So Maddy and I aren't going anywhere today! Between yesterday and today we had a good quarter inch of ice coat all the surfaces around here. Somehow the sidewalks and roads seem to be pretty ok. But our stoop, the trees, grass and cars are just covered.
So it's been a lot of hanging out today! I don't mind one bit. It's nice to do nothing now and again. We've been keeping busy with Maddy's first two issues of Highlights Magazine. We've read the stories, made some of the crafts and have done a few puzzles. She seems to really enjoy them.
I did get her to eat peanut butter and jelly for the first time today, together. She's been off peanut butter for a while now, but today she liked it again. But she wanted jelly. However, she got really mad/disappointed when I put it on bread and tried to get her to eat it. So I mixed a little of both together in a bowl for her. She seems to like that better. At least she ate something!
I've been enjoying my new tea. However, my carpet in my bedroom doesn't seem to enjoy my new tea as much. Last night Maddy got ahold of my cup and was bringing it to me. It was a full cup of tea, fortunately, not that hot anymore. But as she brought it to me it was dripping and splashing all over the place. I told her to stop and at that point she dropped it out of her hands. Sigh... cleaned up that mess before bath/bed.
Matt worked late last night and I could really tell. Maddy was squirrely from 6 o'clock on. But she did well, listened for the most part and didn't give me any fuss going to bed. That was good since I still wanted to get my workout in!
Alrighty, have a good one, everyone! Have a happy valentine's day tomorrow!
Tea of the day: I had coffee first thing this morning, but have had herbal tea the rest of the day. Boy it's fun trying new stuff!
