Jan. 8th, 2018 10:08 pmThis weekend was super cold so we didn't venture out. At 7F (-14C), as high, we didn't even take Tanya to her dance class. Instead it was a nice quiet weekend at home.
I made meatloaf on Saturday from ground beef. I prefer turkey but it was in my freezer and I needed to use it. Because there was 2 lb of ground beef, I used half on meatloaf on Saturday and made the rest into wontons on Sunday to put in the freezer for later meals. I also made soup for the girls on Sunday morning (we gave Olivia 1oz of that soup, with chicken in it, yesterday for the first time), and some elbow pasta in the afternoon. It was very nice to cook after so long.
Bear and I also managed to watch Wonder Woman in two evenings. I liked it. It wasn't the best movie ever but definitely best DC one. The plot was a lot tighter than many othet DC movies. Kid Diana was adorable and I liked the emotional journey the character was on. Plus, nice fighting skills.
I also watched a little Golden Globes, on and off as I did other things in the evening. Bear drove Tanya to my parents on Sunday evening for 24 hours becuase he had to take Olivia to the doctor this morning and this way my Mom wouldn't have to come out for the day. So after I put Olivia to bed there was a bit more free time and it felt pretty nice to just have the TV on.
Today at work, I had to go to a meeting with Big Boss about project delivery. Since I'm in change of updating the database for our group, I got invited. Cardan went too and we sat in the middle of the table, not realizing that Big Boss would sit right across from us. He asked us to introduce ourselves. My Boss and Assistant Boss and some other people I knew were at the meeting and we mainly talked about projects they want to register with comptroller by June 30, the end of fiscal year. One of our projects came up, the one I'm doing cost comparison for, so I talked about that project and how we will certainly prioritize it. After the meeting, Boss complimented me for doing well and later on she stopped by my desk to specifically tell me that Big Boss commented that I did well in that meeting, so that cheered me up for sure.
Olivia just woke up again. Last couple of nights she seems to have trouble sleeping. Her nose sounds a little stuffy, maybe that's bothering her. I hope she sleeps better tonight. Last night I ended up holding her after 4 40, so she could sleep some more.
