My hubby's been so wonderful today!

Sleep deprivation has never worked well with me. I'm sure my parents and sister can vouch for that. I turn into Ms. Grumpy of the Universe. Not intentionally, I might add. The world just looks so much the worse when I'm tired.

Though I was quite sleep deprived all day today, my husband's been so sweet all day. I was up at 6 am, to nurse the munchkin, and out by 7:35 am. Got home from work around 11:50 am.

Hubby was out of bed. He had paid the bills. A dear friend called in distress, about a seemingly ill pet / child. I most happily went to the aid of my friend. Poor dear. Had just gotten home and nursed Isabella. Changed her diaper and out the door we went. Turns out the friend's little one is sick and with fever. But, I know what it's like to be paralyzed with fear with regard to the health of a dearly beloved pet/child. Had offered to drop hubby off at work, so I could have access to the car. He responded by saying he was fine walking to work.

Anyways, I ended up making a yummy dinner. A friend gave me some really fresh and scrumptuous cod. I cooked it in a soup with tomatoes, sour vegetable (can't think of a better name for the thing, so I did a direct translation), shittake mushrooms, tofu, and egg drizzle. Hubby and I ate the soup, served over rice.

When Hubby got home, he asked when I wanted to watch "Smallville." He left that decision to me. And then, Hubby put our little one to bed.

What am I doing now? Well, I should be writing some lectures, but I'm blogging and contemplating going to bed soon thereafter.
