. . .

meh. i’m feeling a little poorly and unbelievably exhausted; ready to climb into bed and sleep it off.
first, though…a list!

[random list: things that make me happy on a poorly day]

~ tapioca pudding
~ hot tea served in a pretty porcelain cup with a spot of milk
~ emma going to bed right on time, but not before saying “mom, i want to snuggle you!” and giving me a perfect kiss and hug
~ crisp clean sheets
~ perfect quiet but for the sound of the fountain outside our window
~ the way Bear indulges my request for ramen noodles, and magically makes them taste like gourmet fare
~ a long hot bath and a good playlist
~ finding my perfect sleep position as soon as i climb into bed, and not having to toss and turn at all

[be back tomorrow, surely feeling better and most definitely with more stories to tell...]
