Got up to make John's lunch today after 3 hours of sleep. We always go to bed at a decent enough hour, but like last night stay up talking until 1 a.m. and the alarm goes off at 530 a.m. every day! I adore the communication, I love the fact I can hear his voice through his chest as I am laying on it, but man, it takes me longer to get going on such shortened sleep!
After doing a house cleaning, I walked to Fred Meyer to get some Comet and some butter. Being new the neighborhood, I got lost on the way turning a 1.4 mile walk into a 3.1 mile one. Unfortunately, most streets in Vancouver are not through streets, so the grid pattern I was so used to in Portland really can make walking and driving here a headache. So my plans on making cookies were thrown out the window as by the time I got home, I had to start making dinner. I made Chicken and Wild Rice with corn for dinner-something basic.
We snuggled on the couch last night, my head on his chest, my legs and hips on his lap. I was so content I was nearly asleep listening to him talk and being held so tightly and lovingly. I really appreciate nights like that and the time we spend just talking.
I am holding my own on the scale at 160 lbs, just five more pounds to lose, and that will come when I start walking again on intentional walks (unlike today), which I can do now that we are settled and moved in.
