Sometimes

Sometimes I read a blog post and just tear up, the writing is so beautiful. Thank you, Elise, thank you.

Today is cold and snowy- the first of many here in Utah. I have crashed on the couch in my very well loved eggplant snuggie and am coasting out the afternoon while Declan naps.

He's been sick lately- fever, runny nose, cough, sore throat. Poor little guy. Maybe he got it from nursery. Maybe the kids brought it home. I'm not sure. He sure hates the Tylenol I give hem. He lets it pool in his mouth and then spits it right out. Oh, sweet little one. Here's a picture of him in the first snow fall this Fall. I was trying to get him to look at me instead of the snow and he was not having it! 

In other news, I am on a new medicine instead of lithium. It's called Latuda. What kind of name is that? It's just a weird funky name. It's a new drug and it's safer to use during any possible future baby in utero events. My afternoon blues have completely disappeared but I can't tell if I'm just on a happy swing of my mood swing pendulum or if it's the Latuda (seriously- who thought of that?). 

I'm waiting it out. On the couch. In my grape snuggie.
