Feeling Human Again

This morning I woke up on my own at a reasonable hour to get up without feeling like I am dragging myself out of bed because I had to get up and get Caroline off to school. First time in a while that I felt like this.

I am already half way through my second cup of coffee for the day so the brain knows that it has had caffeine so this may be random but the coffee has kicked in.

We met up with Ariel and her beau yesterday in Port Jefferson and had lunch. It was nice to see Ariel and catch up on things including when her graduate graduation is and where. Caroline was so happy to see Ariel. She misses her big sister.

Caroline also did cookie sales with her Girl Scout troop on Sunday. She is quite the little sales person.

Today is all about the laundry since I have almost two weeks worth to do at this point. I am down to my laundry day underwear.

Since the Jets announced they are giving Michael “It’s my culture and I didn’t know better” Vick, it is much easier for me to figure out which team I am cheering for here in New York. Hint it has a Manning as the QB. The sports talk shows have been all abuzz with discussion about this up here in New York. There are the apologists for Vick and the outraged at Vick. Personally this one is a no brainer for me and I am out of the Jets Nation. If this is their major move for the off season, I am thinking they aren’t going to do much during the season. There is no excuse for what he did to those poor animals.

I am asking for those who haven’t gotten to their DVRs yet, please talk about your reaction to not the event in the Good Wife that happened last night. My jaw dropped and I thought, ‘they can’t really be doing this.’ But they did and changed the dynamics of the show forever. Wow! I have been reading up on the why and thinking back on some other things that happened this season and the track work was there.

And then there was Once Upon a Time which is moving at a better pace this half of the season. Two new episodes in and I’m fully engaged in what is going on. Also the way they have things set up with who has memory and who doesn’t works for me. And then there is poor Rumple. Mad props to Robert Carlyle for creating yet another facet to an already fascinating character. And mad props to Rebecca Mader for creating such a delightfully evil character, which allows Lana Parrilla to yet again release her inner Evil Queen.

Welp onto to the mounds of laundry and some basic household gotstados.

I am grateful for waking up and not feeling like my head is full of cotton wool.
