Photo Week #45

This week went a lot better for me than last week - I tried to remind myself that I am the adult in the situation. I shouldn't put the burden on her to be responsible (yet)... Just need to remind myself to think about what is developmentally appropriate for her. And for myself! I am an adult! It is developmentally appropriate for me to be emotionally mature!

My brain is all kinds of mush today so forgive me if none if this makes sense. Still in the thick of nighttime potty training Junie, which has turned into taking her to the bathroom around 11pm, and that has limited the amount of accidents. Except she is still waking up in the middle of the night to either pee or just call out for me, and the broken up sleep is really getting to me - no longer caffeine free (sad). But as it gets colder and colder it is nice to have a warm drink in the mornings to warm me up.

In related news of being cold, I've been trying to fill out my wardrobe with warmer sweaters and comfy non-sweats pants so that I can try to look less sloppy when I pick Junie up from school and send her to dance. Trying to shop smartly and not keep anything that I don't absolutely love, and I think.. it's working? Really trying to remind myself that I don't need many more things. My closet is stuffed enough as it is! I wish I could get into thrifting but the hygiene of it all still icks me a bit. I also need to figure out what Junie needs for the winter season - lately she only wants to wear pants with pockets (and now has upped her desired pocket count from 1 to 4 because she saw me wear jeans with 4 pockets...)
