It's barely passed 60 degrees the past two days, and today is supposed to be the same. And it's kind of raining, just often enough and heavy enough to keep us inside for the morning. So of course, The Miss is bouncing off the walls. And it's Friday, so no school.

Put two more blankets on the bed last night, because we didn't want to turn on the heat yet. There's something very satifying about pulling a heavy pile of quilts over yourself on a cold night. And this morning, there are pumpkin muffins and tea to keep us warm.

The Boy and I ran errands while The Miss was at school yesterday morning. Took a pile of outgrown clothes and other stuff to Goodwill, shopped there for clothes (and had a good haul), Walmart for groceries, a quick visit with D. Then home, unload car, and hurry down to the road to meet the bus. He already recognizes that the bus means sister is coming home, and is very excited.

The Miss made it all day yesterday without an accident, which makes us all happy, and gave us happy news for the when both Grandmas called to check on her first week of school. Now we just have to keep her dry overnight.

Just put a braided loaf of multigrain bread in the oven. There is lentil-veggie soup (with chicken, and turkey stock we made and froze a few months back) in the slow cooker. Got the dishwasher loaded and running. The Miss is enjoying a movie and a bowl of cheerios. The Boy has been asleep in the papasan chair for the past hour.*

Think that counts as progress.

Also, The Miss has gone two days without an accident. Momma is so happy.


* Just thought that The Boy is sleeping an awful lot lately--he crashed last night around 6:30, and slept until morning. Oh gods, what if he's growing into those feet?
