The world
Starting to scope forsythia in the neighborhood, and cross streets to get to particularly rich crocus patches. Dwarf irises are coming out! And it turns out we have a few crocuses at our house, after all. Maybe even some in the front garden – hard to say what the little things stunted from leaf-darkness might become.
The kiddo
Eating. M&D&Gracie come in – MISERY! DESPAIR! And then, far too interested and excited to do anymore eating for another hour or more. Then remembers he is extremely hungry – why has food been kept from him?
Me
Worked so hard to keep the headache at bay. Water, ibuprofen, salty foods – all too late, today. Is it seasons changing? Being cold? Hunching like a horrible little goblin all the time? …. probably that last one has something to do with it.
