unexpected holiday

[verbicide]

I couldn't sleep last night. It happens sometimes. I go to bed, read a bit, turn off the light, and my eyes just stay wide open. By the time I realize it, it's too late to take anything for it.

So, this morning, I slept in and decided to take today off. And, since Monday is a holiday, I decided to take Friday off too. It's very, very liberating.

I'm in the midst of the big house reorg, and also the cake trio for Saturday. I didn't absolutely need the extra time, but it's gonna help!

First stop today: cake supply store
Next stop: Fred Meyer, where Sarah says they have great org container stuff
Finally: Happy Hour sushi with Sarah and Neelz! Whee!

The rest of the cake schedule is as planned---make cupcakes and fillings tomorrow, frostings on Saturday morning, assembly and decoration for the rest of the day until the party.

Also, I would very much like for it to stop raining! Though have I mentioned how much I freaking love my new boots? I make everyone who comes near me put their legs in them. LOVE!!

YES, BOOTS! I AM A BROKEN RECORD.

Err. Also! I finally figured out a way to make ME sleep: the litany I repeat to my damn kid when she is supposed to be sleeping but isn't. Hmmm. Maybe you should borrow your nephew and experiment, I swear my sleep has gotten so much better since I started chanting "mom is sleeping, dad is sleeping, baby is sleeping, zzzzzz..." to my spawn.

Boots! I am a broken record about them also!!

And hrm. While I'm sure hanging out with my neffy-poo would sack me out totally, I'm not sure that's an entirely practical solution for me! *grin*

Yay for unplanned, glorious days off!! You could use the time given the grand party prep, too.

And for new boots. Shash has been doing the same with hers, so it's apparently a trend. :)
