I like to remember the good.

Today was about roasting a chicken, keeping my sanity and dealing with a grumpy sick kid.
There were moments that were low and exhausting and there were also good moments.

I made time to tidy up my eyebrows, take a bath whilst reading some Julia Child (and have no one bother me) and then I moisturized my face. This may not seem like much in the grand scheme of things but it was nice to hide out in my bedroom and bath and not have someone attached to me or whine at me for a little bit. Did a lot to improve my sanity.

I am now making a ton of chicken stock, the kitchen is pretty darn tidy and now I will read a book.

My mom used to hide in the bathroom when we were little. It took me a long time to realize she was just reading in there, not actually, you know, going to the bathroom. I'm glad you're getting some time to yourself! Your kids are freaking adorable, but I know they must also be exhausting.

Hee.
Smart Mom.
Right now it is extra exhausting as one has a continuous running nose and the other is now coming down with something and I feel like hell. GOOD TIMES!
