The nature of hormonal mood swings, I guess.

But any of these things might have made the difference:

 - I got enough sleep last night.  Leo only fussed three times.

 - I got up at 7 AM today, which is much more like my normal routine, and consequently Leo and I had an hour to ourselves this morning.

 - We went to the gym today and I walked around the track.  "It's a new PR!" said Mark when I reported my 16:39 mile.  ("A four-kids PR," he explained when I objected.)

 - I crammed myself into a pair of intermediately-sized jeans today.  Well, actually I crammed a set of Spanx into the jeans, but not before I crammed myself into the Spanx.

– I think maybe I have defeated the bladder infection with lots of water and cranberry juice.  At least, I don't notice any pain.

 - I am currently having a coffee and sitting in a Borders with free wi-fi.  That's always a plus.

 - The postpartum-randomly-ravenously-hungry seems to have dissipated, which means I can now return to having balanced, healthful, regular, reasonably-sized meals instead of randomly raiding the kitchen all day for whatever looks like it couls raise my blood sugar.  I think this will help me feel better, mentally at least.

 - I am now the proud owner of a box of absorbent pads for tucking into my bra.  Don't underestimate the importance of this one.

 -  Dinner is in the crock-pot. 

 - I just bought some new cookbooks.  (See above re: Borders)

Maybe I'll be weeping again tomorrow.  Stay tuned.

    So which cookbooks did you get? Have you checked out Bittman’s Kitchen Express yet? I have it on hold at the library.
