A good thing about newborns is that there is always something to do. There is no long dull afternoon. There are no moments to fill. Nothing. Time slips through your fingers. Suddenly you realize you haven't finished that project...you have to pick up the kids...laundry can no longer wait. I get to blog only because I can type one-handed while nursing. Otherwise, there would be no way I could indulge this compulsion, not with naps I have to take and beds I have to make and errands here and dishes there (would you could you in a box? Would you could you with a fox?).
I am very very tired.
In fact, Mike is home a few minutes early and it's time he held this baby--he didn't wake up 5 times last night, for instance.
But that's beside the point. The point is that I will not run out of things that need to be done (or that I want to do) for many, many weeks.

I've never made one before.
It's Mardi Gras, at least for a little while longer, and I lived in
Houston, which is close enough to East Texas and Louisiana ...

Babies certainly do their share of stealing our time. And our hearts!
I am impressed with the one-handed typing.
no. you won't run out of things to do. But sadly, we do run out of newborns to hold.
Hope that little feller gets his act together soon. How's the nursing going?
I'm amazed that a one-handed typist can be bothered typing (and I'm going to try it now) "would you could you in a box? Would you could you with a fox?"
I cheated on the question/quotation marks and used two hands, and I'm fed up with one handed typing already.
Whaddya tryin to do, scare me away? Too late for that--mancub arrives Friday and there's no turning back.
But thanks for the friendly warning. I'll be switching back to regular coffee.
