There are only two things I’m thinking about right now: how’s the baby, and how the hell am I going to get from here to wherever it is that I’m going next?

Both of those come with a lot of variables, like watching the wiggling of my belly, and worrying about how this whole layoff thing is going to affect Jill and Noah. But there’s not really anything useful or productive to say about those things yet.

I did buy a notebook with 6 color coded sections, in which I’m planning to record to-do lists for all of these chaotic areas of life, and where I’m going to try to do some imagining about what’s next.
