Hello World, I'm Erin

Hi. Let me reintroduce myself. I'm Erin.
For the past 3 nights, Miss Kate has gone from 2 night feedings to 1. I fall asleep at 10:30 and don't have to wake up until 4:30 a.m. or so. (Cue Hallelujah Chorus turned all the way up).
If you haven't seen me around lately as you are running errands or perhaps eating lunch out, it is because I have been SLEEPING. Anyone who says 39 is the new 29 is WRONG. 39 feels pretty old without sleep. 39 year-olds need sleep, are used to full nights of it and look pretty haggard when they don't get it.
So, I have been waking up at 4:30 with joy, so grateful to Kate for sleeping that long that I just want to love the heck out of her. Then, to wake up and smell that little cheek or neck is further reward.

OK. Erin Noelle just had the biggest stupid moment. I am laughing at my naivety and gullible nature and wish, wish I were smarter sometimes.

Spencer, coming in from cleaning out the boat: "Mom, we need another squirt bottle with that vinegar stuff to wipe the hard water spots. We only have one bottle for the 3 of us."

Erin: "Ok. Let me google this, because I can't remember if we use straight vinegar or what the vinegar/water mix percentage is."

Erin googling it: Hmm..This says 50/50.
On the same page, which describes "natural" ways to clean, Erin scans down the page and sees the words baking soda, lime juice, and yogurt.

Spencer as Erin is filling it with vinegar and water: "Hey mom, I also heard adding baking soda works really well."

Erin blankly: "Oh yeah. That is what I just read I think."

Erin goes to the cupboard and grabs baking soda and proceeds to pour in the bottle. She is surprised when it starts fizzing. "Whoa. This is good. This will work great."

Erin pours more water in the bottle and POW! VOLCANO FORCE ERUPTION SPEWING OUT OF SPRAY BOTTLE. SQUIRTING ALL OVER SINK, ERIN, WALLS, ETC.

Spencer laughing and laughing. "Mom, you are so dumb! I can't believe you just fell for that! Hello! Haven't you ever done the volcano thing with one of us for science?! Oh man, that was the best."

GRRRRRR.
