5:30 AM // My phone alarm went off softly and I hit snooze. Anders was already snuggled between Jason and I since 4AM. Slow morning feel. I got up and crawled into Anders's empty bed to check my email, Instagram and Facebook accounts. Typically I try to just get up and get going, but again, slow morning feel.
5:40 AM // Turn on our closet light to softly light the room so I can start getting ready.
5:43 AM // Check the weather as I try to decide what to wear.
5:54 AM // Anders wakes up, comes to me as I get ready. He is sleepy. He asks me to make him rice. Very strange request. I put him back in our bed and turn on The Lion Guard.
6:30 AM // I leave the house. Stop at McDonald's for an iced coffee as I make my way to the train station.
7:00 AM // Catch the train to work.
7:22 AM // Walk into my messy office.
Day is full of meetings and working on my team's annual performance reviews. Leftovers for lunch at my desk. The day feels good.
3:30 PM // We leave the office early to go to a coworker's Goodbye Happy Hour.
5:00 PM // Catch the train home.
5:55 PM // Home starting dinner. Going through the mail. Reading about Anders's day at school on his daily recap. He has a belly ache.
6:15 PM // Eating dinner. Chicken and rice for him, chicken salads for us.
6:35 PM // Blue eats dinner too.
7:05 PM // Relaxing bath for me while I watch AYITM photo critique.
7:15 PM // Conversations on how we will cover the next day if Anders is sick. His belly is still hurting.
7:30 PM // PJs on. Thirty mins of the Lego movie in our bed. Fluids.
8:15 PM // Lights out early. I'm exhausted tonight.
