Friday

TGIF! Even though I have to go in to work tomorrow so I can get caught up on some grant writing, I'm so thrilled that it is Friday night. Is it just me, or does everyone feel this exhausted on Friday nights. It isn't like I ran a marathon (geesh, we all know that isn't true!!), so why do I always feel so tired? Sometimes I wonder if it has to do with the fact that I have to be so "on" throughout the entire week - I have to be nice, make small talk, know all the answers to other people's problems, etc. Maybe all that interaction with other people is what makes me so exhausted. Whatever it is, I'm definitely going to bed early tonight.

Caleb is darn funny. It started with him calling me at work when he got back home from his friend's house. It is something he is supposed to do, but he NEVER remembers, so this was the first sign. When I got home, Caleb's friends were also here - Jordan & Cora. Right away, he gave me a hug, asked how my day went and wanted to know if he could get me anything to drink. Very suspicious. After I bit, I told the crew that I was going to talk Cena for a walk. Caleb instantly volunteered for all three of them to go on a walk with me. Ok, stop right there! What 15 year old & his friends want to hang out with mom & talk the dog for a walk? So, after much pressing by me, he finally admitted that he wanted to borrow the car so he could drive Cora home. Poor kid, he'll never know this, but I would've let him use the car to do this anyway, even without all the niceness :).

Positive things about today

1. Seeing Caleb with his friend, Cora. There is much denial that he likes her, but they are so cute together! And, she is actually a nice girl, but that might be the problem...
2. Rachel Maddow - what a riot!
3. My dishwasher - need I say more

Healthy Living Update Today wasn't too bad. Cena & I went for a 10 minute walk and then I ate healthy for the majority of the day.
