One day at a time

Today was a much better day for me. I took control of several things that had been bugging me and as a result had a very productive day; I was able to lighten my work load for tomorrow by accomplishing several tasks today. :-)

Tonight, as soon as our little bedtime routine was finished, I gave Ryan a kiss and walked out. It only took about 10mins for him to fall asleep. He did get out of bed, but he didn't come out of his room. I am hoping that he will sleep well tonight. Last night he ended up sleeping with me because of the storms.

Those pesky molars are making his gums swell again, so I gave him some tylenol and also some allergy meds he needed. Maybe that will help him out. And now I remember that I forgot the anbesol...not good. Anyway, I am enjoying sitting on the couch in the dark, in the quite, typing.

I think that in some ways I am much like a child. I get overstimulated easily. Jake doesn't understand it. On the weekends, he will get up and turn on music first thing in the morning. Some mornings it drives me crazy! But, I try not to complain. He is a person that needs constant stimulation. (wow that sounds dirty! LOL!) Whether it be the ipod, the radio, the tv, or a movie, he has to have interaction. I, on the other hand, could go all day without any sound at all. To me it is wonderful to be in the quiet. I have enjoyed sitting on one of the sun porches at work lately for this very reason. I can crack the door to the outside, and listen to the wind chimes and the water fountain. Now that is awesome; Those are sounds I love. If I could find a CD of just those sounds, I would probably play it all the time!
Anyhow, In short, my day was good. Here's to a great tomorrow.
