s are dirty. And someone at work is calling to excoriate me about not being “truly collaborative.”  And a bottle of breastmilk spilled on the floor. And my coffee spilled on the computer. And hyperinflation looms.

Tomorrow surely will be an improvement. Nina is turning nine months. Happy Birthday! She said her first word over the weekend in Washington DC, and it is CAT. And attended her first Georgetown basketball game.

    Everyone feels tired at times but never as tired as when you are getting up in the middle of the night. I just want you both to know that your parenting skills are wonderful, I really feel you have your values in the right place. Nina is such a lucky baby, you both should be very proud of yourselves. Please give her a very big birthday kiss on her nine month old birthday and tell her I will see her soon. Love, Grandma
