Sanity Saving

Sorry peeps.  I just don't have a lot of blog brilliance for you this week.  I am feeling a tad worked over.  I had a big allergy attack the other day, took too much medicine to fight it, and have felt kind of woozy and queasy ever since.  I miss the husband.  I have a big event at work this week.  We have to pack up most of our worldly possessions this weekend and that feels somewhat daunting.  I am tired of eating the dregs of the freezer.  I need a nap.  In this state, you can either go to the bad place, or focus on the positive.  I choose the latter, as among all these pitfalls to my week, there are so many things saving my sanity for which I am incredibly grateful.  Namely:

A perfect latte this morning (and how cool is this latte art?)

My mother-in-law, who has come to our rescue this week and is single-handedly keeping Baby J happy and me calm, cool and collected.  Thank you, MIL!

 She also has gotten me a supply of quality vino and Shelburne Farms Cheddar which combine to make a great stress reliever.

I am also grateful for the sunshine.  Even when it is 20 degrees out, if that bright ball is lighting up the sky, life just seems more manageable, doesn't it?

In my ideal world I would end this day by:

Getting a massage

Taking a really long bath

And ordering too much sushi

Alas, I will be working till late this evening, but at least I have my wing women to keep me company.  Sometimes, it is the little things that make all the difference.
