1. I just did the first of two loads of laundry. In it were three pairs of (Pedro’s) sweatpants, three (of Pedro’s) t-shirts, a ton of underwear and socks and (my) tights. We are, apparently, pretty casual these days.
2. I took inventory as I was in the basement laundry room: two 40-lb. bags of dog food, two cases of Shin Ramyun (20 packages each), two cases of instant udon. This is high cuisine!
3. In t-minus six days, we leave for Orlando. Why Orlando? We are not going to Disneyworld, nor are we going for its culinary inspirations (are there any?). We are going because it will be warmer than Chicago. It will, right?
4. Sosie has worn a little Beibei backpack all day. She has to wear her jacket over it. She wore it through her gym class. She has not taken it off. Hopefully it is not full of bricks.
5. A fellow mom told me she got angry at her husband this morning for feeding their toddler son Cinnamon Toast Crunch. I told her it was a good thing I was not married to her because Sosie got 1.5 bowls of ice cream for breakfast.
