December Discoveries

Discovery #1: I apparently hurt my toe.

While removing the polish on my toenail I found that there was some "natural" black coloring under the nail. My first thought was: Oh my god, I've got mold under my nail! A very distressing thought. Then I saw that there was a small triangle surrounded by the blackness and figured that I must have hit it to make that pattern. I seem to recall hitting my toe pretty hard on something last month and hopping around Sophia's room... Goes to show how often I paint my toenails this time of year.

Discovery #2: Corelle does break.

Corelle dishes are resistant to chips and breaks, but not indestructible as I once believed. Apparently they cannot be dropped from atop a high chair onto the tile floor. In that case, they shatter into a million little shards.

Discovery #3: Sophia still cannot eat egg whites.

Though not allergic, it would appear that she still has an "intolerance" to egg whites (strictly a stomach problem). Not an issue when in foods, such as cakes and cookies. But turned out to be a little bit of an issue when we discovered that she likes fried eggs. Two or three mornings in a row resulted in some diaper rash that took two or three days to pass.

Discovery #4: I remembered why I finish all my Christmas shopping early.

Went to Kohl's a on the 23rd during the day to see if a sweater I liked was on sale. I was almost relieved when I found out that they didn't have one in my size. The lines were ridiculously long and the shelves were super messy. The music was blaring. I had planned on going to Target or WalMart to pick up some household items, but instead bailed on the whole shopping thing after a half-hour in Kohl's. I gave some random woman my $10 off coupon and went home. Crazy people.
