Cliff notes.

Actual paragraphs are far beyond my abilities right now, so a list it is!

1. My dad is still not doing well and will most likely not recover. My mother & siblings are hot messes.

2. Can't stand my husband lately. Many reasons, none of them new.

3. Baby is no longer a baby, is officially into Everything, driving me nuts, and slowly weaning.

4. I keep waiting for Little Boy and Little Girl to reach an age where they're less "challenging" (read: annoying). Evidently four and a half is not that age.

5. I still have horrible eczema on my face. Allergy testing revealed I'm allergic to...(wait for it) nothing. I look awful.

6. I have wonderful friends. That I never see.

7. For whatever reason, I am really enjoying winter. I'm never cold, we've had snow, and it's been wonderful.Very odd for me, but I'm not complaining.

8. My meds are still keeping me pretty numb. I love it. I'd be happy to never have another intense feeling for the rest of my life. I've already had my fill.

9. We got a piano! Needs tuning, but looks great. I've been trying to pick out melodies with some simple sheet music, will someday take a lesson or two.

10. Our holidays were pretty good. Surprising, considering they included a buttload of travel. All went well. Everything would have been lovely were it not for the health of both my father and father-in-law.

And that's all I'm gonna say about that right now.
