Hello, 2011.

This new year has started off without a bit of fanfare from the B house. We didn't do anything spectacular last night at Midnight. J had just come to bed, and I was trying with every fiber of my being to fall asleep. And we didn't even eat black eyed peas today, gasp! My family always says we have to eat them on January 1, but I don't even remember why. Luck? Prosperity? Who knows.

My girls were up my butt today. And I could have done without that. I love the little monkeys, but some days I feel like I need extra room to breath. Thankfully, J was trying really hard to be an awesome hubby and daddy, so I got that extra room.

Don't get me wrong, I have the coolest kids on the planet. I think the lack of sleep is getting to me, though. Yeah, in case you were wondering, still not sleeping great. But I have high hopes for tonight!

I read a book today called Blood fever, second book in a series. Yes, I read the whole book today. It was good, and weird, and had just enough Celtic lore to keep me from calling it too out there. In the book, which takes place in Dublin, there are all these creepers and magic and such. But I still found myself wishing I was in Ireland!

I had a good day. I did nothing, I didn't even shower until after 4. Ew, I know, but I was just that lazy today. Even though I was a crappy mom, my girls were awesome to me. And the husband was pretty great today. You know, there are days when your spouse drives you absolutely insane. Today, he reminded me why I love him! He was just a great guy. He IS a great guy, but today he hit me with the full force of his awesomeness. He didn't cure cancer or write me a love song. He just was.
