Our Little Geekling

(Stealing this layout from K because I can think of lots of love/hate things right now. Well, and because K is awesome and I want to be just like her. But that’s a given.)

Love: Eriana holds her harmonica up to her mouth and hums because she can’t make it work.
Hate: It is so freaking hot outside that I don’t want to go anywhere ever, which really puts a damper on entertaining a toddler.

Love: We got Eriana signed up for gymnastics (finally) and she starts on August 29th.
Hate: I was motivated to do so when she stood ON THE ARM OF THE COUCH yesterday. No fear, that kid.

Love: I am going out to dinner with some friends tonight and I’m pretty excited, even though I don’t know many of the women well.
Hate: My social anxiety about dinner is starting to build.

Love: My sweet girl slept in until 7 today.
Hate: It was already too hot to run this morning at 6, so I didn’t go.

Love: Jim has been getting off early most of this week, and it’s really nice to have him home around 5-5:30 instead of 6:30.
Hate: There are wildfires all over Oklahoma today.

Love:  My online friendships are really growing these days.
Hate: My IRL friendships are sort of stagnant because people are busy/too hot/broke. I feel pretty lonely a lot.

Love: My dad gave us his old bed frame/armoire and we get to bring it home tomorrow.
Hate: We will probably have to sell our antique Japanese dressers because they won’t fit with the new furniture.

Love: I’m really enjoying the books I’ve been and am currently reading.
Hate: I chose a book I bought over a library book and all of my lends are expiring soon.

Love: Sweet tea (sweetened with honey!).
Hate: That I have to pee a lot when I drink a pitcher a day.

Love: That Eriana had such a great day for the last two days (Wednesday was DIFFICULT).
Hate: That she’s in the throes of toddlerdom that include a lot of tantrums, unrealistic desires for independence, and a lot of bipolar baby.

She’s got her purse and she’s ready to go!
