Grey Days

Bonjour, mes amis! Trying to stay cheerful at the House of Fawn, despite the dreariness of the day. I walked Gretchen to daycare through the rain and slush this morning, barely a hint of morning, misty streets and droplets on the window. Now we have hints of snow again... the weather is confused, as it often is in our city. I swear we have the strangest climate.




This morning the little one had a bizarre, grumpy fit from 4.30am until 7am when I finally bribed her with some iPhone Netflix "Flankin" and enjoyed 22 minutes of silence as she rested her head on my pillow. She was in a mood this morning, that's for sure, but I have to admire her sticktoitiveness when she's really after something... in this case, one breast, then the other, wash rinse repeat for hours on end. Usually I don't mind her morning marathon nursing sessions, but this was getting a little out of hand. I think this is probably a sign that the chicken pox she's been exposed to might be making an appearance in the near future. Thank goodness! (Anyone for a Pox Party??)

Anyhow, time to tackle my list of to-dos for the day... get some writing done, worky work, drink more tea, finagle the kitchen back into working order, oh! And make soup in the crockpot. Yum, yum.

What are you up to today?
