Julie planned to paint our 2nd floor bathroom today. After morning yoga, I convinced her that maybe we should just stop. S-T-O-P. Julie couldn’t spell stop if I spotted her S-T-O. But the possibility of brunch at Mendocino Grill got her attention, and even though it was closed on Sundays, we took a long afternoon nap instead.
I wanted to remind her that she’s not just Mommy Milk Truck, so some snappy light blue Puma kicks, her favorite kind of dress (halter), a femmy little sweater got her very excited. We went out to dinner that night to fall off the preggie wagon—her first sushi and sake in over 10 months.
