well, hello there.

Filed under: love, vancouver — meg @ 1:19 pm

Dear everyone,

It’s Saturday. Mmmm.

Last night, I turned on the fireplace and lay down on the couch around 6:30 p.m.

I hadn’t had coffee ALL DAY.

Whoa.

Then, apparently, I fell asleep.

I woke up at 11:30 pm, which is about five hours, and approximately the standard amount of time I can usually manage to slumber overnight.

But this didn’t stop me… no way.

I went to bed.

And slept until 8 am.

Then I got up, had a glass of water, brushed my teeth, checked my email, texted, and…

… went back to bed.

Until 11 am.

THAT IS THE BEST USE OF 17 hours EVER.

My body had been ill and crashy all week, with my iron, blood sugar and hydration levels out of whack. It needed to just… go down.

AND I CANNOT TELL YOU HOW GOOD I FEEL RIGHT NOW.

**small interruption**

Cath was just heading out the door to see a friend and her baby, and our neighbours came out with their baby. We got to hold the baby! Wait, that deserves caps. WE GOT TO HOLD THE BABY.

Presley is gorgeous! WAHOO! And in pink. With sticky-uppy hair.

**end of transmission**

We’ve already walked to the Green Circle of Love this morning, so I’m covered for caffeine for the day. Maybe. See how much I’ve accomplished?

Now, I’m going to shop for persimmons and pomegranates and reorganize my life and do things and stuff that further appeal to my OCD/latent health nut tendencies.

And maybe sleep some more. WAHOO!

Hope everyone has such sparkling, sunny fall weather today. Orange leaves blew in our faces on our way back from The Circle and we stopped and shrieked at the goodness of it all.

XOXO,

Meg
