Well now...that little burst of blogging energy fell right off, didn't it? Let's try that again. I'll start by thanking everyone for their ideas both here and offline on how to manage the new-mom-crazies. I would most especially like to thank all of you who by your suggestions imply that I might be even a wee bit anal about the housecleaning and that I should let it go. It's the first time in my life that anyone has implied that sort of thing. I think maybe I love you.
What I DID do was to take some of the suggestions to heart, and I also started carving some time out for myself (read: neglecting some more chores) on Fridays during nap time, which is making a big difference. For instance, I did this over a couple of nap sessions:
Spunky Club July 08
Fiber: Romney
Colorway: Eclipse
I've really missed the spinning, a LOT, and this was a lovely way to jump back in. I always love Amy's fiber explorations and this was no exception.
Then came a week of travel to visit G'ma and the old stomping grounds, and after that, the two weeks book-ended by having some friend into town on one end, and Rhinebeck on the other. I'm sorry to say that I don't have the time to do a proper Rhinebeck post tonight - it's already WAY past my bedtime - but I should have time to pull the pics out of my camera in the next day or two. I'll still be the last person out there to do the Rhinebeck Roundup, but then, what else is new?
What? Oh, you say you want MORE random pics of my kid for no good reason? Cool. I can do that.
