i can feel it already...cabin fever. i need to get out. adeline needs to get out. but there's no hope! today is the warmest day of the week at a balmy high 20-something degrees. we have snow, but it's going to be so cold that adeline shouldn't be out in it, lest her face freeze in a permanent smile. the mall is just a few miles away, but then i have to actually get out of the car with the two little ones...again, afraid they will freeze. or maybe i'm just afraid i will freeze.
i can see the rest of the week in my mind: get up, breakfast, wes leaves for work, watch veggie tales, look out the window, feed millie...etc etc etc. i already have most of the one veggie tales movie memorized. i'm so happy addy is finally watching tv for longer than 1 minute. but the same one? over & over? i find myself being elated if she says yes to my suggestion to watch 'miffy'. sad state of affairs.
on a happier note, i just read in my (new) health magazine that thinking about chocolate helps women overcome stressful & painful situations. so i will now concentrate on chocolate. chocolate fountain (reyes style....all from boise will know what i'm talking about; salivate now!). truffles. dark chocolate. real hot chocolate (with whipped cream). i don't quite feel better now, but i do feel like migrating to my kitchen in search of some chocolate.
maybe i will make it to the mall today. it's the last day before the extreme cold sets in. wes isn't coming home for lunch today or thursday...addy will not take a nap if she doesn't get her move on... i can't do this for 3 1/2 more days! ah, me. when is january over? i really don't mind winter & i LOVE snow, but i can't handle the zero degree weather. can't we just have feet & feet of snow with 30 degrees?
i think i should do a 'Lost' countdown. 8 days until 'lost' is back. i have been looking forward to this since early pregnancy #2.
EDIT: wes just called. it took him forever to get just a mile down the road. traffic backed up to turn onto polaris & at a standstill. he recommends not going anywhere for awhile. emotional distress! "ghiradelli chocolate chips, chocolate covered pretzels, chocolate fondue w/ strawberries, chocolate cake..."
