Our little grandson MIGHT be an OWEN or an ELLIOTT. I love both names! Owen was my correct guess -- the name is rapidly gaining popularity. I also knew they leaned toward vowel names (so do I).
Maybe even Owen Elliott. I can't wait to meet this little guy. I call him blueberry because he was the size of a blueberry in his first picture. He's now the size of a lemon. Growing like crazy. Our DIL has the start of a bump and looks adorable.
We chatted a bit about our the trip to Ireland with my youngest and his GF. I'm excited for this trip.
We played Code Names. Fun, easy-to-learn game but when I was in the "hot seat," hubby wasn't nice to me. He gave me a sideways sorry at the end of the night. This sometimes happens when we're with the kids. He puts me down and calls it teasing. It hasn't happened in a while so I thought it was over. I know this is about him and not me, but I don't like it. Not sure how to handle it yet. The kids noticed and that feels even more upsetting.
The only other bummer of the evening was the corn was full of worms and rot -- all dozen ears. Dang. I made roasted veggies instead.
The library book is still in transit so I decided to start another book. It's not horribly long so I should finish it in a couple of days at most. Descendants of Watson and Holmes are in a boarding school together and a classmate is found dead. They're both suspects. It's YA and it'll read fast.
Today is low-key Monday. I'm using it as a mental health day -- not the kind where I sit on the sofa and feed my face, but the kind where I remind myself of my FS stuff. My mind has been straying lately. It's like I'm forgetting how to be her. Back to some basics for the good of the order :)
Hubby is going to Asheville Tuesday-Friday. I'm looking forward to time alone, as I do. He says he's going and says he's staying all week, but he's prone to changing his mind. Fingers crossed.
As far as the rest of the week, it's also pretty low-key. Coaching call, a hike, dentist appointment, shingles vaccine #2. I don't have any social stuff with actual friends. That feels okay to me. I want to spend some fun time with myself. I need to figure out some things to add to the week. I wish I were going to Asheville hah! The reason I'm not is because of the appointments and we have the cleaning crew this week too. Planning some fun is part of my mental health day. Adding fun is one of the FS things I forget to do. The good news is my definition of fun is quite low so I don't need to find a glam event to make the week nice.
Hope you're in a good position to begin a fresh week. Have a good Monday. Later gators.
