ruminations & rambles.

(posted on Thursday, January 7 by eii wyy nae.)

this morning i woke up with an intense sore throat & head pounding with aches & a body that just wanted to lay still. usually a flu creeps up on me but this one was so sudden. my first thought was that boho boy had a lot of work to do today & baybee cee is feeling tender with teeth that are cutting through his gums & oh my ... how am i going to be present for them when i feel this way.

when maaa first laid eyes on me this morning, she knew it was bad ... so she dropped all of her other priorities & gave us so much love all day. she bundled us up in the car & we picked up immune boosting goodies. then maaa asked me what i wanted that wouldn't so much help heal my body but heal my soul & i said, "bread sticks.". she smiled huge.

i've always wanted warm, melt in your mouth, garlic salted bread sticks. ji jae made me gluten free ones during last christmas eve. it was pure heaven. pure melt in your mouth, crispy on the outside, moist on the inside, buttery, garlic~y heaven. he also made us some fresh veggie juice, heated up some soup, put blankets on me & all was good & ready for two star trek films. yep, the new star trek film made me curious about the old ones & you know this is a major turn on for me. he had no idea when he met me that i would someday be this into sci fi stuff. it was fun to giggle at the old outfits & hair do's that were supposed to be future~like but were oh so 70's.

awesome. medicine for my soul. maaa cuddled us good today. she too was in the mood to chill. so this was our day. the fifth day of the year. despite my whole body feeling achy, my heart was full of so much love for my fam~fam. it still felt like a celebration. it offered the chance to slow down & cuddle & yum all over each other.

oh & did i mention i loved the bread sticks & when i told ji jae it was the best bread i've ever had, he looked so totally proud of himself. it made me want to dip him in garlic~y salt too & eat him up. oh & of course who could forget the garlic. yum. ops. i drooled a little bit on the lappy at the mention of gluten~free breadsticks. & i’m wishing all of you sweet simple moments of celebration.
