Sundays

Even though sometimes I get the blues on Sundays, thinking about gearing up for a new week, I've really come to enjoy them.

Now that football season is in full swing, William isn't around as much as he used to be on Sundays but I still luck out occasionally and he makes me blueberry or chocolate chip waffles while I wake up. Reading the Sunday paper. Not feeling pressured to get going early for any reason.

Today I woke pretty late (and I still need more sleep I think), and made trips to Trader Joe's and Target, getting groceries in order. I made a homemade mac-and-cheese hot dish (casserole for you non-Minnesotans), and cleaned up. Now I have the evening to read, watch my weekly cryfest (Extreme Makeover: Home Edition), finish the paper, have a snack, and snuggle up with a newly-groomed Mo and a cute husband.

It's getting colder and colder out, which makes me enjoy the comfort food and blankets all the more, even if I resist the idea that my birthday, and thus winter, are right around the corner. I can't believe I'm going to be 28. It's just weird.

That's really all I've got. It's been a nice, quiet day.

While I don't want it to be 28 degrees, I do wish it were cooler here.

And less fiery. :(

I hear you about the age thing. I can't believe we're getting that close to 30 either. However, several times this year I've forgotten my age and have claimed to already be 28. What's up with that? Why am I aging myself before I get there? Oh well.

My birthday is coming up soon too. Less than a month. And I too will be 28. Holy crap.

How do I get in on the pancake and waffles deal? Maybe I need to trade mine in for one that cooks. ;) Aaahh...what a(nother) wonderful, lazy Sunday.

I love Sundays too! For all the same reasons. The paper, sleeping in, snuggling. I wish I had a Mo to snuggle with too! :-)
