Things that are good:

I'm meeting with my boss to discuss my work projects and my raise...

I got an invitation for a 2nd Interview from a prestigious, well-known national non profit. Fingers xed.

Beanie lets me chase her. She crawls to outlawed things like electrical cords, and I say "No! Beanie! No!" and she laughs and starts going faster towards these things, and I scoop her up and put her elsewhere, or I crawl after her. I'm trying to make it so when I say "I'm gonna git you!" she will laugh hysterically and try to "run away". So far, it's only when she's doing something not so smart, so I need to make that less of a "game" and make the "game" part the whole "crawling away/come get me" thing. It's really adorable.

Beanie ate big people chicken last night and pasta. I smooshed it up a bit and fed it to her with my fingers, but she loves protein and pasta. I don't know what I'm going to do with all the little jars of spinach I bought...maybe make dipping sauce?

Beanie slept through the night once I took her to bed with me. At first she was lullingly upset, sort of not quite asleep, but not hungry, and PF was marching her around the living room at 1 AM. I went out and got her and she fell asleep with me. She rarely does that. It was so precious.

Things that are bad:

I really need my medical coverage to start now. My short term hospital only policy ended on Friday. I need info on my new PPO stat.

I have had about 40 phone interviews with Polish kids today, one guy flirted with me and made me super uncomfy.

I feel bloated. And headachey/neck achey.

I had a major headache yesterday and only when I was getting ready for bed did I realize much of my pain was from my sore sunburn from standing outside much of the early afternoon. Beanie, with her melanin, thankfully did not have even a blush of pink.

I hate the sun.

Well, I love it and I hate it. I hate that it burns my skin in 30 seconds flat. I hate that it hurts my eyes and gives me floaters. However, I am really loving how warm it is. I could use it now as someone's blasting the AC here at work and there's an actual breeze.

I also like how the sun kisses my kid. I love the way my daughter looks sitting on my hip with the sun glinting on her eyes. She looks like she's quietly reveling in the summertime of it all.

Ah, Beanie. I'm gonna git you...
