Fresh start

... or something like it... 

I suppose I let the frustration get a firm grip last night, today I'm doing my best to shove it away (although it's diiiiifficult when being this tired...). Elli woke at 1.30 am, I was able to go back to bed at 4 am, then he woke again when Dan got up for work around 6.30 am, and has been awake since.
Are babies not supposed to sleep more?
I guess, with his inherited DNA, there is not much hope for him to sleep much - Dan being very energetic as a child, and me not wanting to sleep for more than 15 minutes a time. But still! I had hoped genes could skip a generation?

Right now I'm seated at our new, wonderful, comfortable kitchen table trying to drink a cup of coffee (not so hot anymore) and eat sweets. Yes, sweets. Fake energy FTW! ;-)

The day outside is grey, although beautiful - the snow covers all the colors and the sky is milky white - the world looks asleep, but the sounds from the nearby kindergarten and school shows that it's just another ordinary Monday. Monday, huh? Where did Mr Weekend go? You left us all too soon!

I've scheduled a meeting with my manager at work on Friday, to discuss timings (of when I'm due back). My role within the Innovation department has changed somewhat and does no longer include the Consumer Insights department - me likey! Having to assist both departments left me with a somewhat shallow feeling, there was no time to actually dig in deep into any of the departments. But now there will be! :-) Sometimes I long to go back to work - really liked it.

When I got to bed again at 4 this morning, and had just tucked myself in, one of our cats - Morris - came walking across the bed, purring and sniffing. He walked upto my head and buffed with his head against my hand, and then crawled in under the cover, laying down to rest against my belly. Such a warm and fuzzy feeling when your beloved little (or not so little haha) cat comes to give you support and comfort
