• What: mall walk with Holly
• Distance: 1 mile

Mostly a decent week upon reflection. Some stressy bits, and light on exercise but all things considered...ok.

Waiting for Holly to show up. Haven't seen her in months so we planned a mall day today to visit, lunch and shop. She's on a Valentine's Day gift hunt for her boyfriend. I'm on a hunt for post-partum clothing that isn't going to fit weird or make me crazy while nursing. Paul's sleeping in with the kid and will babysit. Nice end to my week.

Ate really well this week -- nailed all my 5-A-Days. Killer salad last night with homemade pizza. The organic tomatoes in this week's basket -- to die for! Makes up for the organic oranges that are a bit blah compared to the non-organic tangerines I had previously.

Did well on the friend-making scene this week too. I'm pursuing friendhsips with 5 different moms/kiddies. I don't think I've ever tried to make that many friedns in one go, but when you social time is limited you shoot for efficiency. When one relationship is resting, I can be pursuing another. (Actually, I DID pursue that many relationships at once before. But that was dating. So that's different. )

Julia's fever and rash are gone and she now sports a top tooth. Add the two bottom teeth and she looks like a cheerful thug.

Completed week 5 of my allergy series! 5 more to go.

I'm done with the book for book group, so now I just have to write up my thoughts on it and discuss. Now I can face my books for church. We have new member class in March. Feels weird that I'll be ina class with Paul. Never did that before. can I cheat off his tests? Hahaha.

Never Ending Roof Saga. BLAAAAH! Just when I think I'm making progress... roofer came, we signed intent for work, went to deposit check, notorized permit paper junk... I come to realzie I need anothe signature from my MORTGAGE company. Why don't they send you a list of things to expect and what you will probably have to do? Insurance companies deal withthis stuff allt he time. It is their job. Me? I've never done this. And while this makes me ignorant, I'm not stupid. Give me directions and I can deal with it. But this ping-ponging from one thing to another and being told when something is wrong and not how to make it right.... frustrating as hell.

So... 6 ups, 2 downs. Not too shabby.
