Today I decided a little “me” time was in order so I ran a couple of errands solo. I ran to the fabric store to get a few things and then I ran to Walmart. I got some popcorn chicken and some King’s Hawaiian rolls and sat in the Subway that is inside of Walmart and had a quiet little lunch all by my lonesome. It was nice but it made me realize that I am a social butterfly. I love having lunch with a good friend, with my daughter or with my husband.

I got my eyebrows waxed and then walked over to the birthday party section of the store. I browsed, just thinking about Zoey’s upcoming first birthday (still a few months away, but never too early to start looking!) and out of nowhere I started thinking about Fran, Micah, Dani and poor little Max. Max (who I previously wrote about here) was laid to rest today and they were on my mind all day. I started crying right there in Walmart, just thinking about how baby Max isn’t going to experience a first birthday, he isn’t going to get to eat cake and rub it in his hair. Life just isn’t fair.

I wrapped my shopping up at that point because I got really depressed. Came home and saw Zoey crawl for the very first time! I immediately got to work on my sewing machine and sewed Zoey two taggie blankets. One is flannel with minky on the back and the other is flannel with fleece on the back.

Well, I better run.. Got a grumpy little peanut. It’s 10 PM and she is a very sleepy little girl.
