Random bits of a Sunday that doesn't feel like Sunday

~It doesn't feel like Sunday because I didn't go to church. For a priest that is a rare occurrence. I could've gone, would've liked to in some ways, but I stayed in bed late and then played with Baby J instead.

~I've been getting at least 8 hours of sleep every night, far more than I usually get, but I still feel exhausted by this time of day (early evening). Part of it is, I'm sure, the result of an introvert being with a houseful of people all the time--no matter how much I enjoy it, it's tiring. And part of it likely reflects how bone-weary the lead-up to Christmas had made me.

~It's been warm and rainy here, even in northern New England, yesterday and today and lots of snow has melted. Which I'm kind of sad about because it is always so pretty here when it is snowy. But I'm just as happy that it wasn't snowy for travel.

~NSLS and I went out for a while with Baby J while "the guys" (Mr. LS, the Kid, and Elder Son) watched football). We stopped by the mall to check out the 50% sale at Hallmark, and I remembered again how much I don't like malls. I love being downtown here, but the mall, not so much.

~My present for Mr. LS and NSLS was Rockband for their wii, so there has been much rocking on going on around here. I sort of bought it on a whim--they wanted wii fit, which was impossible to get. So when I saw Rockband, I pounced on it before it disappeared, not 100% sure it was a good choice. If the last couple of days are any indication, it was a good choice. I evn got into the act once, badly doing the singing part. (I'm quite sure I'd be hopeless on drums or guitar!)

~The Kid and I will be heading back home tomorrow. He still has a week off of school, but the rest of us have to go back to work--although I'm not planning on working too hard!
