Happy New Year and Stuff

So that's nice. Oh, is it 2008? Ah. Well, you see... yours truly conked out just before midnight while feeding the baby. R woke me up and midnight and I drug myself off to bed. My normal sleep schedule is bed at 11, wake with the baby at 12:30, sleep, wake with the baby at 3, sleep, wake up for work and feed the baby at 5. So midnight was a little too late for me. Although we slept until 8! AM! on New Year's Day. HOORAY!!!

Peanut is into EVERYTHING now. So I spent New Year's Day trying to make our house just a little more childfriendly. There aren't Elmo posters on the wall, but I swept up most of the broken hypodermics and rat droppings. Our living room has basically devolved into the play room anyhow, but we managed to rearrange so R has somewhere to keep his computer other than the couch. Peanut enjoys smacking expensive electronics, vomitting on stuff, and eating leftover pine needles from the Christmas tree. Oh, and chasing kitties. (They LOVE that, by the way, and have developed these incredibly sad meows that seem to say, "But WHY mom, WHY? What did I do to deserve this!"- to which the reply is "Years of cleaning cat yarck off of EVERYTHING" But anyway....)

So I don't really have any major resolutions. I'm going to take one class online this semester to see how I manage. I'm also going to try to write more. Maybe next year I'll try to send stuff out again. I haven't been feeling super confident about writing lately. I have been thinking about a story recently though.

I want to just, I don't know, try harder this year. So we'll just see, I guess.
