I’m so incredibly tired today. Work was quite a struggle- all people who opposed me got kicked in the head. Ok, maybe only in my mind. But still, it was pretty rough. My tiredness could be due to a couple things. First, growing a human inside me. Second, sympathy tiredness from John staying up until 2am to study last night. Third, moving my little bro in. Last night I went and got my brother from his apartment and moved him into our office/baby’s room/junk room. The room is now full to capacity- which is always a wee stressful to me. But I’m trying to be chill about the whole lots of stuff thing. He’ll move into a new place on the 1st, so in the meantime…I guess we’ll just enjoy the boy’s company. He stayed home sick from work today and I actually had the thought, “He’s seriously just sitting there, breathing all over my stuff.” It irked me, so I came home from lunch and brought him some Lysol and instructed him to spray everything he touched. Because he has a cold. On the way out the door he kissed the top of my head and then proceeded to cover my head with a cold, wet, sanitizing spray. Thanks brother.
John finished his finals today :) Good job him. This semester was rough, what with all the job changes and the fact that he now has to go to campus on his own, and the baby which by extension means my emotional instability…I can see how it’s hard to do the student thing some days. He studied quite a bit this week- and I’m happy to say he moving on to the next thang in the progression. Which involves more classes…but also just two terms and one more semester before graduation. When I was driving home from work tonight I saw a guy and a girl in robes up by the Cougar taking pictures in their caps and gowns, a small baby between them. It really is quite the thing to do around here, isn’t it? I’m not going to walk- I’m not sure if John will desire to walk. But I think the accomplishment still stands. Another remarkable, albeit quiet achievement that gets us moving in the right direction.
I think it might actually start to be spring a bit around here. On my drive home there is a road entirely lined with purple flowering trees. They’re the type that look gorgeous and flowery for about 3 weeks, and then loose all their flowers and fill in with a bunch of leafy green. I hear that there might be snow tomorrow morning (hence the reason I still haven’t washed my car, although is has become a birdy porta-potty) but I’m holding out for warm weather and flip flops. Please please please.
