This week's new recipe was a "sausage" muffin recipe-turkey sausage. It's apparently "meh"-I don't care for that kind of thing so I bake them for Cayne and Naomi to have for breakfast. I did like the generic muffin recipe though...I think I'll try it again with different add-ins...maybe apple-cheddar muffins. I did cook a bunch of stuff yesterday though-I am spectacularly unmotivated to bother with dinner when it's just me, so cooking a bunch of stuff that can be grabbed and heated tends to be a good idea.

Naomi and I are mostly solo for the next couple of months-it's Alpha, so it's all me from right after breakfast until he gets home...and usually breakfast and bedtime are his; he doesn't get to spend much time with Nacho otherwise. It's challenging-I really appreciate what Cayne does with her, and I think they really have a great relationship as a result, but it also means that when he works late, I probably feel it more.

We have a busy week, too-a trip to Target needs to happen, I have two doctor's appointments (acupuncture and an appointment with the OB who delivered Naomi) and a birthday party. I must also acquire or create a fabulous hat for Susie-Paloza, which starts on Friday...it's a 3-day celebration of my friend Su's 40th birthday...karaoke on Friday (which I'll probably miss because Cayne's working late) a tea party (which is what I need the hat for) and barbecue on Saturday (which I'll attend) and Disney on Sunday (haven't decided yet.) It's a lot of time away from Naomi and from Cayne, and I'm not sure I want that.

Life here, not too exciting-biggest thrill here is that we got a cancellation notice from our homeowner's insurance company. We have an FHA loan that requires us to put money in escrow to pay our taxes and insurance-not ideal but it simplifies things. So I got the bill a little while ago, and put it aside, assuming that the bank would pay it. Then, when I picked up the mail on Friday night, there was a cancellation notice, effective February 3rd, unless the insurance company got the money before then. Seems we slipped through the cracks and the bank forgot to pay our insurance company. It seems to be straightened out-we'll know more on Friday and worst case scenario, I'll drive up to the insurance agent's office and hand deliver the check on Monday. Just frustrating.

And a cute Naomi story, just because...

We went to dinner on Friday night with my in-laws-we went for Italian food. We ordered something for Naomi to pick at, and I ordered some kind of farfalle, and Cayne ordered some fettuccine alfredo. She was a bit fussy so he was eating with her in his lap and eating her dinner. I suggested he give her one of his noodles and so he did. She ate it with gusto, stuck her hand in his plate and proceeded to grab handful after handful of his dinner-apparently it was better than hers. Next time, perhaps we'll order a plate for her.
