Guilty pleasures

November 7, 2007 by Aoife

I finally figured out why I should buy my lentils from the international grocery store: they don’t have the skins on. My WalFart lentils are all covered with skin… I didn’t know they were such a pretty yellow underneath! We lentil soup for dinner tonight… perfect for this cold weather. Not so guilty. Yet. We have yet to see Ye Olde Temperamental Intestine thinks of it.
Not so perfect for cold weather, but a comfort food, nonetheless, is Homemade Cherry Cordial ice cream. Homemade is a brand here in Indiana… not me being the Happy Homemaker. Too bad my nose is so stoppered up that it doesn’t even taste like much.
Silver Jewelry Club.
Dr. Pepper/Diet DP mix.
Rereading books. I have an entire shelf of keepers
Staying up late after I put Hamza to bed to websurf.
Napping on the couch during cartoons.
Online games.
Rusk Shampoo and Tigi S Factor Serious Conditioner. Will become much more guilty when I actually buy the stuff… that freaky but oh so wonderful conditioner is 28 smackers a pop.
Bath and Body Works Minute Manicure… or is it instant manicure. Its nice stuff. Feels so good.
Sushi.

No cold toes here!

November 6, 2007 by Aoife

I think our indian summer has finally come to an end. Its 43° F outside. Its been only a little warmer than that all day. I still wore my birkenstock sandals. Funny part was that my feet weren’t cold. The rest of me was!
What did I do wrong with my child? He’s snotty, talks back, can’t play by himself, is addicted to television (my fault, i’ll own that one), and is having daytime wetting problems. *sigh* the other half of the dynamic parenting duo thinks we aren’t been strict enough with the child. I am of two different opinions – one is getting really freaking pissed off (ha, an unintended pun!) because I can’t keep the kid clothed for an entire week because he pees in his pants. The other is worrying if its a medical problem and I will feel like an ass for getting mad about it.
Being the 95% caregiver for my son is wearing me out. I wish I had the patience and understanding and desire to just enjoy my son’s company. When he goes over to his father’s house, I don’t miss him. At all. I just feel so relieved and relaxed and I don’t look forward to him coming home.
I apologized to my stove tonight for almost blowing out the flame. It didn’t answer back, thank God. I felt a little silly about it at the time.
Hamza and I spent the afternoon with a friend of mine who lives in an assisted living facility. Seeing all these people, who probably had a life somewhere, reduced to living with a roommate in a room the size of my college dorm room feels so sad. It kills me that we can’t find ways to take care of these folks in our own families. I don’t know if I am oversimplifying because I don’t have this situation my too small, barely 2 generational family or if people just are too lazy or too busy to care for their own.
